Robot Man Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 (edited) Was working out in the garage the other day and found a mystery box. No label or marking on it. Probably been buried 15 years. Had to look inside. And to my surprise, it was a full box of mid-'50's/mid '60's SA DC Sci-Fi and Mystery books. Books I bought over the years simply to read for the sheer enjoyment of these weird titles. Wasn't looking for "keys" or "covers" just fun books. And these hit the mark. The kind of titles as a kid, I often gazed upon with wonder and occasionally, when I had a few extra dimes bought and read to death. Now, I'm not a "professional grader" but know enough to know these are all low grade. Probably nothing better than vg+ at best. And as such, most are real cheap. I'm not going to grade each one or offer any detailed description as I usually do. Like a true Ebay auction, I will let you grade by the pictures. I will, however, note anything the pictures don't show. There are a lot of them all the major titles Strange Adventures, House of Mystery, House of Secrets, Mystery in Space, My Greatest Adventure and Tales of the Unexpected. Will take me a few days to do them all. There will be a lot of freebees thrown in as well. Remember, these are books to enjoy and have fun with. They really are a kick to read with some wonderful covers. Rules:No problem children or HOS members.Postage is $6.00 each for up to two comics, very well packaged first class. 1-4 books will go Priority Flat Rate Envelope for $8.00. Anything over that will go Medium Flat Rate Box for $15.50. I will combine postage on multiple purchases. Things other than comics and larger orders will be calculated for the most economical way. All will come with tracking. I prefer to sell only to US addresses but might make an exception if I know you.PM's and offers... I am trying to sell this stuff and want to get as much listed as I can. I try to price fairly. I probably won't have a lot of time to review PMs if I want to get this stuff listed. An "I'LL TAKE IT" icon takes it first. So, keep that in mind if you want something. When I get done, I will review PMs (in order of when they came in). If you have a question (other than a lower offer) post it and I will try to answer you.I will accept PayPal, And since covid seems to be pretty well mitigated here and I've had my shots, checks and money orders. Returns: No hassle returns within two weeks from when tracking says it was delivered. Return postage is on you unless I make a gross error and in that case I will "man-up" and pay return postage. I don't expect any returns though as I've only had 3 or 4 in 40 years. This stuff all comes from a smoke filled, varmit infested, mouldy junk house. (Just kidding!) Here we go...
