***** WE COMBINE SHIPPING *****
Please read this entire description, if possible, but at least be sure to check our shipping policy at the end of this description!
LOOOOOOONG description coming! Please read all!
We’ve got another mixed bag for you with this group! Some Bronze Age, some Copper and 1 or 2 Modern! See below for the list and descriptions!
If you can’t find some of these books that means that the one you’re looking at has been relisted and therefore some / most of the books in the list have already been sold (sorry!)! Also, some of these books were tough to photograph because of shadows / glare / reflection of my ceiling fan!
So check the list below (partial, see all of our auctions and check in often) and let’s get started!
We’re going to list 20 or so books (a few from each title) every other night (Sunday, Tuesday & Thursday) for a few weeks! Most of the issues are from my private collection and I have a LOT of them! Others were from my store inventory! And many starting at $.99!

We will be listing a LOT of books over the next few days / weeks / months so check back often! We had a store for 7 years in central Pennsylvania and closed the end of 2023. We still had a fairly large inventory at the time of closing and it’s past time to move them along to you! We’ll be featuring individual issues, limited series sets and story arch sets as well!
Please examine the photos carefully and bid accordingly. Any and all flaws will be highlighted as best we can. If we only supply 3 pics that means there are no issues detected.
That wraps up another every other day listing from us! Keep checking back for more comics in a day or two!
A word on our Buy it Now price: we estimate the grade of each book as best we can but we are NOT grading experts (in spite of once owning a store. When a customer wanted a vintage book we always agreed on the condition FIRST before settling on a price). We then refer to the CovrPrice guide for their fair market value (FMV), then reduce that price by at least 10%, sometimes more.
Be sure to check all of our listings!
Shipping: we ship Ground Advantage in Gemini mailers and, as you might know, we will ship up to 12 books in a mailer (depending on size, pages, etc) to try to keep shipping costs reasonable. We’ll work with you as best we can to combine when possible. Unless you only want & win 1 item, PLEASE wait until all auctions you are interested in to close and we will invoice you with the combined shipping costs. An invoice will be sent for every 12 items you win (we’ll keep track).
Finally, we’ve seen our “shipping rating” drop recently. Please keep in mind a few things:
We ship comics in Gemini Mailers (not some knock off!)! We do buy them in bunk and yet they still cost about $1 each. With that there’s tape (which has been going up in price!), paper (negligible), printer ink (which is RIDICULOUS!) and most importantly, we take great care and time to be sure each package is as secure as we can make it (we commonly include an extra backing board on ‘top’ of the last book before sealing the mailer).
However, if that cost seems unreasonable to you, please let us know prior to payment and we will gladly send you an invoice with a reduced cost for shipping by placing your book between protective cardboard and then mailed in a padded envelope. In addition, if Ground Advantage is not to your liking, we will mail “media mail” by written request (eBay message) but you will be responsible for the additional postage should the USPS determine the comics don’t qualify (they don’t qualify so please keep that mind! We will NOT be responsible!).
