Is it worth my while to actually go to 3 different sites to look up the going value for comics that I have posted for sale? Its so much easier to just press one button and put pre determined values on everything. I sell hot wheels and matchbox cars, trading cards and other collectibles and it seems all I do is research research and research some more on values. Its kinda nice to have it set. My gut tells me to research them. I just want to know if I am foolish for going on automatic. I sound like I rookie. This is the first time selling comics but I had been collecting for over 30 years then someone stole my whole collection I have been kicking rocks ever since that. I just cant get over it! GRRRR. So what I have left are just the ones I forgot about in my closet. It pains me to even think about my collection. I hope they are being taken care of. Yea right. hehe Being taken care of at the nearest place to sell them. Well anyhow thats me and where I am coming from its nice to be here and thanks for having me here!

Quote a string of bad luck. I wish you have a more blessed path in the future.


For more expensive comics I check Overstreet prices, one another guide site and a big online retailer. (Message me if you need the details). There is some difference of opinion on comics from the 1960's and 1970's - usually in mid to lower grades. Different Guides use different formulas and can arrive at slightly different prices. I find eBay is a poor indicator because of the "free" listing - you can list what ever you want for what ever price you want - too much stuff there that never sells. Big stores with employees doing nothing all day seem to do this simply for the free advertisement value. Just IMHO. KDS
