The Books  Some very nice CGC graded books and over 200 raw mostly PCH and crime books.  General Rules   No PL/HOS members  The new board software does not display precise thread post times (either in PMs or in sales threads), which can result in the inability to determine whether a PM post or thread post came first. One thing remains certain - it is easy to tell whether one post in a thread came before another post in the same thread. So, the first "take it" posted in the sales thread wins. If we reach a deal via PM, I'll mark books SOLD in the thread as soon as reasonably possible - but if someone else takes the book in the thread before your PM take is acknowledged in the thread (by either you or I), the thread poster is the winner, I'm afraid; so, there is some risk of losing a book if you try to remain anonymous via PM. (Credit to EC Ed for these rules. I have adapted them with his permission)  I kindly ask that you not Quote a book and then make a comment. It makes the book appear to be sold.  Payment  I'll take PayPal for total sales under $1000 if PayPal is your preferred method. Personal checks, or USPS money orders for total sales $1000 or higher.  When the thread is over an invoice will be sent with PayPal address.      I'll expect payment within 10 calendar days of invoice, or the book will be available for sale again (unless we've made other payment arrangements) Time payments are available for purchases of $2500 or more with 20% non-refundable deposit and installment payments so purchase is paid in full no later than 90 days and up to 120 days can be available for $10,000 or more (please PM first). If monthly installments are more than 10 days late or payment is defaulted the 20% deposit will be retained by the seller but the rest of monies will be returned to the buyer and the sale will be nullified. I reserve the right to not take time payments.   Shipping Terms USA: $10 for raw and $18 for graded in any quantity. I ship USPS priority with signature required. I pack in Gemini boxes in a USPS legal flat rate envelope for raw books and a Med flat rate box for slabs. Please note the shipping prices are slightly higher than they used to be. It is costing a little more these days.   Canada: $15 for raw and $25 for graded in any quantity. Overseas- Shipping at cost. I only ship overseas to established board members with references. I now only ship one time a week so please be patient as it could take up to 10 days to ship your purchase.  Returns/Refunds  General Policy: I will accept returns on raw books within 30 days of your receipt of the books, as long as the books are returned to me as they were when you received them. There are NO RETURNS on CGC graded books. I always accept returns on raw books within 6 months if I missed restoration or the CGC grade is more than 1 grade off (for example I call a raw book a 5.0 and it comes back a 4.5 -no return. If it comes back a 4.0 you can return the book if you want for a full refund plus your shipping to me). 

OPEN TO OFFERS, TRADES, TIME-PAYMENTS, & ANY COMBINATION OF THE 3!! Normal Apply: No probies or Bad-List B-Holes 1st unconditional wins the book, but PM's & offers are more than welcome! Priority shipping is covered by me to anywhere in the U.S. (international buyers PM for prices) I accept paypal, check, money order, or any other reasonable form of payment (no magic beans please ) Returns are accepted only if the reason is reasonably reasonable. My ebay handle is topcitycomics....I have over 2150 feedback on there...and for even more reading, my kudos thread is quite thrilling.... https://www.cgccomics.com/boards/topic/245483-top-city-comics-feedback-thread/ THANKS FER LOOKIN!!!

Rules: PayPal only please. Shipping is a flat $15 for slabs $7 for raw books (in the US only, sorry) unless stated otherwise, shipped in a USPS flat rate priority mail box for slabs. Nobody from the lists. First take wins (including over ALL PM discussions) No returns on slabs. Returns on raw books are accepted no questions asked. Buyer pays return shipping unless I have overlooked something major, so please be sure before you purchase. References: I don't have an official thread, bought I have bought plenty here and sold some too.

But First! The RULES!!! No HOSers, Probies or other malcontents. First in the thread trumps all DM, PM or other negotiated agreements. Payment is PayPal, Check or Money Order up to $1000, thereafter only Check or Money order (everything has to clear before book sent out) Shipping within the US will be included in the prices, as these are all slabs they will be sent USPS Priority box. Outside US we can discuss shipping. No returns, they are slabbed and are what they are. Breakage during shipment will be insured and I will cooperate fully with any claims that need be made (I pack well, so I don't anticipate any issues here). I welcome offers, especially for multiple books. Will leave this up for a few days, or until everything is sold. Thanks for looking!

Hey everybody! I am trying to find a chamber of chills 24 in any condition or grade. I’ll include a picture of the comic at hand. I really appreciate everyone’s help!

I have a series of 1950's books coming up tonight. They will only be here for a short time before I take them to another venue. These are lower grade copies that are duplicates in my collection. I've looked through each book and will note any major defect. Otherwise, I'll add hi-res scans for you to see the grade for yourself. My opinion on grade is a conservative estimate in my opinion. I will consider reasonable offers on all items BUT an unconditional in the thread or by PM trumps. Competing claims will be decided by time stamp. I will not sell to the probate or the banned. Payment is by Paypal goods and services. Shipping is 8.00 for up to 5 raw books. International shipping from the USA needs to be discussed and calculated prior to claiming. I will accept a return on these items within 7 days. If anyone has any further concerns please PM me. Please leave feedback for me. Thanks, Chris

Hey gang how’s it going? I hope this message finds you well. I am looking for a chamber of chills 24 to buy or multiple copies of it, grade doesn’t really bother me as long as it presents nice.

Life has hit the wife and I hard lately with some significant medical costs (again) for our children. It’s time I sell comics to pay for the mounting debt and upcoming costs for their care. We are in a bit of crisis mode with one of our children, so if for any reason I do not respond to a message please know that I am not ignoring your message and I will return it as soon as I can. Payments: PayPal, check or Money Order accepted. Prefer check and money order for purchases over $1000. Shipping: First comic is $15.00 for slabs and $10.00 for raw. Orders of multiple books will receive discounted shipping based upon weight. Insurance will be included as part of the shipping cost. International orders will be charged exact shipping. Please contact me for a quote. Other: I will not sell to any Hall of Shamers or anyone on the Probation list. Return Policy: Returns not accepted for Slabs. Returns for raw accepted within 14 days of the sale date. Items must be return shipped in the same condition prior to refund. Please ask any questions before committing to buy.

Does earmarking sales proceeds for a particular purpose increase forum sales? Let's find out. My house was damaged by a tornado here in Oklahoma on Memorial Day weekend...and my dog ran up a big bill during 3 days in intensive care at the vet due to an unrelated matter...but I have yet another reason to raise cash. All my children are grown, so I don't need baby diapers, but I am rapidly aging, and now is a great time to build a stockpile of Depends, if for nothing else than making cross-country drives without having to stop at restrooms. 1st “I'll Take It!” in the thread wins and trumps all private negotiations. NOTE: To maintain an even playing field, a simple “take” (but nothing shorter) will do. Make sure to quote the book you are taking. Payment by PayPal within 24 hours of invoice. This will be a short listing and active for only a couple of days. I like to get payments in, ship books right out, and get back to things like reroofing the house, repairing a blown out dining room window and replacing all of the fencing that landed on my patio up against the back door. To avoid confusion, please do not rescind your take or swap with others on the thread. Shipping in USA is $8 for a USPS Priority flat (up to 3 raw books) or $15 for a box (slabbed book or 4+ raws). For outside the U.S., PM me and let's discuss before taking. No returns on slabbed books, but for raw contact me within three days of receipt and send it back on your dime in the same shape. Of course, if I missed something important I'll pay for return shipping. No probation listers or HOSers. Please do not quote and comment on books, because it confuses some into thinking a book is sold when it is not.

What’s for Sale? GA, GGA, PCH, Romance, Sci-Fi and Matt Baker. Who can buy? No selling to those on the probation list. Payment: Prefer check but will take PayPal. Returns: No returns on CGC books. Shipping: Free shipping within the U.S. Will be sent Priority Mail. Shipping costs to Canada will be the difference in the cost for U.S. shipping. Difference will be paid by the buyer. Winning: First unconditional “Take” in the thread gets it. Time stamp rules if multiple “Takes”. A “Take” in the thread trumps any PM negotiations until the post has been updated as “Taken”.

Hi all. I’m looking for some PCH comics. Cool covers. Examples would Punch Comics with the skull or LB Cole covers like the Mask #1 or covers done by Matt Baker.

I have about 50 books to list, maybe a few more. I'm going to do these alphabetically, so Wednesday night I'll end with Wonder Woman. Almost all of these are books I've had for some time, I'm just consolidating a little, paying for some windows, some purchases, but mostly consolidating and these are the books I kept. I should be able to list about 23 tonight. The rest will be Wednesday night at 8pm EST. I'm going to do shipping at my cost to be fair to those who are out of the Country or across the Country or near me. If you need a shipping quote, just ask. I use regional boxes whenever it's practical and I pay for private insurance and if you spend more than $200, I will pay for the signature that my insurance requires. I accept Paypal, Checks or Money Orders. Payment is due in 7 days unless we have made arrangements before you hit the Take it sign. First take it wins. In case of a tie, the one visible on the boards wins. Returns for any reason, but the book must be returned in the same manner it was shipped within 7 days of receipt. Return shipping costs are to be paid by the buyer unless I made an error.. No list people please. To the best of my knowledge none of these books have been pressed...some might have been spindled or muti...let's not go there;)
