I'd think so too but with 180,745 E-Bay feedback (!) and close to 2,000 this month they are definitely selling a ton of books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is another little tidbit from his latest newsletter: I will close today's newsletter with an interesting observation about our Jason St. Mega-Store. Almost everyone realizes by now that Jason St. is the largest comic book store in the world, and that the diversity of comics, magazines, graphic novels, trade paperbacks, and comics hardbacks that we offer in that one building supersedes any other spot on earth. But, did you know that Jason St. also buys more comics each day than it sells? Seriously, We buy so many collections at Jason St. ( sometimes a dozen collections in a day!) that we always have more comics in stock at closing than what we had when we unlocked our door that morning. In effect, I have built a perpetual comic book machine! Just some fun food for thought... God help me, I bought some books using the code. Even with the 50% off, it was hard to beat mycomcship and other prices. My second time in 20+ years of collecting buying from them. First time was okay. I think it just took a really long time to get here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semicentennial Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 I'm tempted to order from them but I heard their fill rate isn't great and if I order multiple copies I may just get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought from their ebay store and the grading was off, but at least they shipped everything I ordered from ebay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with probably half of people not leaving feedback (lazy bums) that is a lot of sales each month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1950's war comics Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 (edited) If i asked Milehigh to break a ten dollar bill for me they would probably give me six dollars back in keeping with their business model.......!......

In the 90s I remember getting a few of their vouchers, called Chuck Bucks. Be careful that they don't try to fob you off with six of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
