Superman No.1 at the thrift store C'mon! it can't be real

I just stopped by an ARC and see in the show case this Action Comics 1938 Superman No.1 issue. They're asking $149.00 for it. I didn't even bother to have a closer look. The original price on the cover reads 50¢ US, 70¢ CAN & 30¢ UK. That isn't what would be on the original price of this issue ?? I'm guessing it's a reissue? Would it be worth the price they're asking?

Yes, definitely a re-issue. First issue was 10¢

At first glance, it looks like a 1988 reprint. A closer inspection should confirm this. These are in demand, but I have no idea on a price point.

Who ever priced that must have been on drugs. Ten bucks tops in that condition.

No kidding. Now some poor sap will buy it thinking it's one of the Holy Grails of comic books.
