  1. Just trying to clean up my collection a little bit... time to let go of duplicates, under-copies, and some things that just don't fit my collection anymore...

    Feel free to make offers, but of course, an "I'll Take It" in the thread wins...

    Shipping is from Charlotte, NC - happy to drop-off in person, otherwise I prefer to ship via USPS Priority ($15 for up to 3 books), but I'm happy to ship via whatever method you might prefer.  And happy to work with you on shipping if any one person takes a bunch of these...

    Happy to ship outside the US as well... just work with me on the method and pricing, and I'll do my best.

    Everything will ship within 24 hours...

    Paypal, Venmo, Cash app, regular cash, check... if it's legal tender, I'll accept it!

    No returns on CGC graded books unless I've misrepresented something... If you'd like shipping insurance, just lmk, and I'll figure out the pricing.

    Thanks for looking!

    I have a second thread running in the Gold/Silver/Bronze section as well: 

     

  2. Hi all... been away for a few months... getting back to my comic room and looking to move some books... ideally in bulk.

    Is anyone interested in this lot of 48 books?

    There were a few I couldn't find GPA for - I think the Don Rosa Marvel Premiere was the biggest one - but I made my best guesses, and I'm asking $4100

    I'm not looking to break the lot up... only looking to see if anyone is interested in the whole thing.

    I do have images for most of the books if anyone wants to see anything... and, of course, will happily send those along with the books if they're wanted.

    I'm in Charlotte, NC... happy to drive an hour or 2 if someone would like to meet instead of deal with shipping...

    *Anyway*

    here's the list... 

    Thanks for looking!

  3. One of these two... I posted these in the "Your Favorite Copper Covers" thread too...

    Two of the first (if not *the* first) comics I bought off the stands, I think.  I believe I got them at a gas station or something at the bottom of Sugar Mountain when we were going to stay up at Sugar Top, during the summer for some reason...

    I read them both so many times and just LOVE the juxtaposition between the covers.

  4. I'd be happy with the current sales model if they just reduced the output to something manageable...

    Not counting any of the stupid variants, reprints, collections, or non-MU material (Spider-Man game, Marvel Tales, Star Wars, Conan...), the pre-order discount price to order 1 copy of every MU book is $199.50.  That's with just under a 40% discount, so newsstand is nearly $400.  Ridiculous.

    Not even going to pretend that the exercise of counting up everything with the variants is worthwhile...

    Here is some stuff I did in my teen years about 30 years ago.  Most were drawn from actual reference material.

     

    I keep saying that I will get back to drawing, just haven't yet.  But I will.  Sure there will be a lot of rust.  May attempt to try do things both old school (paper) and new school (digital).

  6. So... similar to this thread regarding ComicLink: 

     

    I just found a book that I've owned for nearly 6 months for sale on ComicConnect for more than double what I paid for it. (I bought it as BIN on Ebay)

    I assume this is the same kind of situation mentioned in the previous thread (and I emailed CC to get it taken down), but is this a widespread problem?

    Seems like sites that just act as middlemen should be able to do more to ensure listings are accurate and books are actually available. I like the idea of having sellers have to actively refresh listings after [x amount of time], and although that wouldn't fully solve the issue perhaps it would help. 

    Guess we'll see what happens with the CC email... I felt like I should have sent a picture with today's paper or something though. My little hostage ransom note!
