Autograph Question

killerturtle · 07-10-2012, 02:43 PM

Will a comic book signed by Stan Lee (Captain America #108) on the cover carry a premium over one that is not signed?
If everything else being equal i.e..both graded CGC 9.6 other then the auto stating "Gold label Signature Series"?
How do collectors feel about autos on the cover vise no auto?
Thanks

Captain America #108 CGC 9.6 SS STAN LEE WHITE PAGES Highest Graded 1 of 1 9.8- | eBay

I assume this is the book you have,purchased on the bay ?

You are correct sir. You guys are fast I just bought it last night.
You think 3-400? Thats not bad.
Other then needing it for my collection I think the auto is not a bad thing.
It is the first Stan Lee auto I have acquired.

It's not a key issue, IMO,but it is in pristine condition and auto'ed by the man himself to boot.
It's financial upside is there so keep it

Ebay is what someone WILL pay (most of the time lol) THAT day or up to that day. The thing not factored in is SOME people miss the auctions and other's do not realize they want it till it is gone.
How many times have you looked at completed listings,see a book, a price and go "Well #@#@#@#@, I would have paid that and more"
Same scenario

I think 350-400 is a solid value with nothing but UP UP UP in it's future and NOTHING can make the book go down...short of nuclear war

I'm going to say it's worth about $250-$300...right in the ball park of what you paid. Stan Lee signs a ton of stuff...now if you wait a few years it might increase. One thing going against it is that its a non-key issue that is signed. There's modern comics that has Stan's auto and no affiliation with (since he didn't write the current moderns) that would sell for more because the are "key" issues or varieties.

Still a nice pick-up!
