Best Place for Selling Comics?
 
I have quite a collection of comics from over the years, all of it covered and most of it in mint condition. It's a pain to sell every single one on Ebay though, as I might get bogged down over the shipping and packaging charges.

I was wondering what the best way was to get rid of my comics, but sell them for what they're worth. I have some odds and ends, but a few rarities too (Trial of Venom, heh). Maybe an online place where I can post my entire list and let people pick what they want. Suggestions are welcome.

Also, if you're wondering why I don't keep the comics forever, there are three reasons:

1. A lot of these stories haven't aged well.

2. They take too much space; I'm into graphic novels mostly, for both price and size.

3. I have a photographic memory, and can recall nearly every single page and word. Seriously.

Well like you said, eBay. However sell them in lots instead of just single issues. Help save on shipping. And having to organize a thousand auctions.

Sign up for a comic specific forum. IE/ the Wizard forums and try to sell them through that.

You could try selling to dealers in your area, but you most likely won't get that much for them.

If you are really serious about it, rent out a table at a flea market/small local comic con and sell them that way. Lots of work and it will cost you money upfront though.

Well, acid probably gave you all the answers you need. I heard cons are the way to go, or ask your local comics dealer for assistance.

Well, the problem is I don't have all the complete issues for every arc. For example, I'm one issue short from completing Maximum Carnage. Unless you mean to bundle various comics that may or may not have a connection (ie bundle various Spider-man books).

My closest comics store offered something along the lines of $.50 per book. No thanks.

Already tried something like that; a garage sale. More lookers than buyers, that's for sure.
