William-James88 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Adventure Comics 260 is also 50% off guide on e-bay right now (the seller claims it's a 5.0 but it's more likely a 4.0) https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Adventure-Comics-260-1st-SA-origin-Aquaman-VG-FN-5-0-DC-1959/164068448953?hash=item26333ddab9:g:iu0AAOSweaBeGiZl WolverineX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, you may have missed that this is the magazine forum. Not sure if there’s an equivalent eBay deals thread in the silver age section, but if there isn’t, I’d use these two to start one in that forum.

I mean I saw the latest deals were magazine related but I thought that,s just because deals on comics were a thing of the past and the thread title seemed all inclusive. But thanks for the heads up.

Hamlet Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 comics4less is selling a bunch of magazines this week on eBay. A lot of nice books. Something for pretty much any magazine collector. Randall Dowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamlet Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I’m playing the “buying on eBay from the non-comic seller” lottery. Six Creepy’s, three with Frazetta covers, for $43. The listing says Good to Very Good, pictures look a little better but aren’t detailed enough to really tell. I figure as long as everything is attached and complete I’m doing okay, since five of them are issues I don’t have and the other is one I don’t mind having a duplicate of. speedcake and Randall Dowling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I did pretty well here. None of them are better than Fine, but they are all attached and complete. I’d call them mostly VG+. The 6 is probably more like VG- with a rough corner and some denting on the front cover, but for $7 each I sure can’t complain- chevalmeow, Randall Dowling, evilskip and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombat Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 Not ebay, but Etsy. Hard to tell condition of the books, but at about $5 a pop how bad can it be. https://www.etsy.com/listing/748058343/vintage-creepy-magazine-collection-1?ga_order=price_desc&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=frazetta&ref=sr_gallery-1-44&organic_search_click=1&cns=1 Keys_Collector, chevalmeow, Randall Dowling and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtherEric Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 1 hour ago, batmiesta said: What's going on with the top of #1 ? Is that a common flaw? A glance at copies sold at heritage suggests that there's an unusual amount of space underneath the text at the bottom as well, possibly even some white paper at the bottom of the cover which may or may not be the interior pages. So my very inexpert guess would be bad miscut rather than trimming. But I'm sure others more familiar with the book could assess that better.

In fact, it's the only copy I've ever seen with a miscut that severe. It's actually kind of cool, in a weird sort of way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
