@KatKomics "Gonna be sick"? I paid a fairly hefty fee when I bought a piece from him at SDCC. Same stomach bug? |

@Batman66 so the buyers fee is 20%...taxes are a fun thing. I'm a cheap SOB and like to play games.... If I get shipped to my home address in Canada then no sales tax...but shipping can get pricey and there would be customs charges (can't remember 6%?) If I ship to the US my shipping is less (usually much much less) but then I pay New York State sales tax 8% and have to bring it across the boarder and may or may not pay my customs charges - additional 6%. On this group of purchases there is no way I will play my ship to US game. 8% New York tax on $1,100 will make shipping to Canada the cheaper option and no way Canada Customs lets me through!! Usually I don't spend this much so even with the 8% New York charge it is cheaper to ship to US and you may not always get pulled over for Canada Customs - about $250 not including shipping and you are 50/50 on getting through ok. All this pales in comparison to the exchange rate f'ing I'm going to get though!!! |

@KatKomics wow that's nuts. I thought it was around 20% plus taxes, just wanted to make sure. Thanks for the info. When you see on go collect the heritage sales are much lower than eBay, comic link and others. I wish the sites would list the total costs associated with the sales. This would keep the gpa more accurate. What we do for the love of comics | ||

I can verify that the sales listed for MCS in GPA all include the buyers premium they charge for consignment books. | ||

I bought a Jimmy Olsen 134 off heritage in September. Paid 576 including buyers premium. The sales tax is not included when you look up the sale in gpa Hope this helps |

I remember buying Jimmy olsen 134 back when it was about the same price as the other Kirby issues...wish I had gotten ten of them. Sometimes the memories come back what you passed on and you go...what in the corn bread hell was I thinking.... Dealer had a shortbox with Hawkman books....issue 4, there were like ten of...I got one for 3.00 …..I miss the late eighties |

@Darkseid_of_town late eighties I use to dream about getting vintage books. In Australia they were hard to come by. I remember when I was in high school my lcs had a full run of New God's in. Being the little brat that I was I didn't want to pay the money for the issue 1. And the other books had to look like my new issues straight from the shelf. So I only bought issues 3,5,7 and 9. They were near mint looking and they were $4 each Aussie. Conversion at the time $2.60 U.S Wish I just bought them all. Even the books that would have graded 7.0-8.0 today ![]() I still haven't put together a full run to this day But I still have those 4 books bought in the late eighties ![]() |
