Selling Question 1 1

[Math Teacher]

I'm getting ready to sell some books to pay for my AF #15 that I just bought. Are we allowed to sell CBCS in the Gold/Silver/Bronze sales forum?

I just want to make sure that I am doing the right thing.

Books must be CGC or raw only.

However there are other venues to sell a non-cgc book.  If the book warrants it, in some cases it might be best to pay and have the book slabbed by CGC.  Certain books command more respect in a CGC label.  However if we are talking a 9.8 copy of Amazing Spider-man 800 then it's not worth it. 

For selling non-CGC books try setting up a selling account with Comiclink and Comicconnect, both of whom allow you to list while retaining the books in your possession.   There is always eBay... and you can always go to the joke of a website and message board that certain non-cgc companies and sell there.  There are a couple of guys that sell books over there that are quite successful. 

I would also recommend Facebook groups such as Comic Books Buy Sell Trade... 

And always always always list that you will only accept PayPal goods and services (no friends and family) otherwise guys like me will ridicule you. 

AF15?  I am glad you bought it.  Welcome to the club.

These days I do almost all my sales through Mycomicshop.

It's a CBCS 9.4, so I think the slight gain I might realize is not worth the effort. I put it up for sale on Instagram, but I have had no takers. I might need to lower the price.

I found the exact same book, albeit in a CGC slab, that sold for $2,030 on December 10, 2020. I am going to set my Ebay price at $1,850. After Ebay fees, I would get very near the amount I am hoping to realize for this book.

I'll just have to wait and see what happens.
