You're assuming someone will pay a premium for a signed book, which isn't always the case.

Personally, I couldn't care less whether a book was signed or not and certainly wouldn't pay more for it. I believe many collectors feel this way unless of course the book was a non-modern age key issue signed by a creator, which this one is not.

In fact, some collectors view signatures as a defect.

I seriously doubt you can get more than $50 for it...it's just not a key book signature or not...CPG's guide for CGC books can be way off sometimes...D

[quote][b]batfan (4/22/2008)[/b][hr]dealers wouldnt give anything for it. they are looking to make as much profit. i would personally pay about 80 bucks for that.[/quote]

I'm not looking for a dealer to buy it. I don't know if dealers buy stuff as they're more interested in selling. I'm curious to know what they would sell it for (maybe I worded it incorrectly earlier) if they owned it so I could figure out what I'm selling mine for.

But I'm sure that $80 is too low since an unautograph graded one is slightly less than that.

Well I want to sell it to a co-worker who's giving to his brother for his birthday. However I don't want to sell it too low because I have plans on what I'm going to put the money towards. So I'm really looking around to find out what someone else would pay for it, then I'll give my co-worker a slight discount due to me knowing him.

Wonder if I can find some type of place where I'm surrounded by dealers and see what they would offer. Of course, I won't find that place soon enough but it would be great.

[quote][b]The Joker (4/21/2008)[/b][hr]Before you go asking for full price, does it have a green label? Or a yellow one? A green label will not net you full price because the signature is suspect, while the yellow label can net you more than full price. And also remember those prices you see in the "guide" are just that, guides.[/quote]

My CGC Signature Series has a yellow label with a bar code under the grading & title of book.

Thank you very much. That's exactly what I was looking for. Just wish it actually said it's for the one signed.. Now I don't feel bad asking for the full price (darn I wish I had that 9.9 or 10!)

Help w/ Wolverine: The Origin #1 Signed

RcJ2 — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 14:36:59 GMT

Hello. I'm new to the whole comic forum experience but I have a question. I have a copy of "Wolverine: The Origin #1" signed by Paul Jenkins & Andy Kubert. It's been CGC graded as 9.8 and has the Marvel Comics Certificate of Authenticity.

I can't seem to find a price for it and I have someone who offered me $40 for it but I think he's trying to pull a fast one on me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
