This speculator wasted a great deal of money on a marginal key. These big books will continue to make a big splash far into the future. Why not buy Amazing Spider-Man #1 grade 4.0 or better yet, a low-grade Amazing Fantasy #15. What a waste of money for this book at $18,000 down, rough estimate. If that isn’t enough two make you spit up your JD and Coca-Cola then I don’t know what would! The buyer paid the best offer, which we don’t know the exact price, my guess is $18,000 give or take. (This Book sold on in the range of $24,999. By instituting this perfect grade, the seller has set the pinnacle for this book going forward for others to try to achieve. The consequence for all lower grades of Venom like the measly 9.8 they are simply run of the mill and not as unique to own. I wonder how many copies of this book were sent to CGC before the seller hit a “perfect 10?” No, this is simply delusional wishful thinking appealing to a crowd that has the money to pay for perfection. Perfection? Even the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen in my life did not rank perfect 10s. The concept of a perfect 10 is flawed in the first place. This was “lethal speculation” pure and simple. Why? The purchase was for a perfect copy of Venom: Lethal Protector #1 with a grade of 10.0 mint. As recently, as of March 3, 2022, some “speculator” purchased Venom: Lethal Protector #1 for around $24,999! Yep, a down payment on a house for a minor key and book that is barely 30 years old. The interesting thing about comic book speculation is that the moves get crazier the longer you observe the comic book market.
