When I lived in New Orleans, MJ variants were almost unavoidable. I lived one block from Jackson barracks, and about a mile from a coastguard installation on the Mississippi river. Besides news stands and pharmacies, almost every used book store, and corner grocery, bought and sold comics.

Love your set up. Great books. I was at a small con today and almost picked up a raw copy of Batman #227 classic Neil Adams cover. It was a great price and as my card was to getting ready to get charged I ask to look at the book again and noticed a large amount of color touch that didn’t notice earlier. The owner claims he didn’t noticed it but I dodged a bullet there.

Wow good eye! Thats on my grail list. Great book

I was fortunate enough to attend. I picked up some books from those guys. What are your thoughts on page quality. Most of the books looked high grade but pages were tan.

The page quality of the books overall was really good!

You're there to sell....sure, run around BEFORE the show opens (If you ARE setup AND ready to go).....but remember WHY you are there....TO SELL. Hunt around in the mornings before the show starts...but focus on making money and selling.

@paperchasecomics Ай бұрын

So my perspective is this… im there to make money and…have fun. If my booth is a ghost town because some other booth is selling books at %20 of market value… im calling the audible. Literally more money to be made buying off another seller who doesnt care. You cant sell to AIR.

@donaldvonglitchenberger4108 2 ай бұрын

so this dealer is obviously selling color touched books and fine with selling them to not only unsuspecting customers but to other dealers as well . That’s fukked up man

@paperchasecomics 2 ай бұрын

Well in short, yes, but I dont think they realize the view of color touch and restoration by the comic community IF they are aware of it. Their prices are so low most people may not even care… however transparency to their buyers would be nice, absolutely. These guys are literally out of the loop to what they have.

@Rorschachqp Ай бұрын

I really really don’t like your set up for showing comics. The way you hold the books makes me wince and it looks like you don’t have good control so you constantly bring the comics too far forward, don’t hold it long enough once you have the right distance and focus, and of course confusing left and right. Maybe have like a rack hidden just below camera view that holds the book at the perfect length and angle so you don’t get reflection.
