Spidey I think is the weakest of all 3.

HaHA, Spiderman sucks.

WOW! I haven't looked at the priced on this guy for some time!

The only reason the piece skyrocketed because it's been quite a while since one has been up on Ebay. People were overbidding the hell out of that auction and they retracted their offers (Highest bid, than retracted I saw was over $1800). When they were more commonly, showing up on Ebay they went between $800-1000. Lot's of antsy buyer's these days. Impulse buying at it's best.

Sometime you gotta jump on things when you can.

Last year I was thinking 700 was stretching it for him and was so wishing I was around when he originally sold.
Least now I can be glad I do not have to pay over 1k for him.

Lol sounds like asking and not going rate. I was looking for one last year and managed to get one for 750 but fell apart when the seller acted like drama queen

 

[PermaG]

Yea, I got super lucky and through asking on these forums. Can even find it in this thread, I just happened to find someone trying to sell him.

Thanks again to Ivo-000

what a coincidence...I was selling one and the prospective buyer acted like a drama queen too.

Not sure what we are laughing about?

With a click of about 3 buttons on Ebay so you can see the last 2 SOLD for $1,525.00 and $1,950.00. And those were regs!

They don't go up for sale often for a reason. It's that good of a statue. If they do start going up for sale more often, the prices will be over 1500 regurlarly now. The market price has been set.

Wow glad I jumped on this when I did. I think I paid around $660 for this and $450 for Carnage just around a year ago.

 

[Asdf]

Damn, the price has surely gone way up

Wondering, with the way XM is going and what I am reading about their quality, if they ever do a Venom, how he would turn out.
Then how that would compare / affect this piece.

It may effect it slightly but I don't think much. XM is going to have under 1000 pieces and it is going to start off very close to the $1,000.00 mark for us in North America.

Yeah, this is true. An XM Venom won't be cheap and clock in pretty close to a grand for most North American collectors. Also, if it looks great, it'll sell out quickly due to the low ES and then the aftermarket prices will climb pretty quickly on it. With an ES less than a 1000 for an XM Venom and SSC's Venom COM having only 1450 pieces in total, I don't see the COM dropping in price anytime soon. Very glad I have one already. I did pay $650 shipped for mine, but now, that's looking like a bargain. At least mine is an EX and a Marvel Sample to boot. It's an AWESOME looking statue.

I sold mine for $1000 + a statue a few months ago.

I would be excited with all the switch out options they have. Lots of display options
