Seller Falls on Hard Times;
3000 Comic Books For Sale
on craigslist.
Seller says, "My loss = your gain. I need to sell my collection because times are hard. I don't have the time or patience to list individually or in lots on eBay."
So, ok then. Sounds like an opportunity to help somebody out to me. And as, Times Are Hard (even for buyers). Let the negotiations begin.
Seller's Description:
My collection is made up of 2 parts - 1000 books collected because I wanted them and 2000 books bought as a wholesale lot which I originally intended to break up into lots and sell in bulk on eBay.
The 2000 book bulk collection is mostly newer stuff (last 5 years) made up of shelf pulls and is about 1/3 Marvel, 1/3 DC, and 1/3 indies. There are dupes in the bulk collection (up to 5 books in some cases). They are boxed approximately 200 to a box unbagged. The plan with them was to sell 50 at a time for 20-30 bucks per lot on eBay - I see people do this all the time with great success. The 1st person with $400 can take them all (thats 20 cents per book, or about 7% of the cover price). These can easily be marked up to 40-50 cents apiece and moved in lots for a nice payday.
My real collection consists of mostly Marvel books with some DC and indies mixed in. I have too many books to list, but have a good amount of the following: X-Men, Spider Man, Fantastic Four, Thor, New Mutants, etc... There are many more - just ask. All of my books are for sale, so just ask and we can either arrange for a viewing of parts or the entire collection, or ask for particular characters/books and I'll let you know what I have.
Thanks!
