Marvel Tales, Super Heroes Collectors + BUY 4 get a 5th book Free: see details

skypinkblu · June 1, 2014

My aim with these was to empty some closet space, so I will be doing one discount.

One Discount, for new purchases.buy 4 get the 5th3, get the 4th one free. Free book will be the lowest price book of the 5 you choose.That's up to 20% 25% off depending on which books you choose.

These are wonderful books. They were published in the 60’s and contain reprints of some of quite a few key issues, 1st Sandman in ASM #4, Strange Tales #110, Early Hulks, TOS, FF, etc. This series provides a very nice way to read some expensive stories in the original comic format from the same period.

Most of these books come from an original owner. I bought them about 10 years ago. They have not been pressed.

I accept Checks, Paypal or Money Orders.

I would appreciate it if you would pay within 3 days. If you need longer, just let me know. If you need a time payment, pm me and we can discuss it.

:takeit: in the thread rules over any pending PMs. in a PM over the board is determined by time stamp.

Shipping is exact. I'll ship however you want. In the US, I can safely send 3 giants in a priority envelope (I have boards with wood veneers) for $5.00.

I use regional priority whenever possible. If you live on the east coast it's going to be less expensive than on the west coast. I'll gladly provide estimates if you pm me your zip code.

Out of the US, is another story, but I can send these first class if they are under 4lbs.

If you spend $55, I will deduct $5 from shipping. If you spend $110, I will deduct $10 from shipping. If you spend more than that, we'll work something out.

No HOS/Probation people please.

I had some of these up before and they were sold, but the buyer had family problems, so I'm just listing them again.

I am always willing to take returns, buyer pays return shipping unless the mistake is mine. Just notify me within 3 days of receipt is there is a problem.

I am going to list the Marvel Collector Item Classics tonight, the rest will be listed tomorrow.

I'm going to put the GCD stuff in spoiler tags, so it doesn't take up so much space, just click on the spoiler.

Synopsis:

Mordo places a spell over Strange's house that causes it to vanish to another dimension. Strange manages to track Mordo down using his ethereal form, but it becomes trapped in Mordo's lair. Mordo goes to see the Ancient One, claiming he's changed his way, just so he can attack him unawares. But Strange had found a way to escape by going straight thru the center of the Earth itself, and warned his mentor in advance. Though defeated, both Strange and the Ancient One know Mordo is becoming more powerful all the time.
