Tumbling Back Home

The bits of Internet goodness that get stuck in my teeth.

Full blog over here.

I sold my collection to a local comic book store/chain called Coliseum of Comics. They have six stores in town, so they’re big enough to buy collections. But there isn’t much money to be made in what I had (mid-90’s thru mid-2000’s).
Their buyer basically said to me, “You have 40 books I can use. I’ll give you $150 for those. The other 2,000 are nickels, so I’ll give you $250 for everything.”
I consider it a great kindness that he was willing to pay me anything for them (do you know how many CrossGen books I had?!?!), so I took it in a heartbeat.
I’d suggest calling around to your local shops and asking if they buy collections. Maybe even go to a comic book convention and talk to the guys selling there and see if they buy. Here’s a list of conventions, by state. Good luck! View high resolution
