Corners look good, just a little rounded on the spine side.  Couple of spine tics, and the white is dirty.  As it, I would guess (7.5)(scroll over to see).  You can get it cleaned, and I think get a nice grade bump.  Nice copy!

FYI, it's a Marvel Feature #1, not Red Sonja #1

I'm such a newb. Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks, guys!

I enjoyed Man of Steel at the cinema and the Batman Vs Superman Ultimate Edition Blu-ray, and so this is encouraging for me.

Should be seeing it Monday afternoon.

I agree with you. Loved the Ultimate edition more than theatrical release.

If selling them on eBay will make me the most money, that's what I'll probably do.  Unless I find a local person who is interested in the whole enchilada. 

Thanks again for looking, sharing, advice, etc. I appreciate it!

Edited to add: If anyone local is interested, I'm down for offers as well. (Ontario, California)

There are a number of dealers and collectors in your area who frequent the boards.  I'd suspect one or more would be happy to come over and make an offer.  You'd make more money selling them yourself but that's a lot of work.

Thank you! That's what I thought.  But again, I'm only making a small percentage.  But I would feel wrong  just giving them away. Thanks again.

There is a forum (Hey buddy, can you spare a grade) where you can post and get opinions on what people think it will grade if submitted.  Post big pictures of front, back, and corners for best results.

Your bottom right corner looks pretty good, the top right is just a little rounded, and it looks like a spine tic that breaks color  to the left of spidey's shoulder under the price.  Very nice copy.

Hey! Yeah, I'm not looking to get these graded here. I just posted it because someone asked about it. I saw where to post photos in that thread, and I will do that if I decide I need that help. I just need help on where to go to sell these things. Thank you!!

122 is probably the most valuable depending on condition and 26 27 28 are like $40 books.

Here is is. Again, not asking for worth or grade, but thank you for your insight. I appreciate it.

Just now, kav said:

Yep.  It's considered 'name written on cover' and is worth less.  However sometimes you can sell em on ebay for more if a buyer doesn't understand this or doesn't care.

Gotcha. Thanks.

personally selling stuff like this the best luck I've had is selling them in lots on ebay.  You dont get the max amount as selling individually but you get way more than comic shop will give you.  Like 10 spiderman books per lot. show front cover pics describe as detailed as possible.  Main pic show all books spread out.  Do not assign grades-that would be a recipe for disaster for someone doesn't know much about comics.

I like this idea the best!

Just to give you an idea, here's just the Amazing Spider-man collection (with a few Sensationals)

Sorry about them being out of order! And sorry about getting the titles of these books wrong!

What he means by witnessed is witnessed then sent for slabbing in a CGC case by a CGC representative.  So there's a chain of custody showing the book was actually signed by creator.

Gotcha. So it matters not if they were witnessed as they signed and not graded right away? That devalues the book?

First, thank to the advent of grading, your signed comics aren't worth as much as they would be had they been witnessed and submitted.  That's not to say they're worthless, but they are worth less (than slabbed ones).

All of the signed copies were witnessed first hand. Not sure what submitted/slabbed means.  Thank you.

And location.

I will make a list. Ugh. So much work. Ha. But I guess that will help with the sale. Thanks for the advice!

The only thing i can say is these books are not in pristine condition.

And I said a few of the older ones are not. 

Hi, guys!! Total comic book newbie here!! Be gentle. 

Okay, so a friend of mine moved recently and couldn't take his HUGE comic book collection with him (4 comic book boxes full - he took 9 boxes with him) to Florida from CA. He asked me if I could expedite a bulk sale for him. He shockingly just wants to get rid of these and get whatever I get for them. I know NOTHING about comic books. I mean, I love my Marvel/DC movies, but that's where it begins and ends with me. At first I was going to do just that, but another friend of mine (who knows more about comic books than me) said DON'T DO IT!! We've discussed ideas on what to do next, but would love to get some 2nd and 3rd opinions on the subject. I know about grading your comics. And this friend has about 100 comic books maybe worth grading to get most of out selling them. Personally, I see it as a lot of work on my end with little return (20 percent of sales) I'm ready to just sell as bulk and give someone some fantastic issues. These comics are all in pristine condition. (maybe a couple of the older ones have wear edges). Among these books are signed copies, etc. For instance I have a signed #1 Spawn by McFarlane. I didn't count them yet, but I'd say I have about 500 comic books total. All ranging from The Amazing Spider-man, Spawn, Batman, X-Men, Logan, Wolverine, Superman, Daredevil, Red Sonja, Fantastic Four, X-Force, etc. About 10 of those are signed.  I just don't know how to start. I told him I was going to catalog them and see what we got. He was fine with that, but really, I know he doesn't want to grade them. He says he doesn't have the extra money to do that.  Personally, I wanted to see if I could grade 10 of them. Because I think he has a few winners in his collection. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!! I've enclosed photos of some of the comics. Again, I'm not asking you to tell me their worth, I just need advice on where to start my process of selling these. Thanks again!!
