The charity bid for this piece was $8875. What do you think it will get now?

From what I remember CGC certified them all as part of the deal with Jim Lee.

Final bid on the Red Death $5,655.00. That's a $3220 loss from the original sale price of $8875, not including the extra 15% eBay/PayPal overall cut (i.e., $848). That's a 45% loss in just a few months. Ouchie.

Well it’s also a very odd and niche character . Something tried and tested but classic Lee I’m sure gets it’s fair share of cash. Red Death ..... who cares about a character that’s one year old

so with all the crap going on at DC what do you guys think the odds of these things ever actually being used as covers are?

I thought we found information that they did get a tax write-off.

Wasn't the original winner of this auction the same guy who was buying/requesting all of the obscure Batman versions? If it was, I'm wondering why he flipped this piece.

I checked it out when I first saw the auction and I do not believe that the guy who requested the character is the same person who won the original auction. I don't have direct knowledge so I could be wrong about that.
