NIDECATGUT

I am a dealer from Toronto, Canada (Comic Book Addiction). I have recently picked up some very high grade 50s Western comics and thought I would share them here.

First person to claim a book gets it. Payment can be made by PayPal or e-transfer. Price includes shipping. Will ship to Canada and the U.S. Sales above $1,000 will be shipped by FedEx; below $1,000 will be priority post.

All books are CGC graded, so no returns unless something is damaged through shipping. Scans are below.

Anyone have any thoughts, musings, predictions on Suspense Comics 3? Seems like a rarity when it even comes up for sale. One of my all-time favorite covers that I likely have 99% chance of never owning due to the stratospheric price ($21k for a 1.0 four years ago, I believe). Would love to hear discussion on this book.

 

Maybe my all time favorite cover. Just incredible

$37,500 - Like last time it sold.

Much, much higher now.

Very nice Ken

Not new!

But still glad there are zero copies on the census.

 

LOVE THIS!

I really would like several of the comics that are in consistently interesting gaps on that list!

Which in particular? I probably sold them already but maybe not. Some are still at CGC. DM me with your targets list and I can check if I have any.

I'm new to comic books, coming from the world of sports cards. I discovered pre-code horror late last year, and have been dipping my toe in this year. These are my first "big" purchases, from the latest PBA auction. Very excited to add these.

 

Outstanding!

Coupla books came drifting in this week.  Here's two of 'em.  I don't recall ever seeing the Monster one issue.  The number two though is somewhat common.

Love that Monster 1. Just got a 6.0 back from CGC (sorry no picture handy). What an amazing cover.

--- Comic Collecting, like any other asset, will recover its losses.---

How?

Look at demographics, look at the economy, look at the debt, look at the world situation (its a powder keg).

I dont see it. After the crazyness, the hangover will be bad and very long.

Completely agree with this. Over time, these sharp upward and downward movements in value will smooth out, and the general trend line will be upward.

B Bar B, Ghost Rider, Best of the West. Funnyman and the Avenger are all favorites.

 

These are amazing

Oaf-con pickups from @MrBedrock, the scan doesn't do the colors on the #111 justice.

Very nice

Hi please adjust scores for Tim Holt #30. This is a rare and highly sought after book. 

My 4.5 currently gets 9 pts and it just bothers me every time I look at it 

 

Here are some recent sales: 

Couldn't agree more with this.

Original post has the following regarding returns: All books are CGC graded, so no returns unless something is damaged through shipping.

Those are all the scans I have handy for now. As I said, if you would like to see any others, please DM me.
