Selling on here

74 posts in this topic

is it safe to to sell things on here?

 

What is the best way to receive payments ?

 

thanks in advance!

 

It's safer than anywhere else

 

Paypal

 

The best way to sell is:

 

List the books with no scans before you have them in hand.

 

Ask for 3% additional if anyone wants to use Paypal.

 

Threaten to close the thread and send them to other venues for more

 

Use a lot of terms like. "Would benefit from a press", "Thought for sure this would be a (next grade better)", and "Looks every bit of (next grade better)"

 

You forgot, add an additional 10% if you want a scan.

 

sprinkle the word "key" around as if it were fairy dust

 

Don't forget to talk about movie potential....

you forgot the most important one

 

"grading is subjective" / " I am not a professional grader"

 

 

note to the OP

 

 

- these are all really what NOT to do in case you did not realize - there have been a LOT of GREAT replies - but the group as a whole derails at times, lol ---- good luck

This thread is tame. Almost trying too hard to be nice. Guess everyone still recovering from the weekend.

 

...or people are actually not dickwads all the time. ;)

 

This is a comic book forum, not the butthurt forum...

 

Actually this is The Comic Book Forum.

I'm tempted to spend $12 on the Grader Notes just to find out what we're missing. Is there a stain we can't see? A crease we're not seeing? A nasty back cover? In any event, that's a great looking book.

 

+1

Hard to imagine you'll have a hard time selling this, even if the back is a bit fugly. This presents beautifully for 5.5

Honestly not sure what it was and never realized it was there until i pulled it out of my safety deposit box after about 20 years of storage. Here is a pic of the back before i sent it.

Looks like a triangular water stain on the bottom right.
