I posted a finders-keepers a few weeks back. Took a gamble on a box of comics at a flea market-yard sale commune type place.

Spent $20 got roughly 176 mint condition comics all mint..most in sleeves. Years range from '89-'92. Marvel, DC, etc

I dont know shit all about comics, i DO know that anytime i can ge 176 comics for that price ill turn a profit.

Rather then auction them on the bay blindly.. i decided to ask the only collection community iI know. I know alot of you collect other things besides nintendo.

Im hoping one of you know comics. I trust this community, would rather get it appraised/ sell to you guys then a random comic shop.

Can anyone here help me appraise these if iI were to list them?

    Did you have a list of issues, I could easily pick out anything of value.

    ^ same! If you have a list, I could tell you what's valuable and what isn't... it really depends on what issues you have!

    yea, sadly unless its a key issue, rolling into the late 80's is when comics starting resembling what we have today.  Most of them are very hard to sell unless you have a long run of a specific series.  That how I had to sell alot of mine.

    Speculative collectors really ruined the hobby with comics. In any case, I'd browse Newkadia.com. They go by current value and the site is easy to navigate.
