Selling Comic books?

Jam400 · 2009-01-27 15:37:06

Hi folks, I recently dug out a load of old comic books my nana brought me home from America years ago. There's a good amount of them and it'd be a shame to throw them out, so could anyone tell me where id be able to sell them onto, if anywhere? Thanks:)

Hi Jam400,

From the charter:

Back issues/old comics: If you have any questions about where to find back issues or what they might be worth, post in this thread. If you have old comics you want to sell, you're best off using the Adverts.ie Books For Sale section. In such cases, a limited amount of posting to make posters aware of the items on sale will be allowed. You may also want to use things like local Freecycle groups or WasteMatchers if you're just getting rid of stuff rather than selling it.

TBH the general impression I've gotten from comic shops is that unless your comics are from the 60s or earlier, they won't be worth much so you're more likely to get decent money from the private collectors market. Even then, it's hard to gauge the likely demand for any given item....
