  1. In this market I'm sure it will go bananas but it is worth it to mention that SME 15 was part of high grade warehouse finds many years back. Will that have any effect?
  2. Did you but it from Kal? Kal-El? Superman?? He bought it from Superman????
  3. Yes, there is a market. Try looking at ebay sold listings to get an idea
  4. Yes they do grade graphic novels. See the image below that I borrowed from an ebay listing. They are submitted under the magazine tier. If you want to have thicker trade paperbacks graded, they may or may not grade those depending on the thickness. I only mention that because some people use the term "graphic novel" to cover both true graphic novels (like the one pictured below) and TPBs that collect previously printed comics.
  5. I had the same thing happen to me two years ago. I decided to sell some stuff on ebay and I hadn't sold anything in about four years. Since that had been the case they held the funds as some kind of precautionary measure, even though I've been a paypal member since 1999 and use it all the time to pay for good. Insanity.
  6. Some people just don't like and don't want to use Paypal. If there are reasons beyond that, I don't know what they are. Also, you can't accept paypal friends & family for payments. That's verboten. Since you are considering selling here, makes sure you read the usage guidelines.
  7. Yup. The Beyonder, as has been mentioned, is a being of energy. That's the first appearance.
  8. https://comics.gpanalysis.com/subscribe What are you confused about?
  9. You just cannot loose buying from October!!! He always has the steak so he never needs to sale the sizzle.
  10. Fraud does happen. I wouldn't say that it never does but to automatically cry fraud is puzzling to me. As far as youtube is concerned, I've seen plenty of videos (comics or otherwise) of people who don't know what the fudge they're talking about and yet talk like they're experts.
  11. I've heard this complaint for 20 years. People always complain that their tiers shouldn't go by value. But what's a better way? A flat rate. The only reason why they do it by value is because they can get away with it. They know they're still really the only game in town. A flat rate results in A rate that goes by value results in and more
  12. No, and even if there were it still wouldn't tell you anything more than how many copies are currently slabbed, which could be a misleading and artificial number.
  13. No, no, no, it's not hype it's different strokes. C'mon man! Don't hassle variant collectors, man. By the way, no one cared about comics containing mark jewelers or national diamond inserts until some hucksters started hyping them up in an attempt to squeeze even more money out of collectors. I'm amazed that pence copies haven't suddenly become the latest variant hype frenzy.
  14. You make a lot of assumptions. If you want to call me smug go for it. I'm not sure how I'll get to sleep tonight knowing that an internet stranger thinks I'm smug. I'm a bit concerned about it. Maybe I'll need a sleeping pill. But to actually answer you I like variants. I collect some variants. I don't pay a premium for them. That's just my decision. My reason for calling it silly is because I remember a time when the idea of paying a premium for a barcode vs an image on a copper comic cover was unheard of. Now it's all the rage apparently. I remember a time when DC comics with a Whitman logo were considered garbage reprints. Now, people will pay silly money for a Superman comic that has a " V " on the cover to denote a fifth print. That's truly bizarre. Remember when people only cared about 1st prints? I do.
  15. What is it with you guys and newsstands anyway? It seems like a few of you have addressed this topic before. If so, how about kindly referring me to a thread or site so I can catch up? I happen to have “only” a direct high grade ASM300, btw. if I shouldn’t regret missing the newsstand bandwagon, that would be nice to know! Well, we can talk about how it's tothemarketdownthestreetforsomeCRAZY to pay a premium for a comic book when the only thing different is a bar code versus an image? I mean when you get right down to it, it's pretty silly. It's the same damn comic book.
  16. Hopefully a primer on the proper use of "sell" and "sale". Just a heads up, I will not buy an expensive comic from someone who writes "lets make a sell!" Butchering basic English does not instil confidence. Here you go
