Bart Allen Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 I've got Action Comics #11, #30 and #51 coverless (Superman only stories) pages. Each comic (13 pages with 7 front/back pages) only contains only the Superman related story and has had their edges neatly trimmed, with holes poked through the left margin. However, on Action Comics #11, a small ad-panel has been clipped from bottom corner of very last page, to which it doesn't affect the Superman story; however, slightly affects Scoop Scanlon story. Does anyone know a fair price would be? Link to post Share on other sites
kav Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 here'sa 0.5 action 11 with back cover and centerfold missing and detached front cover-yours should be somewhere in this ballparkhttps://www.ebay.com/itm/Action-Comics-11-CGC-0-5-1939-0266116003-1st-Superman-use-of-x-ray-vision/312960074950?hash=item48dddfc4c6:g:c6gAAOSwmnFeKL0G Bart Allen 1 Link to post Share on other sites
kav Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 The #30 should be maybe $100 and the 51 maybe $50 Bart Allen 1 Link to post Share on other sites
kav Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 wait if youre saying the rest of the books are gone except for the superman pages I revise my estimate-maybe $200 for 11 and like $30-$50 for the others silversurfer275 and Bart Allen 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I once listed superman 43 on ebay that all the pages were completely separated by termites-just a stack of covers/pages-I was surprised I got $47 for it.

I think thats your best bet for something like this dont do BIN. let some people fight over it and inflate the value amongst themselves. dont do 9 day auction either that annoys bidders-do 7 day, let chips fall where they may. Start at 99 cents to get as many involved as possible. Bart Allen 1 Link to post Share on other sites
kav Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 I once listed an auction on a magic trick with BIN $25. Bidding started and it sold for $45. Bart Allen and aardvark88 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Really? ^_^ That's awesome but I feel that because I live in England and use eBay.co.uk that it's somewhat different compared to - let's say for arguments sake - the American market ~ Link to post Share on other sites

I would do the 51 as an auction to test the waters. Bart Allen 1 Link to post Share on other sites

shadroch Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 It far from an exact match but a year or three ago, I bought a bunch of Captain Marvel books at auction. They had the covers and main story only. Rest of books were sliced out. At auction, they sold for less than.$5 a book. Your should bring more but I've no idea how much more. Start at a high asking price. You can always go down. I just sold a Special Marvel Edition 15 Mark Jewelers issue. I'd no idea what to price it at so I started at $550 and over two months lowered it to $301 where it sold. You can always adjust downward, it's hard to go up. kav and Bart Allen 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post KCOComics Posted March 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 24, 2020 Action 11 is a really cool book. I've got an incomplete one I'm deciding if i should sell or not. It's the first time superman used X-ray vision and some argue it's the first WWII cover. It came out in April 1939, so technically the war hadn't started yet. But tension were high in Europe and Japan was already engaged in war. Turnando, silversurfer275, ADAMANTIUM and 3 others 4 2 Link to post Share on other sites

William-James88 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 I agree with the idea of auctioning one off first. if you get a price you're ok with then do that with the other two. And if you don't, then at least you know the FMV and can put a BIN price that suits you. Link to post Share on other sites

Well yeah I may do that to be honest - at this rate -; I'll mull over it ~ Yeah, there's not really any base for comparison given the nature of it being trimmed and just with the Superman sections.

That's how it works on Canada eBay where I list, and most of my buyers are from the USA. Edited April 19, 2020 by SuperZar Link to post Share on other sites
SuperBird Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 The 11 might go for a little, but the others aren't worth enough to worry about. Maybe a sandwich each. aardvark88 1 Link to post Share on other sites
