Love stinks. - CLOSED - thanks, everyone!

[El Toro Rojo]

Well, nothing last forever...including seven-year relationships.

 

Yes, a break-up has made it necessary to get a new place, and that means security deposits, new furniture, expenses, expenses, expenses. So, a bunch of funny books that were formally in my wheelhouse can now be in your wheelhouse.

 

All books will be posted for one week ONLY, then I'm pulling them down and putting them up on eBay. Frankly, I get a bit more for my books there, even when deducting fees. The books I collect/will be selling are more esoteric, so I get why.

 

I'll be posting a few books per evening over the next few days/weeks. They'll all be in this thread, so keep checking back. I'll update the subject line with the current date when new stuff goes up.

 

So what are we looking at? Variety, my friend, variety, including:

 

Bronze Horror (DC & Marvel)

Marvel Silver Age Romance, many with rarely seen Kirby covers & art

Marvel Westerns, again with rarely seen Kirby covers & art

Super-hero stuff

Atlas War, many in high grade

Some slabs, some raw

 

Rulez:

 

1. PayPal only

 

2. 1st unconditional posted in the sales thread wins the book. A posted in the thread takes precedence over any PM sale that might be agreed to but not yet posted to the sales thread - period.

 

3. Shipping is $12 securely-packed Priority double-boxed.

 

4. US buyers only, please, unless I've dealt with you before.

 

5. No HOS or probation boardies. I also reserve the right to refuse to sell to anyone for any reason.

 

6. I have sold many books on eBay under "silverageguy", plus I have had many four-figure, high-dollar transactions (selling and buying) with Columbia Comics, Dale Roberts, Greg Reece, Ghost Town, ft88 and many more.

Shifting gears a bit - we're heading into Silver Age Marvel Romance territory.

 

You're going to see some nutty prices here - that's because these books are bidded up pretty high on the 'bay. I should know, cuz I paid through the caboose for a lot of these.

 

Great Kirby stuff...

[El Toro Rojo]

TEEN-AGE ROMANCE #77 (#1)

Here's a Marvel SA first issue you may have never seen. Incredibly tough book, Kirby cover.

This one's a bit of a mess. Wrinkling, tears, rusty staples, a 2.0.

But find one. G'head. I'll wait.

$20. SOLD TO UMYEAHWHATEVERS
