    OK, do they realise good prices for the seller? Or are they bargains for the buyer?  I have some runs of X-titles that I am still in the process of trying to put up FS, was going to chunk it up into 4-5 book lots and list them that way. But, if big runs are selling and selling well, I might just go big.

    Good prices for the seller if you take the time to list them right. classic sets like V for Vendetta 1-10 sold for $300.. and modern classic story lines are doing well.. primarily my comment was directed towards more recent runs from like within the past five years or so are selling well.. because readers want to catch up on those recent releases and they won't be in trade paperback form until the fall or so

  2. 12-2-17 Cold misty morning..It's really nice and rare to find early bronze X-Men at yard sales.. $2 each .. The sale was so early allowing me time for a moving sale later that afternoon.. where I picked up those copper Marvels for $17 all in. I also picked up low grade Brave and the Bold 54 & Detective 359 for $75 each at that in-house moving sale..

    Yeah a press would help but there’s a lot of color breaking ticks and creases as well. They issued a full refund but I hated seeing them like that. Of course picking it up from the post office I knew there’d be issues as the books were just sliding every which way. 

    I usually include a note to securely sandwich the comic in between strong/sturdy cardboard... some sellers will put the comic in between boards but not secure/fasten them w tape.. leading to sickening impact crunches...

    How did you get your PayPal fees back?   Last time it happened, I lost both the processing and the payment fees.

    The 30 cent processing fee is always lost when you make any transfer (refund or not). If you have a business account the 2.9% processing fee will likely be lost.. if you have a regular account those fees should come back to you if you send a refund... there were times when I did lose the 2.9% fee when I refunded via ebay... sucked

    So I made a purchase and the guy contacted me an hour later and said he can’t send it because he left the area because of the Corona. He says he has tried to refund me but it wont let him and Ebay phone lines are closed. It shows he cancelled order and only gives me option of that I received refund. Credit Card hasn’t shown a refund after a week.
     

    Anyone experience this? He says he wont be back for months but left other listings up. 

    Sometimes it takes 3-4 business days for refunded e-checks to clear.. so I'd just be patient for a few more days until emailing ebay

    Would it be worthy to add someone to this list who sold a $20 book for $2 and had sellers remorse and canceled it? Seller states I took advantage of his ignorance and admitted it wasn’t unavailable or damaged. I’m not sure how people feel about this so I’m not naming names....yet. 

    Also hate when that happens.. Bought $4 Sandman 8 canceled.... seller said it was an error ....... ok I get it I paid steal of a deal prices but that's on the seller not me

    Another instance I bought $5 non-comic item worth $40-50 cancelled, same seller I bought $50 non-comic item worth $100-200 also canceled.... hate that dude.. and he makes up bs reasoning for canceling my order...

    One guy was doing a thesis paper or something on the Kirby Eternals arc in the Bronze thread - before the movie announcement.  I read it with fascination over such a crappy title.  

    I grew up on 1980s comics so I saw the 70s DC and Marvel as such .  Kirby's Eternals being one of the many problem titles or the time.  It's jaded me against his better 60s stuff ever since.

    2.5-3 years ago I passed on a stack of maybe 20-30 original owner Eternals 1 high grade copies for $6 each........ somehow in that moment I knew I should have attempted to buy the whole lot but it was hard to for such a meaningless book at the time

  8. 2008-2019... pretty much every major character has already made it way to the movies or tv shows and they've been recycled/rehashed too many times to be hot or spec'ed on... that and a bad economy/global pandemic doesn't really give anyone any hype or reason to buy/invest in books... even b4 this started.. Black Widow and WW84 were the main movies for the year... yeah Birds of Prey came and went and it sucked... so not a big movie release year... seriously who actually liked Eternals b4 they announced they were making a movie?

    I was following this book but was out jogging and forgot it ended at an early time - sold for a very cheap $2160.00 with BP on HA

    Will kick myself for a long time for missing out on it.

     

    Happened to me a week or two ago.. I was bidding and even watching an auction for a super fair priced mega BA key but forgot it ended at an early morning time.. still mulling about it oh well .. balance in the universe i guess
