    80k is a fair deal for both of you. VERY GARY would've closed this deal for 8k and walked out leaving the seller thinking he sold at a great price.
    That is a collection 99% of comic book collectors (including myself) wish they had. I know you have to sell them because it's your job, but......there are so many keepers there.

    • @ComicBookInvestments
      @ComicBookInvestments  3 роки тому +1

      Ya I try to be as fair as possible. I tell people the truth. Like roughly how much I will make of this and how long it will take me to move. I think just being honest and up front is the best method. Plus letting them know the truth of how much their collection is worth. I think it’s bad business to take advantage of someone then they found out months or years later. Because word of mouth is the best form of advertising. If both people are happy then that’s the best type of deal

My first collection I destroyed after my sister put a glass of soda on a Nick Fury agent of Shield #1putting a water ring right through the cover I just got when I was 7. My mom told me it was my fault so I snapped and tore up my comic collection! I think at the time it was 2 short boxes and nothing really valuable. Ah the mind of a child!

    Damn I need your job. It’s not really a job, it’s a passion. But I’d end up keeping them all…
    But the FF story you told. I have heard conflicting stories. From Stan Lee. I heard him say the the FF came because Martin Goodman was playing golf with the DC head guy and he was bragging about how well the justice league was selling so Martin told Stan to do a superhero team book.
    Spiderman was the book he wrote the way he wanted before he was going to quit. That’s why it was the last issue of amazing fantasy. They were getting rid of the title anyway.
    Anyway, I think Stan told them both different every time 😂

      best way is put all the comics in a short box, then if there is extra room in the short box to pad that with packing material. Then you and take an extra short box lid, and put it on the bottom of the box. So there is a lid at the top and bottom. tape that all up. Id then put that inside a shipping box with bubble wrap or packing peanuts and you're good

      none for the PC, but if I were it would be the xmen 1 and FF 1, those are hard to get these days

      @@ComicBookInvestments I have almost a complete run of X-Men that I’m thinking about selling because of the way the market is now. But it’s just so damn hard as I’ve been collecting them for years. It’s like a third kid. How do you just let it go? LOL

    Just a thought. I remember Stan lee making a statement about how the X-men stories as far as mutant rights were similar to what was going on in America at that time and civil rights. Not sure but maybe that was the reason X-men weren’t as popular in the 60s…

    I got a FF #1 as an Easter Present in an Easter Basket from my pops back in 1974. Dont know what ever happened to it. Probably fell victim to my mother. As the saying goes Old comics never die, your mother just threw them away(kind of a parody of a quote from General MacArthur).
