JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY – THOR 85-125

Not all the issues but most of them...

 

With some wistfulness I am selling off the majority of my JIM 83-125 collection. Lots of factors here…primarily to pare down my collection and start building my son’s college fund (have you checked college tuition/expenses lately… :o ). Feels like it’s time…

 

Prices are pretty firm with some wiggle room. But I have plenty of time to sell…PMs are welcome but consider any offer below 10% discount not to be considered at this time. Discounts are more attractive to me when purchasing multiple books. (thumbs u

 

Market value is not an easy number to arrive at IMO for high grade Silver Age Journey Into Mystery as there are relatively few sales transactions to glean information from and 1 book in the last year for GPA does not constitute necessarily market value IMO. I believe my pricing is fair in relation to (a) what I paid for the book; (b) what I think the book is worth in the marketplace and © priced at (in most cases) high value “keeper” copies for collectors after the nicest books for the issue and grade that they can add to their collection. Pretty sure this thread is not for the flippers… :baiting:

 

As usual, I would love to have some of these books that have been keepers for me up until now go to board friends, fellow collectors and early JIM aficionados in general but of course, anyone successfully winning and purchasing the book can do with it what they will is my attitude with no regrets and no hard feelings on my part moving forward. :headbang:

 

Should there be temperate interest here I will play this by ear and ultimately move the books to another venue. As always, thanks for looking, hope you enjoy the books…I certainly have…and best of luck to anyone that is interested in adding any of these to their collection.

 

Grading. In addition to the normal CGC grading/notes I will list my estimation for registration, which I deem of great importance. I believe all of these books grade out as either "P" perfect registration or "NP" near-perfect registration.

 

Pressing. Assume the 85 issue to be pressed. To the best of my knowledge none of the remaining books have been pressed; but I cannot state for certain either way. Bought them all slabbed except for the 85.

 

RULES

All board members are eligible for bidding and winning except of course…no Probies, no HOSers, no one on my “LIST” (it’s a short list) and no deadbeats in general. :sumo:

 

First unequivocal “I’ll take it” :takeit: in thread wins the book. If you post “I’ll take it” with some conditional stipulations, I will do my best to put the book on hold and work things out…but there can be no guarantees against another unequivocal :takeit: in the mean time. I’m happy to put a book on hold while we work on the details…time willing... :wishluck:

 

Payment: Paypal, Money Order, Cashiers Check or Cash. Payment is expected within 7 days of purchase (received) unless other arrangements are made.

 

Time Payments: I am open to time-payments…especially if I know you. In most cases, time payment durations will be 90 days with a 50% down payment, unless, of course, other arrangements are made and settled on. If we enter into a transaction and you decide at some later date that you want to back out of the transaction, I will keep the down payment and move on…no hard feelings. If for some reason you need to extend the agreed-upon time-frame due to personal circumstances, I am flexible and very easy to deal with.

 

Shipping:

USA. Included in purchase price…USPS Priority Box Insured with tracking.

Canada. As per USA plus $10 for one book. Exact shipping minus USA cost for multiple books. Insurance extra.

Elsewhere. Exact shipping minus $20 bucks. Insurance extra.
