My lady friend Jackie's son, Michael... now 19 years old and getting ready to go off to college, asked me to see if I could sell his his comic book collection...
I have a friend in St. Louis who is a used comic book dealer, but he's a little wound up and, even though he's a friend, would probably only quote me what he would pay for them... his wholesale... I'd like to get the best price possible beins it's for a kid going off to school... he's going to squander the money any way... but I'm trying to do the best I can for him, at his request...
There are several plastic boxes full of the comic books...
Since Michael's 19, they were all purchased within the last 15 years probably... may not be a lot of value there, I don't know...
I see people going on Pawn Stars all the time and being disappointed with the final offered price from Rick, but I completely understand those guys have to make a profit... and I'm often amazed at the dummies that don't realize they're in a Pawn shop... they're enevr going to give YOU their potential profit...
If you're a comic book collector and have any interest or useful knowledge, I would greatly appreciate it...
I realize I'm going to have to pull the comic books out and make a list of what they are, etc., so people know what we're dealing with here...
I'm comic book 'dumb' and that is why I'm looking for advice...
