I'd love to see the calculation that actually has you making a nickel doing this.

 

calculation? it's gut instinct...I already made enough selling thief of thieves to pay for all my comic purchases this year.

 

anyways it's fun.

 

as long as you stick with the 'buy low sell high' you can't go wrong.

Late to the party ?.....it's always a party at my LCS :headbang:

Tomorrow, Peter Panzerfaust #1 1st prints :wishluck:

 

While my LCS still has plenty of the regular #1 it only had one of the variant, which I was able to snag, sad, since I think it's my personal favorite.

When I was younger and had less cash to spend on comics (not that I have a ton of money to spend on them these days) and wanted to try and flip books to pay for my collection, I would buy three copies (two to sell and one to keep). That worked well for me but it was before the internet took off and I was selling to people I knew in my community. The margin is smaller on books for sellers now becauase there isn't much of an option to sell to your community so you have to add shipping, ebay and paypal costs and fees. Three may still be the right number for a smaller budget but it is definitely more difficult now than it was then. Picking the right books is obviously the key and I don't need to remind any one of that, but we don't get much discussion on the boards that helps people pick books to flip. I think a discussion of people's selling strategies and picks would be fun and helpful but there are not a lot of boardies willing to engage in such a discussion. I remember one post in reference to books people are ordering from Previews that was like "your not going to get my picks from me." To an extent I can understand that, but if that's the way you feel there's no need to tell everyone. The word "speculation" has such a bad wrap that you can't write it without upsetting someone. On a related note, I imagine that the print run for Revival is going to be a lot larger than many people in this thread think. I'm predicing that it will be almost as high as Saga.

I asked the owner if there was a limit on the 1:10 variant, he said "buy all of them". My voice cracked as I said "thank you".

Dont care how many copies people have. Its was a very good first issue. Interested to see how the 2nd print isssue effects demand. Seeley has a bright future.

 

Ive been a big Seeley fan since Hack Slash glad he is finally getting his due. I am also seeing a nice jump in Hack Slash sales as well. I have sold 2 complete sets of the 97 series in the last month or two and several one shots as well as annuals and the 1st appearance issue which seems to be climbing as well.
