Is it ten Spider-Man comics worth a retail total of $10,000? Or is it 10,000 comics that we would piece out with time & sell each for $1. We’ll show you why you’re being offered, how much cash based on value & how long it will take to sell them.

We know how to turn our money, by keeping thinner margins than most other dealers & have spent over $1,000,000 buying comics & collectibles. We don’t have comic books sitting around; They sell. We only sell old comics-nothing current or new.

3. You Can Capitalize On Major Movie Releases

It seems like there’s a new Netflix series or a new movie based on a comic book coming out every week. Having those characters re-enter the cultural zeitgeist means that they’ll be hot commodities at your local comic shops.

If you’ve got the complete rare collection of all of the Daredevil appearances ever as the new season hits Netflix, your collection will be more welcome to comic buyers You couldn’t sell with this kind of marketing accuracy online.
