Aloha,
You won't beleive the prices that Silver Age comics are going for.
The September ComicConnect Event Auction concluded with a strong sell-through and set some record-breaking prices.

"Bidding was aggressive; a reassuring sign for the economic health of collectible investments during a tumultuous week on Wall Street," stated ComicConnect co-founder, Stephen Fishler. "Though there were some deals to be had in the auction, overall we saw very healthy prices being realized by consignors."



ComicConnect would like to thank all the members of the site and the collecting community for their participation in the auction. It would be an understatement to say that the response was more than anticipated, and support from friends in the hobby was very much noted and appreciated.
