    Is there a more undervalued comic book than Crime Does Not Pay 22 (1943)? This book started what I call the Third Era in the History of the 20th Century American Comic Book (the First era being the Humor Comics that started with Funnies on Parade in 1933 followed by the Second era coinciding with the introduction of Superman and the Superhero Age with Action Comics 1 in 1938). The crime comics would surpass the popularity of the declining superhero based book during the years immediately following the end of the Second World War. Crime would be followed by romance and horror during the postwar years. We know what happened then and this one started it all (not my copy):

    It wouldn't necessarily have to be different standards for different consignors though. They could do something like eBay does where you obtain status as a '3-star' seller or somesuchlike thing with spelled-out bench marks that you have to hit to be exempt from storage fees. Doesn't really affect me because I'm no well-endowed meat-swinger on their site, I'm small potatoes, but it could be done.

    This seems like a decent idea and a potential carrot for sellers.
