Barks collection discovered in Old California! DD 4 color #300

[GST-migration]

Just re-discovered my old collection in storage-- Up for sale are what I think are the 40 or so best copies among about 300 Barks books. Most are in 4-6.0 range.

 

I thought Bill (clorac) handled his Disney sale pretty well, and I will try to do the same. However I don't use PayPal, so checks or Money Orders are welcome.

 

I have tried to grade and price these conservatively, but offers are welcome.

 

It looks to me like most of you ship USPS media rate? Are there any other shipping preferences?

 

I'll start slow while I get used to things and then add more stuff-- any guidance is much appreciated.

 

First (sorry this image is so large, will make 'em smaller in the future):

 

Four Color #300

Grade 5.5

Wish I could find my Spiderman collection. I left it in my bedroom 35 years ago when I left for the Navy, and when I got back, I couldn't find it.

The picture size is fine. Scans are preferred. Showing the back cover helps as well. Since you are brand new and this selling thread is your first post, you may want to provide some references. And, given that you are new, I would suggest accepting Paypal so that buyers feel more comfortable about not getting scammed.

 

 

All of that said, welcome to the boards. As a Duck collector, I'll be watching your thread.

Who is Clorac?

I would personally like to have references before I spend any money with you. This board is a community where people come to talk about comics and related subjects. The selling portion of the board is a bonus. This is not ebay.

 

I think most boardies would prefer that you join in the community before you crank up a selling thread.

Forgive me if I view this offer with suspicion. No history on the boards whatsoever will likely get you very little action.

Yeah, my first thread was a selling one and I was trying to sell a restored FOUR COLOR #16. Needless to say, NOTHING happened. Now I understand why.

 

No rep = lack of consumer confidence.

 

Good luck though!

Making a second post would probably be a good start...

Every few months I like to wander into my storage area and discover my collection all over again.

Thanks everyone for your input-- just what I was hoping for, and I appreciate your integrity and helpful advice. I have moved the collection upstate to the office where I can fire up the scanner and get more books posted soon.

 

Life is pretty busy nowadays, so I can't hang out on boards as much as I'd like. But I will try to be more sociable when time permits. I realize the obligation is mine.

Everyone likes Barks ducks. I hope we see them again.
