I've done this a few times now. Buy a comic that's a bit out of my collecting league, enjoy it for a few weeks, and then sell it on. It's not flipping since I always make a loss on the deal lol

 

My ultra-low-grade mega keys however shall have to be pried from my cold dead fingers as they say.

 

Still working on ASM 1-100 in raw, sensible grades :)

(thumbs u I found a balance. By using 1's instead of L's in the name I can still search for mentions of Hellblazer without being swamped by my own posts. CopperComics is fine for my ebay store, but it's a bit generic for a forum ID.

 

He11blazer, who has a bit of an identity crisis*

 

 

*And now I'm sounding like Cal!

Welcome to the club... er, Boards Jberg! :hi:

 

I started my ASM collection by doing it the same way, but be warned: those mini runs turn into a disease I affectionately refer to as run collecting. This is a great title to collect, and personally, this is probably one of the cooler threads in the forum--very relaxed friendly bunch (i.e. not too much drama on this side of the boards ;) ).

 

And beware the Sales area--you'll generally find TONS of Spideys for sale at great prices. Brutal on the wallet :)

That's great, Tom!

And they're black covers too. That #63 is a toughie in HG but I'm sure you know that. Very nice! :applause:

 

Courtesy of KorvacSaga who was kind enough to let me cherry-pick these from his ASM 51-100 prior to his Board sale... (worship)

 

very much appreciated...they will be well-loved and cared for... :cloud9:

I will be in this collecting club once I finish my ASM 100-330 RUN.

 

I just sold the few the issues I owned from ASM 1-99 run (except my ASM #14 :cloud9:) and put that money into the run above.

 

So once that is finished I will be joining u guys in the hunt!
