I've had mixed luck. I did okay selling Star Wars stuff before I left PHX, but I also understand that the comic shop doesn't want stock they can't sell. So why SHOULD they give you any money for it? <BR/><BR/>In the future, I'll do it myself.<BR/><BR/>I do think the underlying lesson is that it's sort of a myth to believe your comics or collectibles are going to be worth ANYTHING, especially to people who own shops and play the game every day.The Leaguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04836241071795980225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5256317.post-75730633431759771262007-02-18T20:35:00.000-06:002007-02-18T20:35:00.000-06:00I have a friend up here who spent half a day packi...I have a friend up here who spent half a day packing up all of his memorobilia (14" chain saw massacare figure in the box, that sort of thing) because a local collectible shot told him he'd give him $3,000 for it (as you can imagine, this is a big collection). When he got there the guy tried to give him three HUNDRED dollars. Heh. He still has a mighty fine collection.<BR/><BR/>I struggled with selling all of mine recently, but at the end of the day, I don't have all that many and they aren't worth all that much, so I'm keeping them.Michael Corleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01441107947600810769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5256317.post-48317145662561314312007-02-18T16:50:00.000-06:002007-02-18T16:50:00.000-06:00Well, actually, if you are getting the trades and ...Well, actually, if you are getting the trades and not the ultimate set the League bought, then you will need to get Volumes 1 through 3.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5256317.post-68961796182332621892007-02-18T14:58:00.000-06:002007-02-18T14:58:00.000-06:00Oh, fine.
