Houdini Variants, the Bastard Sons of Under Ordered Books
It hasn’t been long since I made the switch from collecting major moderns to hunting the variants and in that time I learned to appreciate the value of under ordered ratio variants. I decided to do some
research and some “market analysis” (I’m by no means an expert, I’m just looking at the numbers.) Some Variants require some pretty funky ordering, for example order 90% of one book to receive an x amount of another variant. Some variants may just require you to order 25 copies to get one variant
(1:25) or order 100 to get one (1:100) and etc. Point being, that there are some really great variants that are super hard and rare to find even on eBay because most stores didn’t meet the requirements to receive these elusive variants that are otherwise known. No many of them show up on the secondary markets, they have vanished like a magician. Let’s take a small look at some recent “Houdini variants.” Continue reading “Houdini Variants, the Bastard Sons of Under Ordered Books”
