$10 CDs have photos, yet a $300,000 comic collection is photo-less?

Probably the same clown that was trying to pass off 1st issue reprints as originals on ebay last year, operating under a new ID.

I am not sure about the legitamacy, but the price suggests the person has the goods - otherwise if they were trying to rip someone off (not that they are not a rip off merchant anyway :angry: ) without having the items I would not think that they would post such an outlandish starting price ;) .

How much is such a collection REALLY worth, by the way?

According to JS about $100,000 Australian in VG condition and even that figure may be over the top!!

Yeah, I don't think it would be that much.

I would say that 1-100 would be worth close to $50,000 in VG condition or better going on the prices on ebay and probably about $20,000 for the comics above that figure up to the present.

I read somewhere that JS. has 2-3 complete collections and has a valuation of $100,000 on each of them.

I don't know if they'd all be that as I read in an interview that many of them were badly damaged because past Frew staff had punched holes in them to store the books in ring binders. :blink:

Being valued at a particular price and actually getting someone to pay it are two totally different things.

I would suggest the only way that frew would get that figure is if they were insured for that amount and they were stolen, burnt or damaged significantly.
