This second printing example of Batman #490 is the first Universal 9.8 graded by CGC. I tried searching on and off for raw copies online previously but I never found any suitable candidates for grading. I was also the only bidder in the eBay auction for this book, most likely due to an opening bid of $99.99. When factoring in the costs of pressing, grading, shipping and time spent searching, paying $99.99 plus tax and shipping was only about $30 more than if I had found a raw example and paid to have it pressed and graded, not a bad in my book.
