Ultra-Rare Spiderman 184 All Detergent Sets New Record
Ebay stalwart seller zillaf4 auctioned off the extremely rare Amazing Spider-Man 184 All Detergent Promotional Giveaway Variant copy with the sticker attached. With 3 or 4 known copies, this is an extremely rare book. Given the huge number of Spider-Man completionist collectors, this auction was bound to bring a trainwreck. Twenty-seven bids later, a hammer price of $1525 won the book. This result has to be a record for a VG to Finish bronze-age Spider-Man comic book. Here are the details on the listing and the book. You may not ever see another.
Two things make the book special (and by special, I mean compared to a regular issue 184 in the same condition which would be lucky to sell in a quarter bin). The first is that the All Detergent sticker is still attached to the front. You can see it in the bottom left of the cover. The second is that this is a price variant book. Note that there is a blank white box next to the issue number in the upper left corner. The regular issue is printed with the usual 35 cent price.
