buy what you like if the comic has a clean cover thats when i'll get it if anything it can be framed and hung on the wall


1) Agree - buy what you like to read.

2) Buy only what you can afford (after you paid all your other bills..)

3) Buy complete comics - no rips, tears, missing pieces.

4) Suggest starting at a reputable local comic shop - usually folks are friendly and knowledgeable. Usually shops are interested in repeat customers - not one time sales.

5) Use CPG (and other guides / retail sites) to check values so you don't over pay.]]> Mon, 28 Jan 2019 12:46:30 GMT https://www.comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=12975 Message from Ronbatman
Buy what you like
Find an artist that you like and collect some of his or her issues
Buy a certain style like Action #1 Homage covers
Buy a Title that you enjoy like Luke Cage
Buy cover that show your favorite character like Gambit or Storm

After a while you'll figure out what kind of art or collection you want to have.

I am just started getting into collecting graded comics. I just happen to come across one a few weeks ago very cheap and it peaked my interest. What are some tips to getting started.

Thank you for any input.]]> Fri, 25 Jan 2019 22:22:02 GMT
