Looking to trade my run of Secret Wars newsstand books for a decent copy of Iron Fist #14. The price range for both are broad, but I think the Secret Wars lot is equal to a F to F+ based on eBay sold listings - somewhere around $250-300ish. Priority shipping to be paid by each party for the books they are trading, this lot would be shipped in a rigid box. See link with detailed pics below. Thanks for looking 🍻 https://imgur.com/a/i9VDie6

Looking to make a trade for the listed X-men books for some Spawn books. [H] X-Men # 54, 58. These copies are in solid condition, estimated mid-grade. No major flaws, photos show quality. Staples are tight, no rust noted. Ballpark cost analysis for the pair estimated from recent eBay sales: $175-215. [W] Spawn books. Sequential runs preferred. My priority is the 1-32 issue run, so anything including some (or all) of these books is preferred, but open to offers including these and later issues. Not looking for NM books, but nothing low grade please. Sold listings on eBay for price comparison: 1/14/22: 1-20 sold for $163 1/4/22: 2-51 sold for $89 12/20/21: 1-67 + 1-15 curse $222 12/23/21: 1-39 sold for $195 *note: there are some recent NM/M runs that sold for very high, I am not looking for a NM/M run so not including prices in this list. Thanks for looking and let me know if you have any questions 🍻

Hey that’s not bad, thanks! 🍻

Thanks for the response!

Hi, I would really appreciate your input on this recent acquire of mine. Looks really sharp to me, took some closeup shots of notable flaws. Thank you in advance 🍻

Thanks for the response! Yea I’m sure a pro restorer could do some good, but I wouldn’t want to invest that much in this book. I think there are some chemical cleanings that could be done as well, but really outside the effort I would want to put in. I guess I was hoping somebody might have a cool little trick that was eluding me on my google searches! 🍻

Hello, I hope everybody is doing well on this fine Saturday. I have a Strange Adventures 180 that had the classic amateur spine reinforcement scotch tape situation. I was able to successfully remove the tape without damaging the book, so big win there. What I would like to know are there any simple ways to help lessen the discoloration from the old tape? This comic is for my PC, so I’m up for whatever can make it present better! All suggestions appreciated!

I agree! I don’t hate names on books from the silver age, date stamps on the cover dont bother me. Appreciate the response, I have it in Mylar now and it presents juuuuuust fine for me.

Hello, PGM my Xmen #2. Decent shape, has wear on the spine, tried to show in the photos - some tears in mid spine are completely though (but small). The previous owner, a Mr L. Eck marked out the original(?) owners name on the back and wrote his. All sharpie of course. He also decided to leave his mark on an interior page, top and bottom! Maybe L. Eck is some kind of special pedigree collection . Thanks in advance for your input.

Not a tear, that is just how the light it hitting, I think that’s just an indentation in the paper.

Sold!
