I forgot to add I have an important reason to offer up this sale..maybe the most in my life ever.any amount I earn will go toward the item (which could save my dads life)but I will donate the amount total at the end of this sale to a charity of the boards choosing.

ie I earn $168 for ex.. I will use that money now but when more able feb /march I will donate $168 to the chosen charity

I'm going be doing a small-ish like 20 tpb's, GN, HC tomorrow in copper/modern.  It'll be mostly marvel, but there will be some other stuff too.  If you caught the one I had last month, prices were pretty low on the avg, blow out in many cases.  And there will be a few nicer/rarer ones mixed in.  Worth a look, if you wann stop by around noon eastern hour.

 

thanks.

I know a lot of people are at the NYCC, but I hope some of us are still around the boards.

Tonight starting at 8, I'll be listing some Tales to Astonish books (the hero ones). About 1/2 are from original owner collections. Prices will be good (I hope;) 

I'll probably finish tomorrow night, and add some Tales of Suspense books, including one with a Kirby Signature.

All books are raw, unpressed etc.

See ya;)

Mostly Marvel, silver and bronze, handful of slabs, mostly raw and unpressed.

Probable start: Fri 9 PM central.  For at least an hour.  If I don't finish it will carry over into Sat night for the rest. I'll probably leave it open on Sunday, and then ship by Tuesday.

At least five dozen items, maybe some sets at the end, a dozen big keys, a dozen minor keys, two dozen nicer copies for 'runs' collectors (Thor, ASM, FF, Avengers), key features on keys tend to be very presentable mid-grades.

You can check my last 100 items sold on ebay the past couple of months for a sense of what titles to expect, and my pricing - and I'll probably be below my ebay pricing on most of it. link  Not that I'll be listing anything spectacular, but it's a cut above the stuff I was moving on ebay, and I've never offered it there (except I'll be ending three of the listings if unsold and moving them over here at reduced price).

Most of the keys worth mentioning: Av 57, X Men 94, Conan 1, MSH 12 and 18, ASM 101, 121, 122 (raw and slabbed each of the last 2), 238 (if can confirm it's still Bronze in '83 like ebay and wikipedia say and not see my thread disappeared), Thor 165, SA 110 (choice of 2, one I'm keeping), ST 110, and more pedestrian but still cool items like high grade Frankenstein 1 9.0-, a few WBN keys (MS2, and #1, 32), and decent presenting lower grade copies of, e.g., ST 135, DD 7, or Cap 110.  And a few Thanos items (first couple of apps, etc.).

No PMs about the keys, please!  I reserve the right to wimp out and not list 'em, however unlikely.

Most are in the $14-150 range, but maybe 10 bronze books will dip to $5 - $8 range, so I'll have a cheap shipping alternative (see pic) at $4 up to 10 books (but only up to 6 get the layer of bubble wrap).  The Duck, Bat and Garter (1, 2, & 4 books) will NOT be listed, I just like krappy pic in bags.  And if you miss this one, I probably have one more similar thread in me (and my boxes), a repeat of 90% of the same keys and new filler like higher grade run issues (probably in four months after I move another few long boxes on ebay and accumulate a stack of 'pulls' of the nicer things).

Time to get some more books graded for sale.  Will be doing them in batches.  most are probably 4-5s to my uneducated eye - with the exception of a couple old ASM with tape up the spine <cringe>.  If anyone has specific interest in any of these, I'll bump them to the head of the line to grade:

 

ASM: 15, 18, 19, 27, 41, 42, 44, 45, 47, 48, 49, 50, 53, 57, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 75, 76, 77, 100, 121, 122 (the Gwen Stacy issues are in much better shape)

ASM Annual: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

DD: 2, 3, 5

X-men 24, 41, 42, 94-103, GS1 (bronze age books are in much better shape)

TOS: 40

 

Will be a few weeks lead time as these have to be sent in.  Thanks for your interest

Will pics to be added, again any requests will move to front of list.

It's almost time! I've been buying all year long and I've been sticking books aside all year to offer here first. This thread probably won't be quite as massive as in the past but I anticipate listing around 500-600 books, with loads of keys, semi keys, high grades and low grades, and probably around 100 golden age and pre code issues. 

Thinking I will start listing on Thursday the 7th at 8 cst. Here are a few pics of much of what will be offered on the first night. There will also be several surprises added along the way.

I plan to start listing about 250 raw books tonight (Friday) after Marvels Agent of Shield which would be about 10pm east coast time.  Probably not all of them but will continue again Saturday night and maybe again Sunday night till all are listed.  This would include Captain Marvels, MSH 13, Our army at wars, Run of Hero for Hire, Atoms, Brave and the Bolds, and Avengers for now.

I'm having a Marvel Mutants (plus Deadpool) sale starting tonight (Monday), maybe around 6-7 eastern?  I'll post for a few hours a day this week until I run out.  Its probably just a little less than a longbox full.  It'll be in the Copper/Modern area, mostly raw.

1st apps, minor keys, a few newssies, a few variants, a lot of early Deadpool, definitely some stuff you don't see every day.  Very little if any really modern modern stuff (though there might be some), a couple signed comics and a couple foreign editions.

Stop by, you'll probably find something you like.

 

Thanks.
