First Thread as New Shop Owner CLOSED 2 2

[Deadlift Collectibles]

Hello, all. Apologies for the last few threads a couple of months back being a little disorganized. We had a massive life-shift and some comics got mixed up, but everything has been squared and we are now settled in our new, actual brick and mortar store in Edmond, Oklahoma. We've been moving 30,000+ comics to the new location and what was once only a part-time gig is now a full-time one. Now that we're settled and can get back to shipping promptly, I've decided to do our first official thread with better books (I've been selling lower grade books primarily the past few months.) I have some big collections coming in the next few months, so I thought that I'd drop a few things on here beforehand.

Rules:

•  First   gets it over PM.
•  Shipping for inside the U.S. is included in price. Contact me if you're out of the U.S. and we'll come to a cost (international minus what I'd pay for U.S.)
•  No returns on graded books.
•  Shipping is Priority for graded and 1st class for raw. Handling time is 2-3 days. Signature required on books over $1000.
•  PayPal is preferred. If you've bought using a different method, PM me.

First before I get the first books up, a few photos of my modest little shop:

Wow! Great looking store! I'll try to drop by and spend some money when I come to Oklahoma for Oafcon this year.

Giant-Size X-Men #1   CGC 7.5    $1970

Off-white to white pages. Case has one small scuff but is otherwise in excellent condition. Bought this from a boardie a few months ago before I knew I was going to be buying a shop. Ten years of collecting before I got my first GSX and now I have another one coming in. With shipping included (signature required) this is a bit below the GPA and about what I paid for it a few months ago.

Thank you! We'll be set up at OAFCON this year, so swing by our booth!

Captain America #113  CGC 9.0    $160

White pages!! Freshly slabbed, so the case is in great shape. I love this book and almost kept it for myself.

Sad Sack and the Sarge #1 (1957)  CGC 7.0    $100

Off-white to white pages. George Baker cover. Has a COA from the Cereal Box Collection. I'm not familiar with this, so if anyone has any info, I'd love to learn more.

Break for now. Some raw books a little later.

I will! I'll be there on Saturday; hopefully when the doors open.

Okay, I had a few questions about some photos of my shop, so I'll post this one up here. Bought from a boardie perhaps two years ago or so.

Fantastic Four #48  CGC 7.5  White Pages   $3000

Beautiful book with great color and white pages! Case is in excellent condition. Didn't think I'd let this one go a few months ago, but now that I have a shop and more stuff coming in, I'll throw it out there.

 

[Deadlift Collectibles]

I would consider partial trade-partial payment on either the Giant Size or the FF 48, if you have similar less-expensive keys.

Boomer Sooner!, unless your a Cowboys fan. See you next time I'm in Okla...

Store looks very inviting. And polished.

 So did you buy the comic book shop from the previous owner?   I live 20 minutes from the Vault

Yes, I did. I liked the location and bought out the inventory, which wasn't particularly good. But I had enough of my own stuff to fill the shop.

Thank you! My wife had a large part in the layout. We wanted an inviting atmosphere and one that could be functional for events. Everything is on wheels so we can rearrange the room as needed.

I'm a graduate from OSU! So no Boomer Sooner. But then again, I'm not from Oklahoma, so my blood isn't rooted in this rivalry.

[Deadlift Collectibles]

Long day at work. I'm going to start responding to everyone's messages. Thank you for the interest. I didn't get to raw books today, but should tomorrow.

Thank god. Yeah they had a poor selection. And like 1-2 graded comics.

Awesome! I'm in south OKC so I'll definitely come in and check out the shop! Nice to know there's a great brick and mortar store up the road!

Also, that FF48! Nice book!

[Deadlift Collectibles]

I have contacted everyone thus far who has reached out about FF 48. There are some definite possible offers. I'm going to add a few more books in the meantime...
