I try to be efficiant and sometimes its results in me going faster when flipping through books which can look on camera as if I am damaging them . I can promise you i care about the condition of comic books as much if not more than anyone else . It is something i definitely need to work on though 🤣. Thanks for checking out the video! Have a great day -Angelo
Wow....the comic handling professionals are out on this video!! If they are bagged and boarded, they are fine. If not, then nobodies expecting them to stay in mint condition.
I've seen much worse handling from store owners and most of these books were at least bagged and boarded before being tossed in a pile by the antiques shop.
The reason the books are so beat up is because of one handed sorters. You have no respect for the books you pass up. You may not want them but leave them cool for the next person. Thanks for the show.
Comics aren't made for Handicapped people I guess? 🤣. The Books are beat up because the guy that owns them doesn't take care of them . If you check out my "Storage Unit " Video you'll see what I mean . Thanks for watching 👍.
Do you want to go to the shop and correctly bag and board the books so that they start in "pristine" condition? Lol. Relax, when they're just randomly stacked, there's no way you can be careful.
I sold a NM FF #26 back in the early 90’s at one of my dad’s booths in an Antique mall… displayed in one of his glass cases. It was a beautiful copy. Sold for $300. Needed the money for college tuition.
I think you guys are fine on the handling of the books in these shops. The best thing you can do is getting these books OUT of the antique shop.. I might offer the shop a flat price for a short box and see what they would take.
At 8:28 on the lower right of the screen ( under the short box) there is a psychedelic print. That very well could be marvel greetings cards from the 60s. They are worth serious cash. And cool looking
Just started collecting Phantom comics again after 15 years - any tips for starting out? Found a few good bundles to start off with from local sellers plus some nice editions on ebay. New Sub love the channel.
Thanks for watching. Sometimes I have luck on ebay when I am looking for something specific or HTF. Conventions are a great way to find things also. If a dealer doesn't have it at the show they might have one at home so always ask.
I have been to literally well over 100 antique stores through out my state and several others and I have never once found any that come even close to half the amount of comics some of the stores in this video had. Prices were definitely high though.
All my antique shop has is old clothes and popcorn tins full of sewing supplies. And a lot of pro Nazi stuff for some reason. Nevermind it's my Grandma's house, my bad.
Nice video guys. I was jealous Lol. Nothing like the hunt for old comic books. Forgive me if you already know now but Crisis On Infinite Earths #4 is the 2nd John Constantine 👍
There were a lot of nice books I would have been tempted by, but when you pulled up that Ghosts of Doctor Graves, you had my attention. I dig those old Charleton horror books. Great video!
Antique stores are a mixed bag for sure. They try to probably ask higher than they are willing to take expecting people to haggle, but then they also often do not know what they have. I bought two copies of Wolverine #1 vol.2 and Suicide Squad #1 vol.1 from an antique store and gave them their full asking price of $10.
Nice video guys. I love me a good antique shop and flea market hunt. Always fun to find books where most people wouldn't think of going. There are books still out in the wild just need to go and find them. Great job guys. Keep up the good content. 👊🏼
Nice video! You never know what you will find at those antique shops. I would have been tempted to get some of those Silver Age Atom's, Blackhawk's and Showcase's. They wouldn't make a deal on the Werewolf by Night's!!??
Great video!! Wow!!! I would love to have been there with you guys because all of those Werewolf By Night comics would’ve been coming home with me. Lol. Lots of great comics at the first store. 😎
That one booth was very up/down price wise as we saw. Its like the booth guy was going between slapping $3.99 to $9.99 on books in different ways lol. Usually some antique store booths have solid deals at times.
Cool vid. More fun than actually going through comics at the antique malls. We have a ton in my state and most just have poor condition comics at high prices. Or occasionally nice condition stuff at an ebay price. But I gotta do something while the wife is antiquing.
I felt alone going to non comic book stores, I’ll still keep going to the two stores I go to, the only new comic book I’m buying right now is The Rise.
I source comics all over the place and I have a few spots that have a lot of back issues for $1.00, $2.00 and $3.00. I am trying to fill in hole for a collection started long ago. I try not to spend more than $20.00 for something scarce to me. EBay has been hit and miss and people are very disingenuous when selling books so be sure that sellers take detailed pics, if they don't that should tell you something.
Damn y’all are spoiled having so many to flip through at your local antique stores. Mine have maybe 10 books and they are all junk. That being said.. take a small stack out instead of bending them so hard to look.
The thrift store gives me 30% off sticker price so it leaves me room to resell sometimes . what I basically do is list my entire collection on eBay for everyone to look at and buy from if they enjoy the comics I buy in the wild . if you see something over priced on my eBay its most likely because its something I would like to hold onto 😂.
Oh come on. The prices are mostly crazy, you don't get to choose what comics you want (it's only what you find) and you completely ignore the amount of time dedicated to finding 'bargains. Antique shops are horrible places for comics if you are honest with yourself.
Man the aggressiveness in which you handle these books is disheartening.

@@TheComicsDen the recording had a fish eye lens effect , so it gave the appearance that the comics were bending, but they weren’t. You were fine 👌

I love how he says they're a little beat up as he smashes through them!
I wish I had antique stores that had comics like that 😂
One of the Fantastic fours u pulled an put back was the 1st app of Agatha. Caught slipping 😆
nice page and talk ....i like video like this showing places and buying not just talking in face ....good job love from italy

Most antique shops I've been in have their comics way over priced. They use price guides which are at least double the prices on eBay.
Or use Mile high comic prices, they have insane prices 3x or even 4x, when compared to eBay listing prices
Those Punisher comics you blew by were actually worth some good money.
LOL

I just watched this. I've seen so many of your newer vids. This was a fun watch :) ...I not gonna lie, you two look so young in this.
Great video, watching what you found in the first one, i was like "shiiit it's gonna be an expensive one for you" 😀
Greatest feeling is to find a nice comic from thrifts, garage sales & flea mkts
Great finds. I like those silver and Bronze Age horror books, some of which Neal Adams did great covers on.
I want all those Superboys.
That's really cool fine even a man who says his prayers when the wolfbane Growers will become a werewolf by night
I'm a big fan of John Buscema, who did the original 'Savage" She-Hulk pencil work, as well as the 'Savage' Sword of Conan and Conan the Barbarian.
You passed Vampirella!?? How dare you!!🧛
When you find Alan Moore Swamp Things cheap you buy em

Antique malls and random shops are where I find some insane books! Been really enjoying the videos lately my friends.
Yeah sometimes you can find some great stuff! Thanks for the support :) -Sara
Hii... Awesome ❤ alot of good books
I wish I could find stuff locally like that.
Yall got a lot of options. That's awesome.
Antique shops look like my house would look if I were loaded, lol... Just hoarding a bunch of goodies
would have grabbed that marvel spotlight in 2 seconds

That Alan Moore Swamp Thing you found is my favorite comic book run!! Have you read that story?? I think it’s incredible
I have not but maybe I should ! . Thanks for the support on the video 👍.
@@TheComicsDen yea it starts at issue 21 and ends around 60 I believe… definitely worth your time
@@jacobbornowsky4013 Says a lot that they didn't even KNOW it was the Alan Moore run.
Great video!! Wow!!! I would love to have been there with you guys because all of those Werewolf By Night comics would’ve been coming home with me. Lol. Lots of great comics at the first store. 😎

I think it's kinda funny how the dude just stole the show during the introduction. Dude just knows how to be a youtuber.
The thing is, eventually ALL of these books are going to be valuable, and you don't know what is going to be a "Key" in the future.

Very nice❤
great fun thanks
Man was hoping to see some of those Thor books. Really good finds though
I hunt at the same antique mall in Oviedo.... Now I know why I never see good comics LOL
10:57 What, you didn't like 'Les Miserables'?
You guys really work had to find the key issues!
Thank you! Sometimes it takes lots of digging to find the good books lol -Sara
Great finds guys
Thanks so much !
Holy spine ticks batman!!😬👎
Almost to that 1k!! Wahoo 🎉
🥳👍. So close !
🙂🙂🙂 I love comics
Hello
I checked out your ebay store thumbs up
You missed Razor
Damn y’all are spoiled having so many to flip through at your local antique stores. Mine have maybe 10 books and they are all junk. That being said.. take a small stack out instead of bending them so hard to look.
Interested in another collection?
PRICES?? LOL they'll be sitting on those... ridiculous.
Jealous of all the cool stuff you guys came across!
Its definitely a nice little spot . Great selection.
I want the last 13 minutes of my life back
Watch a couple of my other videos and you might get it back .
I don't get it are you resellers or collectors. Looks like you are selling comic books on eBay cheaper than the prices at the thrift stores you go to.
The thrift store gives me 30% off sticker price so it leaves me room to resell sometimes . what I basically do is list my entire collection on eBay for everyone to look at and buy from if they enjoy the comics I buy in the wild . if you see something over priced on my eBay its most likely because its something I would like to hold onto 😂.
Oh come on. The prices are mostly crazy, you don't get to choose what comics you want (it's only what you find) and you completely ignore the amount of time dedicated to finding 'bargains. Antique shops are horrible places for comics if you are honest with yourself.
Those comics are super overpriced. Gotta be careful with those antique malls.
What thehell are you doing to these comics, the owner should kick you out
You people are not doing a good job. Shameful.
Says who?
