The house is made OUT of comic boxes.Good for insulation.

 

Not so great for protection from the elements.

 

Well, he's got an extra layer of X-Force boxes on the perimeter . . . :grin:

 

They are all polybagged #1's so its just as good as vinyl siding.

Still not seeing much -- at least for #27:

 

http://www.ebay.com/sch/Bronze-Age-197083-/12590/i.html?_from=R40&LH_Complete=1&_nkw=dc+comics+presents+27

 

 

I see:

CGC 8.5 not selling for $80.

Raw VF- not selling for $40.

Raw VF- not selling for $30.

Random raw sold for $6.

Another raw sold for $10.

Raw VF+ sold for $30 (this seems to be an outlier compared to every other listing).

Raw VF sold for $9.

Raw NM sold for best offer from $40.00

Raw VF+ sold for best offer from $35.00

Raw VF+ sold for $29.99

 

It's not a $100 book but that's still good for a book that guides for $6.00. (shrug)

Ahh, so you're looking at the SOLD listings only.

 

Have to be careful there, as some of those sales go back to early August.

 

That's why I look at Completed; shows you what sold AND what didn't. So DCP #27 may have been selling for $25 in August, but no one is really buying it now.

Right now there is great $$$ to be made from CA books since you can snag collections for so cheap. I am curious to see how things end, but this reminds me a lot of the action on BA books from 2003 - 2005 (maybe starting a bit earlier).

I was buying these for $1 last year. Seem to be doing pretty good to me.

Snagging collections "for cheap" depends entirely on where you are. Maybe in Canada, but here in SoCal, it's simply not possible.

If you own a comic shop in a busy area such collections (or accumulations) may indeed walk in the door cheap, particularly if someone just drags in a couple of boxes of what they consider 80s and 90s junk. My local shop gets several of these every month. He snags the 10 or 20 good books in the box and prices them up, tosses the rest in the cheap-o bin (and has invariably missed a few good ones, which I hope to snag!) He pays 5 or 10 cents a book.

 

Finding these without a location probably involves placing ads, which costs money. Craiglist seems like a waste of time 99.99% of the time as everyone there thinks their circa 1994 post-Unity valiants are worth $30 a pop by now.
