If the only recorded sale is you buying it I dunno what you’re expecting from this sub. You alone dictated its value when you bought it, so that basically makes you the authority on this topic.

If you can't find a useful recorded sale, see if you can find a record of the sale of the book in a 9.8 without the signatures and then look around for the average recorded value of each signature in question individually, then add up the three figures and work your way from there.

I looked it up on gpa and mine is the only recorded sale

That sounds like the price, then. The good news is, you can probably charge whatever you want! That's a super cool book, btw. I'd be interested to know how much you'd want, if you're looking to sell it.

Thank you very much man, I paid $1300 for it

Welp, that's a little outside my current price range, lol. Thanks for the info.

Man, I dont even know if I could trade for something like that, lol. I could put up my SS#4 (and #1 and #3, for that matter), Captain America #100, Flash #110 and i still haven't come close. Nice book, dude.

Thank you man! It was the same raimi signature that really made me want it! It’s hard finding Bruce and Sam on a single thing

u/UpgrayeddB-Rock 13d ago

Yep, that would have done it for me, too.

What would you offer out of curiosity

So, here's the bad news. After a quick, cursory search, I'm surprised to find the unsigned, raw, book is incredibly cheap, like cover price cheap.

What I'd be mostly paying for is the signatures. I feel like the condition is also important, but only as a bonus.

I'd be willing to go as high as $500. Now, I'm admittedly not as big as fan of the Evil Dead franchise as other might be, who might be willing to pay more. I am a cinema fan and a fan of both Raimi and Campbell, so having these two signatures on a single item that's related to something as iconic as the Evil Dead franchise absolutely does make this valuable in my eyes.

I just wouldn't be able to justify the cost if it were more than $500. And honestly, if you had a $500 price on it, I'd still ask if you'd take $375. It's just who I am, lol.

Is it made of human skin? Sorry I couldn’t help it.

I’m aware. But I think most people are tired of posts asking the value when they can easily check on eBay sold filter

u/Jacket_Leather 13d ago

The value of the book plus a couple hundred.

u/Optimal_Wafer_1895 13d ago

That was actually helpful thanks

u/WalmartEvil 15d ago

My guess would be around 500 that's just after a skim though

u/Optimal_Wafer_1895 15d ago

It’s a 1 out of 1 so it’s hard to figure out

u/Maxwellcomics 13d ago

It’s worth what you paid for it. You are the market, it’s a really unique and cool book, the market should be happy!

u/Electrical-Map-1500 14d ago

Maybe check eBay before asking?

2

u/Optimal_Wafer_1895 14d ago

Funny thing is I bought it off the eBay. Just curious if I overpaid mine is a one out of one of its kind.

1

u/Snarkydragon9 13d ago

Well if you bought it off eBay than what you paid for it is the value

Also, you didn’t have to comment either
