Question for everyone. I’m well aware of the newsstand market, and I’ve been collecting comics for 25+ years. I’ve actually been identifying newsstand editions for over 10 years, long before most people even knew what a newsstand edition was. But I have recently run into a large collection of solely newsstand edition comics that comprises about 15 long boxes. Any idea what I could get if I sold all 15 boxes in a single lot? I’m thinking eBay since Heritage and ComicLink seem to focus on single, graded issues or very small lots. Background: I’ll try to do my best to describe the lot. The seller used to be a magazine distributor and had a giant back stock of comics and magazines. So everything is new oldstock. Grades vary, as his oldstock was kept in apple boxes. So anything from VG to NM/MT. But most are high grade VF to NM/MT. The brunt of the books date 1990-1994, but there are plenty from 1995-1999. I pulled 8 copies of Heir to the Empire #1 and 5 copies of Batman Beyond #1. Other than that, most books are commons with only some being recognizable soft-keys (X-Force #1, Spider-Man 2099 #1, Spectacular Spider-Man #200, Superman #75, etc.). Publishers are Marvel, DC, Dark Horse, Image, Archie, Valiant, and Malibu. There are plenty of kids books ranging from Archie vs. the Punisher to Beauty and the Beast, Little Mermaid, TMNT, Biker Alice From Mars, Cowboys of Moo-Mesa, etc. But it’s a lot of random commons such as Marvel Summer Special 1992. I’m actually surprised that some of these Non-Marvel and DC issues even hit the newsstand. Random later copies of Brigade and Bloodshot. There are a few issues of Spawn, but all are in the first 20 issues. All have UPC logos. Any idea what this is worth in today’s market?

Due to COVID, at this time we are ONLY shipping to US addresses, we apologize for any inconvenience this causes. 3. As I don't go out very often anymore, it is possible that it may take up to two weeks for me to ship out your item after payment.

This sale is about 20 years in the making, as I have been hoarding these Miller DD Newsstands for a long time while continually updating my own collection. Newsstand Editions are much rarer, and in my opinion, much more desirable than the common Direct Sales Editions out there. I have previously written about this topic. If you're interested, here is my journal from about seven years ago: In Praise of Newsstand Editions. I have just about completed my personal collection (none of which are for sale, but all of which you can view here: Cardiac Kid's Miller Daredevils), although I am STILL SEEKING a What If 35, Newsstand Edition CGC 9.8 with white pages. I am convinced that it is a UNICORN. I have been scouring eBay, ComicLink, Pedigree, etc. . . . all of the usual sites for TWO DECADES and I have never seen one. There are plenty of Direct Sales Editions our there . . . which further illustrates my point about the rarity of Newsstand Editions . . . but I am not interested in Direct Sales Editions or I would already own one. If there is anyone reading this who has a What If 35 which fits my criteria, please be advised that I will either: (1) overpay for it, if you would like to sell it, or: (2) trade you multiple books from this thread, if you would like me to trade you for it. I don't expect to hear from anyone who has one because I don't think anyone does. Anyway, let's get to the sale. RULES: No HOS/probationers; Bank of America check preferred and will receive a 5% discount off the prices listed. If your bank is not Bank of America, or you prefer to use PayPal, the prices stand; Shipping to the Continental U.S. via U.S. Post Office Priority Mail, is $10.00. The cost to me will no doubt be more than that, but that will be your contribution. Shipping to Hawaii, Alaska is $15.00. Shipping to Canada is $20.00. International shipping will be need to be determined based on where you live. No returns on the slabs; if you need more information about any particular one, please let me know and I am sure I can provide an answer; I'll mark books SOLD as soon as I can, but if another boardie beats me to it, then he/she is the winner! Thus ... the first (or variant thereof) in the thread claims the book(s) and trumps ANY negotiations via PM; If you are paying by PayPal, I expect payment within a couple of days. If you are mailing a check, I expect to receive it within a week. If you take longer than that, I reserve the right to put the book back up for sale. Communication is the key, however; if you stay in touch with me, I will likely bend these rules, depending on what you have to say' I am not sure how long I will keep this thread open. Ultimately, what does not sell here will be posted to eBay at higher prices. GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY HUNTING!
