  • Not sure how this should go, but I'm selling my comic books from my collection.

    Most of them I bought in the 80's, read them and then put in plastic sleeves and longboxes where that have been ever since. So pretty much mint condition and if you would like any particular comic scanned I can do that.

    Check out my collection and made an offer. Very Happy

  • This site isn't a true selling site, sure some guys will take a look and may even contact you, but most people do their selling on ebay.

  • I don't think DB intended it to be a selling site when he started it, more of a place for collectors to catalog their collections.
    I know guys have sold book here, just know it's tougher to do so compared to ebay where you have a lot more traffic.

  • But if DB could make a profit off of the sales generated here? I've already whined and complained to DB about this several times. He isn't budging. Crying or Very sad

  • Too many logistics to make it work on a small site like this.
    Also the cost to add all the components to make it work would be huge.

  • There is not enough traffic in general and the cost for me to build out all of the selling tools wouldn't be worth it.

  • I do all my selling here. Works great for me. No Ebay fees.

  • Like I said, some guys do sell here, maybe you should share your secret to your success of doing so with other so you can get strong buying/selling community here.
