i used to have Transformers #1 and Wolverine #1 (of 4) i got a shitload of old Uncanny Xmen from the 70's. i have to say i loved reading the old stories. newer comics seem to focus on big tits, art, and fights, not much character development or plot. I blame Image comics. I did like W.i.l.d.c.a.t.s. tho
there are comic pricing guides available.

heh heh good luck
I got offered pennies for my comics at local comic shops... I have 10,000+ comics mainly from 70's and 90's.
I think your best bet really is Ebay. Even on Ebay it seems like comics sell way below value. Like $1 an issue.

Ebay seems to be the best bet, but instead of pennies you get a couple dollars.
Hence why I still have all my 10,000+ comics. Wasn't worth selling it.
Hell I'd even take $1 per comic. LOL

i wouldn't sell my shit for $1/each, that's ridiculous! apparently there's more to the collection than i thought... another box to sort through. i knew the collection wasn't complete when i was sorting it out!
and yes, i can understand local shops not offering much. but, IF i were to sell it to them cheap, they'd just turn around and sell it for $50-$500 each now wouldn't they? :P

seems like a lot of effort just to sell some comics :/
shipping 30-40lbs worth of comics ain't gonna be cheap either!
other than appraising it, what else is included? do they seal it up nicely for you too?

I remember going into this really old comic store somewhere near the Seattle Pike Place Market. It was really old school and it was packed with people....I think I spent almost an hour in there just looking at vintage action figures and posters and all sorts of cool stuff....

If you can wait, hold on to them till the economy gets better. I noticed goods that are collectibles are going for less now than before.
Not a lot of disposable income nowadays if you are reaching for the American market.

they seal it in a hard plastic casing which doesn't secrete acid or something like poly-bags and they place some sort of film between the cover pages so that nothing will leak onto the comic pages, etc and they provide an increased sense of insurance to buyers when they see its been graded/protected by the cgc
but i would only send in the really old ones that you're sure are worth a nice $$ since they do charge per-copy Quote:

hmmm icic that's very interesting but i wonder how much they charge per issue. it's unfortunate most of my more valuable and notable comics aren't in mint condition. otherwise, i'd probably do this in a heartbeat.

By the time you get your graded comics back, you will be in so much debt in terms of shipping charges! LOL! Those things are heavy! It's heavy duty plastic, air tight, and almost indestructible! Well ... they can crack. But ... they are heavy duty! They are practically meant to be archived and never be opened again.
However, if anyone has "The Goon" from Dark Horse in good condition issues 1-2something, I'll buy them. =D
