You are by far the best youtuber for gaining knowledge on antiques and vintage niches and what sells a lot on ebay. Im fascinated by your knowledge! Thank you so much for taking the time to educate us with your expertise!
I am new to the channel and I think this every time I watch a video.
Wow, just wow! I found a couple gems myself at estate sales and thrift shops. Now you gave me a reason to hunt some more especially cause in Italy where I am almost everyone overlooks books in English ;-)
Fantastic video! Right down my alley! Love the old clips that were put in! Made me smile! 👍😄
Invaluable content as always. Thank you Don!
Awesome info here!! Love seeing all the old ads! Thanks so much for sharing!

Great video. Ever since I watched your belt video I make sure to look at belts now. Never knew paperbacks could be this valuable. Will now make sure to start looking at them at swap meets and thrift stores. Thanks for making these videos.
So much useful information!
Truly appreciate this info it saved me 1,000s by going through the paperbacks , now I just wonder what I threw away but by far great full for what i do got and for you saving me and what I've learned in the last 5 days is priceless !! 1 box had $500 in HC books by Eastman press and so many good paperbacks not any you mentioned but alot from 30 to 100 in value ,my nightmare storage unit turned into a diamond in the rough all thanks to you!!!
Very informative, thank you.
Thanks for the video and information

Great stuff to know
Loved it! Very informative and useful. I like your straight forward, gat to the point style, lots to learn quickly without the “fluff”.
I appreciate you.. thank you
Omg loved Dune. That book was so good.
I had a hard cover copy of "Thinner" by Richard Bachman with the fake photo and bio before it was revealed it was really a King book. I lent it to someone and never got it back. It has caused me deep regret for years.
I also made the mistake of loaning the Bachman books four books in one with rage and the long walk. Guy I loaned it to turned out to be a total jerk.
Loved this video and the valuable info....I'm a book hound anyway,so I will enjoy the hunt!👍😁
That was a good one! I want to go on the hunt now for some retro books!
You have so much knowledge. It always amazes me when someone corrects you or think they know more. Experience is the best teacher and you have plenty of that, plus your creativity and intelligence. This was a great vid.
Thanks for the heads up. My 60's gothic romance/horror & mystery pb's have been selling quickly and for good money. Will keep my eyes open for these. I love that most don't have ISBNs and are not checked by scanners.
I am going to have to check my thrifts as I love selling books vintage jewelry and artwork but I still sell clothes and many other items and want to get away from them as I have storage issues and would rather do smaller items and you have been giving me some great ideas
Truly appreciate this video at this exact time!!! Just bought a storage unit with 50 boxes of paperbacks ,unfortunately I threw away 15 but have 35 to go through . Thank you so much , also found a box full of stamps, great time for me to learn both and hopefully turn my unit into profit🤞 . I'm all in at 250 on the unit
Why did you throw away 15 boxes of paperbacks?
Do your research on the stamps my friend , they go way under looked , there are many valuable stamps out there and people have no idea , I bought a big book at auction for $17 and took it to a guy who moves them for you and he showed me the value of each stamp and one of the stamps was worth $300 , well to do the research , Good luck , Dave at 55.
I bought a storage unit and counted 28 boxes in the pictures when I got the unit it was over 70 boxes ,I'm a 1 man operation with a minivan and was rushing to not lose my deposit and my rights to purchase another unit , and being rushed and alone had to dump a load to rush for the next one with my garage already being full .
Thank you dave w. truly appreciate your words ,I put them away once I'm done with sorting the books and board games gonna look further into them since they take up less space , not many old stamps though but have a couple books of stamps from all over the world from 1930s to 1960s . Learning how much value are in the old board games as well ,Avalon Hill board games from the 70s and 80s have some selling over $100 .
Don't keep anything. Throw away everything!!
Books were the first Items I collected. Sold an immense collection When I first got married. I Have replaced most of them. I always liked hitting the paperback section at the yearly Book Fair in St Louis. I've reduced the paperbacks I sell due to thrift store pricing, But I still love finding books. that others are wanting.
I've had two sets of the Tolkien ace books. Sold the lesser of the two. I also have a very nice copy of the Ace Double Junkie which is worth about 1000
That was the first paperback I ever bought.Unfortunately, it was in poor condition when I bought it for $.50. I sold it on Ebay for $50 years later. Narcotic Agent was the other side.
The books of James Hadley Chase on Corgi and Panther are very desirable. And gripping reading too.
Take a look at "To Drop A Dime" in hardback or paperback, worth a lot!!
Love it. Fabulous..Many cheerio's....👍👍👍
Saw the Creature when I was little!
I wanted to see if Iceberg slim would come up, I have a lot of his books, you get my respect !
🤔...I'd like to have some of these books📚for my own personal collection...🤘🏼 Definitely gonna keep my eyes open and do more searching for books...👌🏼💯✔
I've got your "extra Bonus" right here. All three in perfect condition. They'll still be here for a few decades..
Thanks for sharing Don. I have 10 of the Ian Fleming Bond Pan books, but sadly in the UK they don’t hit those prices.
My best friends brother had the full set of the Bond books!
Hi thanks for featuring my book sale on youtube I statrted watching your video and the first book you show is a copy of Rage that I sold. I finally made it on youtube. Well sort of
I am, listening too,the Beatles..paper back ✍writer..thank ,you..
Keep an eye out for the Parker paperback novels written by Donald Westlake writing as Richard Stark. Big money when you find them.
The yellow cover edition of RAGE was the first edition in the UK; you’ll notice the imprint is New English Library and the cover price is in pounds sterling. I have it in mint condition; mail ordered it from the British NEL catalog while it was still in print because I knew “Bachman” was King (this info was leaked some years before King claims it was) but had not come across the US edition in any bookstore. (I had found what were then “the other three” of that first quartet.)
The Vornholt computer game book, and his name is pronounced VORN-(rhymes with morn and corn)-holt (rhymes with bolt), was not published by Penguin, but by Boulevard, which was the media tie-in imprint of Ace/Berkley.
I have a copy of Neuromancer. It was the book that got me into reading scifi as a kid.
I know it's Goosebumps
2nd comment: can you perhaps do a video on the pre internet research, related to price tracking and data regarding the collectibles market was researched (demand, prices, scarcity)? I hope you know what I'm asking, thanks!!
Now I gotta dig up that dune book out of my stuff.
The 2nd version of rage that you mention is actually the UK 1st edition
There was a genre of paperbacks referred to as "Crotch Novels". They were sold in "dirty book stores". Not sure if there is any market for them, but please do a video on it if you can!
Nice selections... No Killer Angles on this list?
Love this video, I even think I have one!
But dude - Roman is German for "Novel". The title of the book isn't Marion Roman. Just Marion.
When they rebooted the Trixie Belden series in the 80s, the later books-35-39 where only in print for around a year. They aren't worth nearly as much as some of the ones mentioned in the video but in excellent condition, some of them could fetch in the low three figures.
Hes bringing Paperback....!
I was a bookstore manager for 3 years and we have alot of these books in there have over million books it is closed but I know the new owners
Halloween movie tie in by Curtis Richards is another one. Hard to find a non beat up copy for less than $600.
I have a copy of the secret which was bought in a local book store for 0.25 in the 90s
I think the Baum book is simply "Marion" and "roman" means the type of book (novel).
I just found a dune encyclopedia for $.50 at Goodwill… Thanks for the heads up
I have a copy of this one somewhere; can't find it at the moment and am hoping I didn't accidentally donate it to the thrift store when I had a sort-out due to moving. Be just my luck! LOL.
I have a first printing paperback of The Graduate with a painted cover. I have NEVER seen one of these listed anywhere, so I don't have a clue as to the value. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
10:46 Do you remember why especially this pocket book issue carries that value? I am from Germany and found two of them.
They are worth 3$. In the video - thats a ask price.... lol
@muskel-adolf8582 Sorry but all prices shown in ALL of our videos are SOLD prices as that is ALL we show.
There was another classic book called.." The Creature Who Shagged Me".. yes it was a very painful experience! Umm ..to read that is👍😉🇨🇦
Just found first us edition of Live and Let Die in hardcover
DAW was my favorite publisher for science fiction. love their cheesy cover art.
Don there were actually 3 movies... The creature From the Black Lagoon, Revenge of the Creature, and The Creature Walks Among Us. It was always my favorite monster when I was young, and I have all the movies. :)
Ill placed thrift store stickers on the spine/cover are my peeve
Were is best place to list books ebay or Amazon need info
I have the iceberg slim PIMP BOOK LOL
Thank you for all your info. I see 500 books at Salv Army and have seen Tolkien before. Now I know what to look for. Any newer children's books to watch for ???
Suess
When is your book coming out ?
I had s cousin who had a collection of 007. They were probably all US editions.
What about Edger Rice Burroughs' "Tarzan of the Apes" ? or ', The Princess of Mars' ? first editions? I had 1912 editions of 'Tarzan of the Apes, 'Tarzan the Invincable', 'Tarzan and the Green Goddess'. What are they worth??
What’s the first ad from?
How do you look up foreign language books?
Love your videos...
but there were three "Creature, Lagoon" movies.
I'm selling on Facebook Marketplace where they allow up to 10 photos. Sometimes I have to choose whether to include more photos of the inside of a book (think illustrations for a children's book) or the copyright page. This mostly happens when I am doing a lot of 2 or more books.
Do you think most buyers would prefer the copyright picture or another picture of the illustrations or a sample of the text inside a book.
Does a signature being auto-signed hurt the value? I have found some 1st Ed 1st print that are auto-signed. Not sure how to price.
Have you heard of Ralph and Terry Kovel? Kovel's price guide? When I started selling I religiously read their price guides until I retired in 2020. Interesting channel you have! Good luck and good fortune my friend!
Found a 1st Edition Dr. Seuss hard bound book that can’t be listed on eBay despite other copies currently for sale. Any other sites it can be listed??
10:47 Vicky Baum - Marion is worth 3$. Its only an ask price!
ALL prices shown are SOLD prices as that is all we ever show.
Every book ive read from steven king written as richard bachman has been fantastic. As crazy as it sounds his books written as richard are more tristed/ sadistic story wise. Still pretty much same writting style just tje stories are more out there. The long walk was the first i read under the other name and it is still one of my favorite of his books
Do u do stamps
Back when eBay started up, the most popular books she sold for $40 easily was Laser books and Mac Bolan. Now they aren't worth much. They actually were well made and covers stay looking fresh.
My friend buys Stephen King books at $400 easily, USED.
I had a bunch of double Ace paperbacks that I liked because a lot of my favorite authors had stories in them I had found nowhere else. My husband threw them away. :(
Hi Auction Professor - is there a website where I can learn about valuable paperbacks? I have been a reseller for about a year now and recently got into selling books. I would hate to think I am undervaluing things I sell and not taking advantage of getting a good price. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
I have lots of westerns
I have plenty
"Marion Roman" lol
Roman = novel in German
This is the easiest sub I’ve ever done. great great work. I really think books are the easiest finds. The fact of life is the elderly have so many that always end up in charity shops and are sold for penny’s. Thanks for this information
My new most valuable paperback is The Killer Inside Me , Lion publication. Fine condition. Worth 1500.
ACE LOTRings- I bought mine in 1964 when I was a kid and they're tucked away. I'll NEVER sell!
I have a first edition of HELTER SKELTER and I've heard that it's worth some money... Anyone knows?
ok but why was there a commercial for The Deep in there...
I'd take a trash copy of the secret if I could get it!
:D It’s not "Marion Roman" - Roman means novel in german… So it's just "Marion" :)
Nice work 8
