  1. I also wonder how much of a hurdle the big shops (that haven't been in operation) like MCS will have when things get back to normal, as a lot of their buyers went to other sellers.
  2. We should post a 'I never thought I'd sell this in a million years thread'. Most of my ebay sales are keys and in demand stuff, but I moved some items I thought would sit there forever.
  3. Same here. Despite leveraging into a new career and having a one year old at home, I've made huge strides disbursing and selling a collection of 10k comics I bought last year! I'm not participating in any FB group buys or sells, but I see a ton of activity there as well.....
  4. All of those comparative titles sell well in runs....this is why I was always harping against MSE 15, from my experience in selling at shows no one cared about the title at all - readers or collectors - eventually 15 sold because of the movie rumour. I sold 16-18 on ebay recently, so if you have a bunch of those books list them now....2-3 years ago, they'd sit forever.
  5. You can't say that for sure; who knows what the economy and the market will be like then....I was on GPA and did searches on several top tier keys and all were down in their most recent sales since last year....I wonder if Woogie ever sold that Marvel Special Edition 9.8, hopefully he did!
  6. Tomorrow when you wake up and see this post will you say you were being sarcastic?
  7. I'm guessing these are craigslist finds? Here on kijiji, anything that's obvious with have everyone and their dead grandmother show up, so the only edge is getting there first super early.
  8. Wow, you are really going after all the leads! Very diligent! What percentage that you go to are busts?
  9. Cops probably saw you and thought drug deal going down, not important like Covid, carry on!
  10. Great haul! How did some guy manage to sneak his way to the front!?
  11. Great haul, I really thought this story was going along the lines of...."I heard a crash and saw comics flying across the wind, and my reward for helping the driver that was injured was these comics!"
  12. I'll send it off to be graded and I promise i'll share the results here.
  13. I'm not sure if I would send this book off to be graded?
  14. 1.8-2.0, I don't know how much those coupon cutouts will drop the book's grade, but I can't see it grading above a 2.0 based on cover alone.
  15. I was going to say an 8.0-8.5 until I saw the crease, could that be pressed-out? 7.0 right now, beautiful book - great color!
  16. Ya, I just can't see that book going any higher with those stains.
  17. Eh? You think it's that high...there's a few spine ticks....I can grade modern era books to a tee, but when it gets to the older stuff and CGC becomes 'lenient' in their grading in the 8.5-9.6 grades....
  18. I don't know how or why those binder plastic holders for comics ever became a thing?
