I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with selling my comics. The only thing I am sure of, is that I want to sell the low-mid priced ones to raise money to have a couple professionally graded and slabbed. I am familiar with Ebay but none of the other venues of sale.

I have this crazy idea in mind, where I have a giant lot sale. I throw in all the comics I'd be happy to see go for a dollar or less....and people pay $20 for 15 comics...including shipping and I stuff them into a flat rate envelope. No Boards, No plastic. Sound plausible? Can you send comic books using the media rate of the USPS?

I have a fair amount of Comics I'd be happy to get $5 for each one. Should I list those separately? If you happen to look at my comic list, please note I have only changed the grade on a couple of comics.

I have a fair amount of comics that might be hard to give away, I am thinking maybe of trying to bundle them up with some more sought after titles somehow to get rid of them.

Any thoughts/suggestions would be very appreciated.

Craigslist.

"Why," my soldiers asked of me, "surrender military advantages to an enemy in the field?" I could not answer.

LCS?  I dont think they'd give you even close to what they might be worth.

Probably not, but if he wants to be rid of them, then he'll take it.
