Hello,
Having just finished grad school, I moved into a new house and finally had all my childhood belongings shipped out from home, including several hundred Marvel comics (circa 1981-1986). I really don't want them anymore but have absolutely no idea how to go about finding out fair market for them, selling them, etc. The books themselves include complete runs for both Secret Wars series, all of the Amazing Spidermans around the time of the Hobgoblin, a bunch of Marvel Universes, etc. The've been stored in the closet of an air conditioned house (stagger-spined, many in plastic covers) for the last twenty years, but I don't really know the difference between, say, "mint" and "fine". Finally, I really don't have time to post each individual book on e-bay, something already suggested by a couple of friends.
Any advice? Suggestions? Is there a manner in which this is normally done?
Much appreciated,
Pat
