After securing a handful of new bin finds, including some neat underground items and a Man-Thing appearance in an early Master of KungFu, I headed to the counter just in time to find a pile of comix being priced and bagged. At a casual glance I could see it would be worth looking thru and asked if I could. The lady behind the counter was a bit perplexed at what she should be setting the prices at and thought that $3 was too high for these old items. I could only agree. She then pointed to a large tub filled with even more 'old items' and asked me if I'd like to go thru them and give her an idea of what to price them.
After pulling aside the tub and settling on the ground these are what I came out with to purchase...
Assorted Marvel, DC, Tower, Star Reach
PC, Kitchen Sink, Eclipse, Atlas & Burleyman.
1960's to 2005.
After reassuring the lady that she would have no trouble selling most of the stock I was more than happy when she offered to sell me my selected for $2 each and more than happy when she said $90 for the lot!
What I didn't pull out, including many 60 and 70's Avengers & Daredevils (already had) plus other Marvel 70's and many assorted Kirby 70's DC and earlier DC space adventure titles, I couldn't really afford to buy duplicates of what I already had (but regret not getting those pre-100 Neal Adam Avengers..), and left them for some other fortunate to stumble across.. anyway I plan to be back next week after a trip to Canberra, to see what has been put out into the bins and what is still left...
