Selling Comics to Help Dad

Off Topic
1

My father has had major health problems and I’m selling my old comic books to help him pay his bills since he is self-employed and his income is down 75% from last year.

I’m still preparing my list for eBay but I wanted to give the exclusivity to T-Nation members first.

(This is only the first part of the list. My full list is 3 times bigger and includes X-Men comics (Inferno and up)).

Almost all were bought in comics stores in the standard carboard & plastic bag protector kits.

Feel free to PM me for specifics.

Thank you for your consideration!

Is any of this stuff CGC graded? What is the condition?

You haven’t posted anything here that would garner you more than a few bucks.

How much money are you trying to pull in with this?

Like Wayne Gretzky said, you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.

Like you said, there’s probably not a fortune to be made with this. And maybe there’s something in there for people who have collections, favorites, or whatever. Who knows?

What have I got to lose? Asides eBay fees, nothing. If these (generally) first print comics are not worth their paper after 15+ years, so be it. I`ll give away the balance to a local library or charity if there’s no success on the Net.

Simple as that.

I hope everything’s okay with your dad, but…

I don’t even know if you’ll break even with the eBay fees on these.

They’re all from the “Speculator’s Age” of comics.

A lot of this stuff is dollar, or even quarter bin, stuff.

Sorry.
