This last Wednesday at the comic book store there was a guy trying to sell his comics.  The owner said she was over stocked or something at the moment and suggested craigslist and avoid selling to halfpriced books.  At that point I'm standing there and say, "Watcha got?"  He said he has 5 long boxes he's just looking to sell each comic for $1.  So I stopped by and picked through his 5 long boxes.  $100 later I have 100 comics including the first 46 issues of Saga.  The first issue being the hard to find 4th printing.  All in amazing condition.  Also got a ton of the old Judge Dredd stuff where Jock did the art because I'm a sucker for Jock.  Early Deadpool stuff, but I can't get over that Saga score.

Nice. Always good to be at the right time and place. However, when buying 100 books, always demand a discount. What could the man have done?

I hear where you're coming from, but I just paid $1 for a book that sells for $200 raw.    Pretty good discount!

Good days work ....wish I had luck like that lol

Say your prayers and eat your veggies. Maybe someday. 

I was just showing off some 1930s tin toys I found at a garage sale.  My friend was admiring them ,saying how he never finds anything.  I asked him how many garage sales he'd been to and he said, one, maybe two.

With Saga #1 4th print selling on ebay right now unslabbed for $150- $200 I am happy.  Honestly didn't know that until after I got home and did some research.  

Saga 1 4th print goes for that much?
