❄️ ANOTHER Top 25 COLD Comic Books ❄️ // Prices Dropped over HALF 🥶 Pt 2

[@day304productions]

Apparently, no one told the sellers on eBay about these price drops.

[@FloridianDemonComics]

for real! i was trying to buy the xmen annual 14 for around the 150 price just now lmao. still asking 350 ish

[@aussieblokespeedy]

You got that right! Sellers are still asking 3k for Ultimate Fallout 4’s in 9.4 lol😂

[@mandofoe7447]

Lol 😂

[@bryanincognito3982]

You took the words right out of my mouth

[@Hootch2099]

Why won’t Predator 1 9.8 drop???

[@dangreg7035]

There is a moral to this buy the books you want and enjoy at a price you are happy with and can afford, way I have done and buy a spec book for under 50 quid and you can't lose

[@Paul-ue7fo]

Alias, Hulk 180 and SIKTC 1. Those were what I wanted. They just happened to go down in value. You are absolutely right.

[@gregwait3553]

9.8 sales are expensive! 9.0, 9.2 9.4 and the lovely 9.6 are so much cheaper and still have that great look! I just bought a Incredible Hulk 340 at a 9.0 at a very affordable price and it looks great in the collection. Plus it will continue to go up In price! So keep on Hunting!

[@timdanner2596]

"Poor bastard" is right on that Eternals book. I remember commenting somewhere online in 2021 prior to the Eternals release that I wasn't going anywhere near those books. Just seemed way too risky.

[@BrooksSeanRobinson]

It's kind of scary watching prices fall like that, even for non-speculator collectors because wanting to buy one feels like trying to catch a falling knife. This does demonstrate how ridiculously high prices were getting, far beyond their historic value.

[@jakeproven256]

I hope Carange dosen't find out his key issues are being under valued, because he'll come after the people that are doing it and I'll say this much, unless Spider-man or Venom shows up to stop him, it's gonna end really badly for those people.

[@BStryker]

Hi James. I was the winning bidder of the MCP 72 9.8 for 187.50. Good to see I only paid 22% of the high sale. Keep up the great content

[@dennisvaughan8456]

Great video. It would be interesting to also see if the FMV on raws of theses books have drooped comparativly to the slabs.

[@nathanedwards4728]

the guy that paid $800 for the #360 must be weeping into his Rice Krispies

[@emmanuelcabrera1813]

Those are some big drops. I really like this series! I mostly do raw books but I did pick up a few slabs that I've been waiting to drop. I got ASM 276 9.6 for $23 (you can check it on last sold on eBay). I actually sniped it and I thought I would pay its 2021 value $50-60. The slab is in excellent condition too. Be well!

[@edduran2571]

Appreciate your honesty about declining prices… you are honest about Fomo. There’s a lot of dishonest influencers (Jernos Comics for example ) that are promoting comic books knowing that they will probably dump after a bad Disney MSheU movie. Keep up the good work

@Ed Duran I disagree with ur assertion that Jerno's comics is dishonest. He always states IMHO, do ur own research, buy what u like, etc...Just saying.

Stick with gold and silver, and very EARLY bronze, and you won't lose your shirt next time.

[@300baud]

MCU speculators are like stock day traders. Sure, you might make a big hit here and there, but most people are going to lose their pants. If you're going to buy comics as an investment then I think it might be best to consider long term instead of short term, but to each their own.

[@leerogers5318]

I love the fact that you are doing these. More KZbin vloggers should be doing this. It is a nice way for collectors to invest in slab speculation for the future. I use these videos to buy slabs at a discount that I highly believe will have a great ROI within the next 5 to 10 years.

[@MintHunterComics]

Honestly this video was a blast to research!

[@fnulnu8243]

Love these videos! Every time you show one I'm interested in, I get on ebay and start looking. Appreciate the tips!

[@MintHunterComics]

Glad you like them!

[@davidkennedy6612]

Many of these prices were just stupid anyway, way too much. So many comics falling in price but I think many of these are still too much and will keep falling. $1182 for ams annual 18???? $600 is still too much. But the x men annual Gambit was an absolute steal.

[@Tom8683-r2b]

People spending 45 grand and 11 grand on a comic have the money to throw away. Always, buy on the dip or after the movie hype dies down. I'm shocked people haven't learned this by now.

[@Louis_NYC2AZ]

Check that Monica Rambeau price drop, something is off 1100 to 600 is not 67%

THE VAST MAJORITY OF BOOKS ARE NEWER ISSUES YET SLEEPER ARE PAST BY PRIME EXAMPLE IS ADVENTURE OF GOLDEN AGE BATMAN DEATH. AND SOME OF THE MARVELS LIKE MARVEL AGE 19 WITH THE FIRST SPIDERMAN IN IN BLACK.

I regret not selling EVERY COMIC THAT I OWN one year ago.

[@offcenterideas]

It's insane how far Ninja Turtles books have fallen. I've been snagging keys for a fraction of what I would've been paying had I started buying when I got the urge to start collecting TMNT last year.

[@Terbmagic4]

The reality is no one under the age of 26 is a fan at all.

[@papasplaceofultimatecoolness]

Yeah, that ASM 344 sale was shocking. I picked it up on my radar at what I thought was a bargain about 2 months ago for $150 and thought that was the floor. Just wow.

[@leeniren3706]

What goes up must come down the question is what goes down does it ever go up?

[@SamuraiKidMusic]

Volatile market dang

[@MegaFrankgarcia]

Hey great video, a few of your mentions I have been able to get at real deal prices, but not CGC's, I tend to go for grail's in that situation. I picked up that Batman 567 for under $20.00 NM, those ASM's you mentioned about Carnage was good info, I was eyeing that one ASM book with Carnage & Spiderman locked in combat, white cover it's hovering between $100 -$150 now but maybe I'll wait on that one. I am eyeing CGC Vengence of Bain, I passed on a 9.6 for about $100 to pursue other titles at the time, but yes that book seems to be price trending down, but I think it will always be a collectible book. Thanks

[@neoknight3320]

Would you say that there is a comic bust coming in the near future, or is all ready here on graded comics? Cause those are some big drops on BIG books.

[@shawnmccann9762]

Again, love these vids. Hard to imagine u could buy 4 or 5 of some of these books for the price someone paid for one. I mean damn!!

[@derektitov6667]

Pretty crazy to see how a combination of the luxury item market (collectibles etc) crashing and REALLY BAD MARVEL MOVIES can affect the prices of comics so drastically. No surprise all the Carnage books are down despite their significance. That movie was a stinker through and through.

[@szandorsengers]

saw that one too :)

[@hankscorpion9939]

Some comics were at crazy highs, and now back where they should be. Others are now at crazy lows, and its time to grab'em!!

[@Joeh1154]

A nice presentation. Thank you for posting. Is anyone really surprised? Yea, I didn't think so either. IMO, with the exception of a few titles shown, most of these books have not stood the true test of time. Every fanboy knows 2021 was the most aberrant year for comic prices during the lockdown of America. Tons of spec buyers who couldn't care less about the genre and just wanted to make a buck. Hundreds of thousands of books printed. Plenty of variant covers that nobody could keep up with. FOMO was at a new all time high, along with MCU movies propping up prices artificially. Now, reality sets in with books finding their more realistic prices and it's an opportunity to buy for true readers/collectors. I look at some of these current price points and I think, I'd rather buy a Silver age gem for the same money or even less and have a nice semi grail from titles like Tales to Astonish, Tales of Suspense, Journey into Mystery, Strange Tales, Daredevil and even Fantastic Four and Romita era ASM. And more after the double story books split like early Captain America, Iron Man and Hulk. But that's just my 2 cents and to each their own. Best to all.

[@EricTeske]

Man James, this video was so cold that it kept freezing up as I watched it! 🥶

[@EveryDayAStoryCollects]

Another great video James, but it got me thinking. Did you look to see if any of these books were Newstand at the highs vs the lows?

[@charliedogg7683]

Hi James, loved the first cold comics video. The thing that always strikes me about ASM #328, apart from the great poses McFarlane gives the two characters, is grey Hulk's green tongue. Huge money for Incredible Hulk #180, and huge drop. MCP #72 is now where it should be, it was hugely overpriced last year. The drop with Savage She-Hulk #1: partly a reflection of dissatisfaction with the show? All this just goes to show that there is still volatility in the market when it comes to Copper and Modern books.

[@philayling4398]

WOW GREAT INFO KEEP THE SHOWS GOING

[@timkiernan1277]

Some people on eBay still have it as 800, and when I make a offer of 360 I get declined 😂

[@israelcohen698]

I was eyeballing Teen titans 12 (1st batman who laughs) for 3 years but was hesitant as a graded 9.8 would vary between 1000-800$. I finally bought one but heres the catch, it was being sold for 475$ and i offered 400$ and got it at that price. plus shipping, it came up to 430$.

[@TacticalJ83]

I need to send this video to all the eBay sellers who did not get the memo 😏 still charging 2021 prices

[@iceman2796]

Great Video! Wondering if anyone has taken into account the tax situation if these books are purchased on Ebay??? A few years ago books were not taxed. Prices are going to continue to plummet on eBay especially on books over a grand. That extra $100 in taxes or more is crippling especially when there is no tax at a convention or LCS.

[@berardoferrari]

LCS has to charge tax, its a store.

[@iceman2796]

@@berardoferrari You are incorrect. The LCS doesn't have to charge tax and they don't. I just bought a back issue today and they didn't charge a tax. I've never been charged tax at an LCS and I've been collecting for over 40 years. You don't get charged tax and a Convention either. Comic books are periodicals, you don't charge tax on them just like books and newspapers. I've never been charged a tax buying back issues on comic book dealer websites either. That includes Metropolis, World Wide, Quality, and Superworld comics. Taxes are charged on eBay exclusively because of a new law just for them. In reality we should all file suit against the federal government as eBay is put at disadvantage when it comes to comic book sales.

[@berardoferrari]

@@iceman2796 well you would be wrong in canada and i suspect in NY and california which are all tax heavy.

[@iceman2796]

@@berardoferrari You can suspect whatever you want, your wrong. In the United States your local LCS, Conventions, Newsstands, and Book Stores don't charge tax on periodicals. The brand new issue of whatever Comic Book you're buying comes out either monthly, every other month, quarterly, or bi monthly. That makes it a periodical. Newspapers and magazines are the same, the state doesn't matter. As far as Canada goes you didn't mention that when you called me out. That's a fact you might want to mention as Canada is a different country which has completely different tax laws. BTW I live in Illinois which has an overall higher tax burden than California or NY when all taxes are included.

[@iceman2796]

@@berardoferrari After my last reply I decided to look up my answer. Looks like I'm right and wrong at the same time. New Comic Books are not taxable in all states as they are still considered periodicals as I stated multiple times. The federal government in the United States doesn't collect taxes on Comic Books at all. Back issues are considered collectibles and can have state taxes collected starting in 2019. There are all types of exemptions. Internet sales crossing state lines seems to be where taxes are collected most commonly. I've never had taxes collected on any online purchases I've made minus eBay. Illinois seems to have lots of exemptions. New York which you mentioned seems to have the least. In person sales at Conventions seem to be exempt unless the seller has a physical presence in the state year round where the sale is made, etc, etc, etc. Either way have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I wish you all the best in 2023 and the rest of your life. I don't want to keep posting on Mint Hunter's page. I enjoy his videos
