  • This is one trade that I think is going to be great for the shop, and the personal collection! I traded ONE big boy book (Daredevil #1) and received 250 smaller DC silver age keys!

    Wowza! I suppose the goal is to sell these, so on that front if you can turn the DD1 into 20% more value (without throwing your back out selling all these in the process) than more power to you!Personally, I prefer a horse over many ponies but thats just because selling is such a chore for me. I’m sure you have WAY more selling resources and experience making the process easier. The important thing is that YOU are happy with the deal, regardless of what anyone else may think. I’m happy for you, my man 🤘🏻

    Nice collection of DC's. I have many of these in my own collection of raw DC books which I purchased at the corner variety stores when I was a kid and at that time it was definitely not cool to collect comics. Mine are primarily from the years 1966-1971, 12 and 15 cents.

    If you are happy then that’s all that matters! However I have a feeling the trader was real savvy. He knew exactly what he traded value wise. Superman’s/Legion/Actions are hard sellers, even silvers. They just sit. Unloading piles of those taking up space for a huge grail ,and sought after one at that, is a no brainer for me.

    You’re really in my wheelhouse here. In the past month, I’ve ordered a lot of Silver Age Superman, Action, Adventure and Superboy from Lone Star online and picked up several of the comics you showed off and a few months ago, did the same with The Flash. Still buy new stuff but I’ve really loved Silver Age DCs since being a kid in the 70s when you’d frequently find those books at flea markets and garage sales for next to nothing.

    I have to admit I’ve got a real soft spot for the early yellow DAREDEVIL due to it being such a fleeting concept and especially fascinating to those of us kids in the late 60’s where it was just so…weird…to see. I remember a video you did about your Marvel Wall Of Fame with classic Silver issues hanging up. Did this copy of DD come off of that? I’m kind of mixed on this transaction, but without doubt those vintage DCs are ignited. I can’t honestly say I wouldn’t have made the same deal.

    @charliedogg7683 Рік тому

    Nicely done James, a sensible and worthwhile swap considering that you're much more a DC guy and, as you say, selling a lot of cheaper comics is much easier than selling one very expensive key. Super-pets: I can cope with Krypto and Streaky but Beppo and Comet were a step too far. Still, I'll acknowledge that this was a whacky era within the Silver Age. Great gallery of covers - Nick Cardy and Neal Adams were certainly the go-to guys for covers for a period in the late Silver Age and early Bronze. Love seeing all those 10 cent books, a great video.

    No DOUBT that you definitely got the "Volume" out of the trade but the "Value" is still in that epic "Daredevil 1" graded. Knowing how you operate, you'll probably get 20% of these newly acquired gems graded, triple the value and prove this theory to be wrong 🍻💰💰💰

    All in all, as far as re-selling goes, I think you'll have much better luck getting your money out of the books you traded for. Daredevil #1 is a heckuva book, but in it's condition, high grade collectors aren't going to be that interested, and it's kind of priced out of the range of the low grade ones. These books are pretty nice for the most part and DC sells better than a lot of UA-camrs might think. You made a pretty solid deal, especially considering the DC movies plans for the next few years.
