Closed - cleaning up my collection - GGA + ASM 41 & 43 + Bats 251 + Vault 35 + Josie 45 2 2

[Susanville]

My kid just left for the prom. I've bought too many books lately. Guess I should try and sell some books. And I suppose I am re-thinking my collecting habits so starting to thin the superhero herd with a few decent key books and getting rid of my under copies of GGA books I have.

Shipping: Shipping is $16 in the US for USPS Priority shipping for one or two slabbed comics. Three or more slabs will be $25. Raw comics will be $8 in the US for any amount of books. I am happy to ship anywhere outside of the US at exact cost via USPS.

Payment: Preferred method is Zelle, Venmo or PayPal. Payment due within 5 business days or I reserve the right to cancel.

References: I have sold some CGC and raw books over the last few months and those went pretty. I've sold on eBay as well but it's also been years since I've sold anything there but, for what it's worth, zero negative feedback there (susanville43). 

Returns:  No returns on CGC books - happy to provide you with any picture you'd like. Raw books are returnable within 3 days of receipt (but I'm telling you up front, these are mostly beaters).

Take: I am willing to entertain offers but the first  in the thread always wins. If we come to agreement in a PM, the take needs to be posted in the thread to complete the transaction - if nobody enters a take at my asking price before you post your take, it's yours. No Hall of Shamers or Probies.

I'll zig a little here with Underworld 6. I picked up a few of these recently. No shortage of guns, bullets, molls and stickups. If you go a page or two without some sort of violence, you must be reading the ads. 3.0 or so. $75. $65

On to the slightly esoteric - Trapped. A 6.5 drug-education comic from 1951 with (more than slightly irritating) slightly brittle pages. I love the description from the GCD: Students smoke reefers, lose job, try heroin, then descend into life of crime to pay for habit. Reefer is such a great word. And did I mention that this was used in SOTI? It was.

Grader notes: Despite this being a 70+ year old comic graded in April 2022, there were no grader notes.

No recent sales - the last one was a 9.4 for just over $1k. Asking $175.

This is my third time trying to sell this comic. Is it me? Is it her? Can't be her. Maybe 3rd time's the charm? We'll see, but I'm going to be lazy and not even change what I wrote last time. Bob Lubbers dropping in a tommy-gun-toting, headlights-blaring, long-legged lady out of the sky. I'd also argue this should be noted as a bondage cover - I mean c'mon, the dude is tied to a propeller - but I suppose the CGC folks are looking mostly for tied up ladies. All of this and more in Wings 93. Off-white to white pages, CGC 4.5.

Grader notes: Moderate creasing to cover; moderate spine stress lines to cover; piece out back cover; staple detached bottom of back cover; staple detached top of back cover.

A 4.0 with cream to off-white pages sold in October 2022 for $275. Asking $300.

Grader notes: Light staining to cover; moderate creasing to cover; moderate spine stress lines to cover.

No recent sales other than an 8.0 Promise Collection for almost $700 last year. Asking $200.

The 2nd Rangers Comics is Rangers 31 in 4.5 with off-white to white pages. Terrific bondage cover with some headlights that a... snake(?) with fire coming out of it's eyes has locked in on while the natives get extra restless. I didn't take a pic of the back cover but can if you'd like me to.

Graders notes: Light pieces out to cover; light spine stress lines to cover; moderate creasing to cover.

Nothing sold ever in 4.5. A 3.5 sold for $350 in December 2022. Asking $375.

My paid consultant is reviewing all offers and what will be available tomorrow. So be on the lookout. Don't be shy with the offers... worse I can do is have my consultant get back to you and say no.

The first of a couple of Al Fagaly covers featuring long legs and eye-lashes. First is Pep 64 with Archie "stuck" in the greatest waiting room of all time. Cover is beat and completely detached. If the cover were attached, I'd be pretty happy with this as a low-grade copy. Asking $50. $45

The second Fagaly cover is Archie 24. Archie is again in a room with two lovely ladies but this time his situation seems a little more dire. This book completely split on pretty much every page (which are brittle) except for the cover. So lots of issues.. but in its defense, it is from 1947. Asking $35. $30
