Well, I'm finally getting rid of all the comics I collected as a kid... on eBay, like all the other "spring cleaners" this time of season.
It's very sad to look through the piles and think of the memories and joy associated with collecting as a kid... and the tears just start flowing. Man, wasn't that the day? I mean, Dad and I would go to the comic store and look through all the new arrivals each week. We'd buy a few and then we'd pick up a Faygo pop and a Nutty Bar and talk about comics and baseball the whole ride home. (If you know what Faygo pop is, good for you: you know the best tasting pop in the world!)
Sigh. The tears. You guys ever go through that?
Now, the shameless plug:
I'm starting out by testing the eBay waters by offering 15 different Image First Issue comics in VF-NrMnt condition individually at No Reserve, $0.01 starting price, and $3 shipping. Not bad right?
PQ me if you're interested
There's some fun ones in there like Spawn, The Maxx, Super Patriot, and The Savage Dragon. It'd make me happy knowing they were going to one of you guys. Also, I'd be wiling to discuss special deals over PQ and set up a custom auction on eBay just for you.

I keep thinking about ditching my comics on eBay, but every time I look, it doesn't seem like anyone is bidding on the ones that are already there.
I would like to be encouraged by your success, so please keep us updated with how it's working out for you.
It's not looking like the market is too hot for MY comics. If ther's a movie about the comic, you might be in business... otherwise, not looking too great. That's just my observations though... i could be completely wrong.
