  1. I have yet to have a comic that I have sent damaged in the shipping...but I am knocking on wood... I use a modified cardboard sandwich, with a little bubble wrap on the corners....It would be very difficult to bend that.....the post person not only must ignore my instructions on both sides, but really expend a good deal of effort...
  2. I think that's cheap...I sold 1a in a couple of hours after listing for 30... 1b is by far rarer and more sought after...
  3. Good luck with that, I just sold a 1-3 regular for 55...and I'm pretty sure I could have gotten 60....sold in a couple of hours Okay I'm in regular contact with a couple of my LCSs and they are telling me that their Tales of Honor covers are all bad....I went to the big one around and found a few good ones...but cover D seems to be generally bad.... This comic has Hawkins, a video game, a movie, seems pretty small print runs judging by my LCSs....and it's very cheap still....I didn't buy a lot cause the story seemed a little dull, but first issue you know....
  4. I sold a set for 54.99 1-3....I even kinda wish I had listed it higher as it sold in a few hours.... Not sure why this is SO hot....I wonder if someone knows something and it's connected to ECCC?
  5. I finally sold one for 4.50...minus ebay raping...but still!!! only 15 more to go.... Now watch if it gets picked up I'll be trying to get that one back...
  6. Well maybe...but this book seems pretty popular among people who actually picked it up...not hearing many people say..read it and oh hum... Prior to a show announcement it had a small premium for #1...that gives me hope...but for whatever reason, though, at the moment it can still be picked up for cheap...people been saying they were tired of this for a while now...but then sandman and preacher happened.... I think that each step in the process brings it's own price spike...a cast member gets proposed...spike...a pilot is green lit...spike...to me it seems that speculation is accelerating...news generates interest, interest generates demand... Now this book has a pretty limited print run, relatively...about 7,000 a cover...
  7. So now that it's official that Zero is going to be a show...actually written by alex kot....how come there isn't a price jump....is it just too new and people gotta learn about it slllllowly?
  8. I dunno why you like phantom so much....they always seem to be worth less then their non variant counterparts.... Ghost on the OTHER hand...
  9. Is that pot smoke your blowing up my skirt? http://www.ebay.com/itm/321315506125?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 So much shill it makes me ill
  10. Speaking of Alias heating up . . . . linky-dink That's a good read. Nice sale, rabnuD. (thumbs u It was a best offer acceptance right? so we still dunno how much it went for....I just raised my price but they all passed me over and I have one for 17.99
  11. I think signing a comic adds about 5-10 dollars from someone famous like eastmen or hotish...but that can all depend, I got something chadwick signed and I don't think it'll bring 5 bucks, on the other hand I got Wiebi to sign some stuff and it goes up about 5 bucks? The little sketch is known as a 'remark' and it can add an equal amount to the signature 5-10 I would guess....having a full set of something gives you an easier sell and means you can ask for a little more... I'd try for 125 and titrate the price down...
  12. I heard that bluegrass.... should be lawsuits aflyin
  13. 60 bucks for a 1:100 I have some keyish batmans 1:100s that are 30-40 bucks AND not selling quickly, so I would say that that's doing pretty well.... DC's idea of just taking to color away and making it rare is a poor incentive cover...how about just getting a nice cover off a popular artist? getting Stan to sign it or something...
  14. detective comics seems to be 1/2 to 2/3s the value of batman new 52
  15. Oh god... What happened to midtowncomics shipping? The just sent me 20 comics in a flimsy priority envelope...all the corners got banged
  16. seeing a lot of interest in 47 ronin comic probably cause of the movie....it's a good test case for me to see what might happen with my box of ' don't sell until a movie or tv show actually comes out'...full of rachel's rising, clone, think tank....
  17. I saw the colorist working on #8 at a cafe....we had a chat about how cool this series was...he did not mention that it was ending...but comiserated with me about the 20 issues of #1 I have in my closet... Seemed like a very nice and down to earth guy.... Course I walked around the block and saw someone working on adventure time, not to mention that Christmas, Brandon Graham and Brisson all live around there too... Seems like Vancouver is indie central...
  18. So let me get this straight...you'll give me 60 bucks to take this off your hands? how about 70...
  19. Is the alpaca saying "meow"? Is this a kids drawing? Or an adult trying to look like a kid drawing....
  20. hard to do but I keep comming back to... Why use blue pencil if your just going to copy it and then pen it? Blue is used cause it doesn't show up on some copies right? Or are they just so used to using blue...
  21. Ask the artist or agent. This. Or if you have a specific question about the process, ask in the Original Art forum - lots of guys knowledgable about the process plus some creators occasionally chime in. Those are some mighty fine ideas...cept the one where you say I should contact the agent....you do know that agent coulson is not a real person...right
