Orc Island #1

Orc Island #1 shows $75.

I’m only seeing a couple of recent sales, neither of which confirm a grade.

But there are several NM copies for sale on eBay for a few dollars.

Are you able to find any confirmed sales to help adjust that value? Thanks!

TLDR: you are correct - the $75 value was based on an old sale with a pin included, which historically has gone for a premium. The sale has since been moved to a specific “pin included” “variant” (cover is the same).

A few things on the info and concepts in your post:

  • There’s a version of Orc Island #1 with a pin and one without. Sales with the pin included have historically gone for notably more. The value you’re seeing is old - from before we were auto-differentiating sales with and without the pin. The sale has since been moved to the “pin included” variant.

  • It’s important to note that the value is greyed out. That means the FMV is based on data that is over several months old.

  • In auto-matching sales, the condition is important. You showed sales that do not have any sort of NM, 9.4, 9.2, VF/NM, 9.0 designation, so those sales won’t appear in the NM bucket. The last designated NM sale we recorded was in April 2024.

  • The NM bucket has the most sales, so it’s considered the Most Common Condition for raws. You did not designate a grade for your copy, so you get the MCCFMV (Most Common Condition Fair Market Value).

Thanks for drawing our attention to this matter.
