Hello CBCS Community!

So, I run an online store on HipComic. Well, more accurately, my fourteen year old son runs the store. He has posted over 2500 comics to our site and I would just like to see him get some traffic. He does a really good job on grading, I personally think he is too strict, but that's good for everyone else. He has done an outstanding job of taking pictures and for almost all of the ones in recent months, he has listed the cover artist to make it easier for the buyer.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Every time I check that site, the prices are way too high. Might give your store a look.

@Mountie73, if your son did half of the work you say he did, he's quite an amazing young man (as I am sure he is). I will check it out.

I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie. flanders private msg quote post Address this user
@Mountie73 I hope you try selling on facebook as well. They're a lot of groups out there that I recently discovered. I haven't tried selling yet due to extreme laziness, but I have bought a few things and I enjoy not paying sales taxes while still having the protection of using goods & services through paypal.

@flanders

This is what I prefer. Having a lot of problems finding sellers who have what I want at the moment. I have met some good guys though. It is nice talking comics via pms every once and a while. Especially when none of my friends collect.

@GAC, I see everything just fine in fact I Just purchased these 3 comics from @Mountie73's store. I normally look for older books but these were a nice pick up. Thank your son for doing a good job with the store @Mountie73!

Oh man am I jealous. My son is about to turn 14 but he doesn't do anything like this. He teases his sister, chases our little dogs and pokes at his mom...not figuratively, but literally with a stick. I think he comes from a faulty gene pool.

@flanders I am on facebook and would love to not have the fees. I just don't see that many people following Facebook posts. Might be something I need to try.

@Mountie73 How much are the Facebook fees? I thought Facebook was free to post things.

@BrianGreensnips No, I'm sorry, I meant I would love to not have the fees that HipComic and Ebay charge. 10% adds up quick!

I just posted these on my shop. Its a 11.5 x 3 bumper sticker that I had made. I thought turned out pretty nice.

If anyone wants one, message me. It's only $5.00 shipped if you get it from me here.

@Mountie73 I get the same as @GAC with only 2 items showing at https://www.hipcomic.com/store/marvelous-comics/?limit=96

However I can see all of @BigRedOne1944 so that's strange.

Congrats to your wee lad btw 👍

Thanks for the input. Maybe another browser? I don't know.

Very cool. I’ll save your site. Going out of town for a couple of months and do not want any comic deliveries while I am gone.
Be warned, when my son was about 14, he started researching the values of the long boxes we had, now he is 30 and owns a comic books and collectibles store.
Do what you love.

@doog That actually what he wants to do! We will see how it pans out in the end.

My son, far left and back, with his Boy Scout Troop tonight retiring US Flags from Federal Service. They cut the blue border stars out, and then each stripe in order. After that they place each piece into a fire until ash. Once cooled they collect the ashes and bury them.

He is fourteen years old and will have his Eagle Scout rank within the next six months.

@Mountie73 @sportshort Hummmmm....I normally use IE so I tried different browsers (Firefox & Opera) and still can only see two listings. Not sure if it’s something to do with me being across the other side of the pond or not which it shouldn’t but its definitely strange.

ps...glad others can see you though 👍

@no1lufcfan , have you tried chrome? just for the fun of it. I admit, i tried different browsers myself and had no trouble so it is weird.
