Modern Collection, Angela to SPAWN to X-men, CLOSED, thank you!

43 posts in this topic

These books belong to my son in law, he asked me to sell them for him. I did tell him I know zero- about modern books, but he seems to trust me anyway and I’m extremely fond of him, so I said sure ;)

 

None of these books have been pressed. Most of them have probably just been admired for their covers without opening them. Most were bought directly from a comic book store and he should be the original owner. I’m saying most, because he’s way too young to have bought the Omega Men off the rack. I’m guessing his dad bought the few older ones.

 

They were all stored bagged and boarded and kept in a file cabinet in a smoke free home by a very careful person.

 

The books I am listing are all high grade copies. I’m going to provide scans and a description of any flaw you might not see, except for the Spawns. I’ve only scanned most of those, just posted flaws for the 1,2, 4, 9 and 50. As to a specific grade, I’ve rarely graded a book above a 9.2, but with maybe one or two exceptions, these are better. I’m not sure that I can tell the difference between a 9.4 and a 9.6 or a 9.6 and a 9.8, so please look at the pictures and ask questions if you have any.

 

Shipping is exact cost. I try to use regional boxes if it saves you money. If you are closer to NY, it’s going to be cheaper than if you are in California (I like California just fine, it’s just far from here;) Average cost for a regional box is $6.00 - $7 on the East Cost and $9 on the West. Middle of the Country is about $7-8. I pack very carefully.

 

If you are out of the US, that’s fine, too…but shipping is expensive.

Payment by PP or Check/MO. Payment is due in 7 days unless you ask me for time payments via pm and I accept your plan.

I take returns for any reason. You must notify me within 7 days of receipt and I must have the books back within 14 days. Return shipping is your cost unless I made an error, in that case I’ll pay the return shipping.

 

Regarding restoration, he’s the original owner on almost all of them and he didn’t tamper with them. I don’t see anything suspicious.

If you have a book slabbed and there is resto, I will refund $25 of your slabbing fee and the price of the book plus your original shipping cost, but only if the book has not been altered in any way (pressing/cleaning, etc) and only if it’s graded by CGC. I will take returns for 6 months after the date of purchase for resto discovered by CGC .

 

There will be a free books added to each order. Don’t expect something worth a fortune as a freebie, but then again I know very little about modern books, so one never knows. I will add several books to each order.

 

 

Prices are from completed eBay sales. I tried to go by the lower end but again, I’m not really familiar with these. If the prices are too high, just pm me and tell me.

I’d like to get the all these modern books off the bed in the guest room so they don’t make my poor SA and GA books feel old and decrepit, therefore I’m trying to make the prices reasonable.

 

First :takeit: posted in this thread or in a pm message to me wins. I can’t read smoke signals, so those don’t count;)

No one on any of the bad lists is eligible to buy here. They never are, I just forget to write it sometimes, this time I remembered.

 

I'll be listing about 75 books Plus a signature Card.

 

If you don't know me, I have a few kudos and some eBay feedback you can check;)
