Owner's Description
1983 ACTION COMICS #1 SUPERMAN REPRINT 9.8 A RARE COMIC. SCORE!!!! SEARCHING THROUGH EBAY STUMBLED ACROSS THIS 1983 REPRINT AND ACTUALLY WAS A BIT SURPRISED WHEN I FOUND IT FOR SALE. WASNT REALLY LOOKING FOR ANOTHER CGC 9.8 COPY BECAUSE ALL THAT ARE FOR SALE ARE ALWAYS OVERPRICED. HAD TO LOOK TWICE TO MAKE SURE IT REALLY WAS 1983. CLICKED ON THE IMAGE AND SURE ENOUGH, IT WAS A REAL 1983. THIS YEAR IS THE RAREST REPRINT OF THE ENTIRE SERIES OF ACTION COMICS # REPRINTS. IT IS ALSO THE "SEVENTH" COPY CGC HAS GRADED TOTAL AND WAS RECENTLY SLABBED. ONE POPPED UP ON THE CENSUS AND A FEW DAYS LATER REMOVED THEN ADDED AGAIN. IM 100% CERTAIN THIS IS # 7. AFTER LOOKING AT THE AUCTION LISTING AGAIN SURPRISED ONLY HAD A $499 OFFER ASKING PRICE WITH FREE SHIPPING. THIS WAS GETTING BETTER BY THE SECOND. THAT ACTUALLY WAS A VERY REASONABLE PRICE. DIDNT NEED ANOTHER FOR THE SET BUT ONE OF SEVEN, AND THE LAST 9.8 GRADED WAS IN DECEMBER 2016. SO VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND THESE IN HIGH GRADE, AND VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND WORTHY COPIES TO BE GRADED.
$$$$ ARE TIGHT SO THE EXTRA EXPENSE? WORTH IT NOW? I HAVE PASSED ON ANOTHER COPY FOR THAT EXACT REASON AND HAVE BEEN KICKING MYSELF EVER SINCE WHEN WAS OUTBID IN THE $260 RANGE. ADDING ANOTHER 9.8 COPY WOULD BE WORTH IT IF THE PRICE WAS RIGHT. AFTER THINKING ABOUT IT DECIDED TO GO FOR IT WITH A LOWER OFFER AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. LOOKED OVER THE SELLERS OTHER LISTINGS AND COMPLETED LISTINGS AND AGAIN SURPRISED NOT A TRUE COMIC BOOKSELLER. HAD ALL KINDS OF OTHER LISTINGS AND FEW COMICS. THAT WAS A HUGE PLUS COMICS WERE NOT THE MAIN LINE OF SALES. THOUGHT FOR SURE THEY DIDNT KNOW HOW RARE THIS COMIC ACTUALLY IS. BINGO! OFFER IMMEDIATELY ACCEPTED! THIS DAY JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER. ONE OF SEVEN COPIES KNEW YEARS AGO THERE WOULD NOT BE MANY MORE GRADED...100% CORRECT ON THAT PREDICTION. ONLY TWO 9.8s GRADED IN TWO YEARS. SURPRISED MY OFFER ACCEPTED MORE THAN $200 LESS THAN HIS ASKING PRICE, REALLY NEED ANOTHER COPY, NO / BUT NOW OWN 3 OF THE CGC 9.8 COPIES, ONE MISLABELED, COOL FOR THE SET. GREAT FIND EVEN IF IT IS ANOTHER ONE...ITS A COOL AND RARE ONE.
DECIDED TO USE ORIGINAL PICTURES FROM THE SELLER`S AUCTION FOR THIS COMIC, KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE BAD PICTURES HELP GET A GREAT PRICE...THIS COMIC WAS NOT LISTED FOR SALE FOR VERY LONG ON EBAY, DIDNT HAVE MANY OTHERS WHO EVEN HAD A CHANCE TO BUY IT...GREAT SCORE AGAIN!
