Selling my comics

[sps1000]

Since I'm going to University in the fall and I'm no longer really into comic books I thought it was time to sell off my comics (except for one short box). So here is a link to help out a fellow Cascader if you see anything you like:

Oh yeah by the way the Civil War, Ultimate comics, and All Star Superman, and the Amazing Spidey comic are my listings. Someone else is also selling comics through the middle man so I will update you guys on which ones I'm auctioning off.

EDIT: thanks Gray

Because I'm generous, SPS, I went to TinyUrl.com to make your link smaller and more manageable.

And here it is, in a linkable form: Auctioned Comics

Hope that helps you out some.

Thanks Gray. I forgot about that site.

I'm very interested in what Ultimate Spider-Man #1 is going to go for. Wizard lists it at around 100-150 dollars on average. I'd be very happy to get half of that. One good thing is that I won't have problems getting rid of that.

More of my comics are up. Some Wolverine comics, Captain America, Spider-Man, and a relisting of my All-Star Superman comics. All of which are starting out at $3.99 apiece (except for the ASS comics as those will be at $.99). Yes I will be talking to them tomorrow because I asked them to start everything at a penny unless it's over a couple comics then it would be listed at $.99

Good luck selling your comics.

Will sold his a few weeks ago, but we just took the whole lot (3 long boxes, 7 short boxes) to a local comic store. The owner would only offer us $420 in cash, but $640 in credit so we went with credit and got a lot of D&D books. Finally upgraded to 3.5, got 19 new books.

Will had a lot of good Marvel comics, some that would probably sell for $100 to $200 individually, but we didn't want to be left with 95% of the comics that were unsellable so that's why we accepted the store's offer. He took a lot of stuff off our hands that probably won't sell. And in return, we got books that we'll use much more actively and share with our friends.

and it seems with this middle man I won't be able to get rid of my comics. I'm hopeful though. If this batch doesn't sell I'm going to cancel my agreement with them and sell them myself.

[SilvaShado]

Yeah, from what research I did before Will sold his comics - you either do it all yourself and take the risks of not selling some of it OR take it to a place that will buy your whole collection from you, then it's up to them to make a profit. There's pros and cons to each way, you just have to figure out what works best for you.

Good luck with it, and let us know how it turns out.

I've just seen them, but I must say that these comics aren't what i normally read, sorry. I'm more into european things like Asterix and Lucky Luke.
