Coppers to buy before they explode

That Peter Porker is hilarious. Any time I was searching back-issue bins when Peter Panzerfaust was blowing up, I ran across those...

 

Man of Steel #18s have been pretty easy to find and are usually high-grade after all these years...

 

Darkhawk #1s have been easy to find but looks like they are only selling well in high-grade. The ones I've found have been pretty beat up...

I can't believe there is so much debate over Marvel Age issues. I love it. Reminds me of the debates from old copper age threads. :cloud9:

 

I see them all the time in $1 boxes and never thought once to pick one up.

 

I would never keep one for my PC because I don't personally believe they're worth collecting, but would

love to sell one for a big profit to those who do.

 

I'm selling my Hulk 377 third print for the same reason. I don't give a hoot for variants or later prints of any kind and scarcity of a book for it's own sake means nothing to me, but for those who like this dreck I will be willing to serve that market. I will gladly trade my $1 purchase for your $200 or $300 dollars.

 

Please don't confuse me with some newb. I just provide information and it is up to the individual what they do with the information. For Marvel Age issues I would just buy it and flip it.

 

My comments were not directed at you, but generally to anyone out there that feels the need to pay big bucks for variants. Please keep doing it --- I need the money that I'm getting from these $1 finds.

plus $400 of grading fees. So a 5 to 1 return on your investment. I bought 9 copies of nowhere men 3 for $3 per and also made 5x my investment.

 

I think people are happy for your success, but if you're looking for people to be impressed...

I don't think you get to 2k on those books if they were all graded 9.8 for free and shipped for free and came with a talking frog.

 

$2k profit, so that's AFTER $400 in grading fees.

well, that weighs heavily on two factors:

 

A. What kinda frog are we talking about? If its Just a regular frog probably not. But I really like the ones with the big red eyes and bellies. Also, can I lick it and trip balls? If I do is he gonna give me a bunch of lip about it and or tell on me? These things matter.

 

B. Also, what kind of things does the frog say/how extensive is his vocabulary? A few corny words or phrases isnt going to get you to 2k. Now if he can hold a conversation or at the very least cuss like a sailor, I mmigt be in.
