CLOSED! JUNK SALE Mostly GA but as always a few odd items thrown in for fun! 3 3

[Robot Man]

Been a while since I did one of these. Recently ran into a cool little old school collection. Many were even in Robert Bell bags! This is a fun group of titles. Very few superhero and no horror titles. But about every other genre were present. No huge dollar big keys but lots of affordable GA many in quite nice shape and many have superb page quality. Since all shows in my area are not going on, I decided to offer them to the boards first. Threadcrapping, as always is encouraged. Let's have a little fun!

Rules:

No problem children or HOS members.

Postage is $7.00 for up to two comics, well packaged first class. 1-3 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, 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 a couple 4 in 40 years. 

This stuff all comes from a smoke filled, varmit infested, mouldy junk house. (Just kidding!) Here we go...
