That's a great haul

35c each though?

It baffles me (and I've been the lucky guy to buy $1000 books for $5  -  so not a jab at you) that guys with 12 longboxes don't know the 1st app of Elektra is worth more than 35c

Or Morbius.

Or War Machine.

A lot of people would have happily paid $400 / $500+ for  that haul.

Very rare nowadays to find such a clueless seller.

Congrats!

Depending on grade that SME 15 is probably the best book (possible tie with 1st Elektra).  Very nice books for 3x$1.

Some books I had originally were pulled out to be repriced like Thanos quest, Immortal Hulk, some silverage books. Just really lucky these made it through the stack. Thanks.

Yeah those books are the real standouts followed by She Spawn and Hush. They are about fine to vf. Very happy

$1 comics at the fair!  Essex Junction, Vermont.  23 books, 20 bucks.  David

[Bob Sacamano]

Here are some more I picked up.  The Over the Garden Wall were a very good deal, the Steven Universe not bad but the Regular Show I should have left. These were all 25% off.

[Bob Sacamano]

These were all just over 10% off.  To be honest I should have left all the A-Force except one or two of them.

[Bob Sacamano]

I think this is the last of it.  These were $2 each for the bagged books and $1 for the unbagged.

These were around 10% off.  Worked out on the 2nd print Power Rangers 9, around $70 book.  Happy to have 300 I’ve been meaning to pick it up for a while.

These were all 25% off.  The first Lobo appeared to be perfect when I was there but then when I got home saw a flaw on the bottom left corner so probably not higher than 9.4 too bad I was in a hurry.

Lucky guy with cash in the right place at the right time (basically driving past a guy setting stuff up in his garage for a sale tomorrow) - stopped,asked the question.

$200 Australian

76 hardback DC Graphic Novels

200 Wizard Magazines (slow sellers,but they do sell $3 - $25 depending on issue)

Hundreds of sealed packs of Star Wars 'Cinema Only' trading cards

25 Trade Paperbacks (inc 4 hardback)

5 x Dragonball Z #1

Plus heaps of other weird and wacky stuff - 7 box loads.

Yup,it's drek - but I have 450 empty spaces in my ebay drek store to fill!

Pretty happy - nowhere near as good as @STORMSHADOW_80 recent haul!!

Dude, it's not all drek. Those three Resident Evil magazines should cover the cost of the whole lot, and then some.

Unlucky guy who didn't check Craigslist until last evening and missed the start of this sale, and so, these Silver Age ASM's and many other books.

My favorite comic vendor at my local flea market was doing a 50% off sale for labor day so this big pile came home with me. Everything but the stickered books were $2.50 after the discount, so for under $200 I think did pretty well (extra pic of the Marvel Spotlight #4 because it was definitely the best deal of the bunch)

$15 haul from two different yard sales

[ADAMANTIUM]

Got to pay up for it sometimes at half price books.

[Bob Sacamano]

These were all $1.  It was at a big warehouse that has pallets of books in giant bins and tons of movies.  I was excited to see the early Olsen.  Most of the books were really beat up.  These were pretty nice.

I had such high hopes for yesterday. It was a relatively cool, slightly overcast but NOT rainy Labor Day long weekend with a bunch of garage sale listings. I left the house before sun-up with visions of comics dancing in my head.

And…it was a bust! And that’s just how it goes sometimes. The last stop I made was a parking lot sale at a church. At the very last booth, my last sale of the morning, I finally found some comics, the only comics I saw all day. By that point I was bummed and looking JUST TO FEEL SOMETHING AGAIN, so I likely overpaid at $3 each. Oh well. It was one of those days where I just didn’t want to go home empty handed.

Hope you all had more luck than I did. As temps continue to fall, and summer activities are curtailed, the really good sales should be starting up.
