Hmmm., cute. Someone edited my comment about an undesirable ebay customer. Sorry, I didnt know my description would be offensive, but I understand why it would be edited. My apologies to whoever. It wonr happen again.

No, never sold a comic on ebay. Was some person_who_is_obnoxiously_self-impressed over a $9.00 item

HA ! !

Would you mind sharing what you got for the 9.8 ?

I been selling coins and precious metal on ebay for 16 years. Got 13000 positives and 1 negative.

VERY good advice ! Thanks. It might make for a good story to tell that I originally bought 500 of them. Someone, and I dont remember now who it was, in the coin dealer community told me about the movie coming out in 1977 and said that there was a comic book coming out ahead of the movie and that I could probably double my money if if i bought them and sold them when the movie came out. I ordered 500 through a comic book distributor, and i got a break on the price because of the qty. I paid 24 cents each. I sold 100 a few weeks later at $3. each.then over the years, whenever a new S/W movie came out, I would sell a few issues. The last time I sold some about 6-8 yrs ago, I got around $13 to $17. The I put the last hundred in safe storage. Then recently, hearing about the new movie, i decided to check out what that issue was doing on ebay. I think I saw one graded 9,7 sell for 2 grand. I crapped my pants and then went to dig them out of storage. When I sent them to cgc, I opted for the 5 day express service on , what I considered the best 20 comics. CGC tells me they're shipping them to me on monday. The rest are in for 5-6 weeks. Fortunately, I dont NEED to sell them. Maybe a few, then leave em in my will among my kids and grandkids. I've had some good score in my coin business over the years, but this one is probably my best score. (if they grade out as high as i think they will)

Thanks ! I was thinking exactly the same strategy, point for point, as you advised. I thot I would start with lowest grades first and work my way up as we get closer to the release of the movie.

I have 100 Star Wars No. 1 Comics They're all at CGC at this time for slabbing. Anyone have any advice or comments regarding the liquidation of this hoard ? Obviously I'm looking to capitalize on the release of the new movie coming out in December. But I dont know how to go about it without overwhelming the market with one hundred issues in fresh mint condition. Or am I overthinking it and the marketplace is big enough to absorb all of them without effecting the prices ? What do you guys think ?
