I'd message him back and tell him that if he doesn't want it for $83.80, that you will just raise the price tomorrow afternoon. Give him some time to consider.

@Jesse_O

You are much nicer than me. If I notice the book went up because he tried to haggle, I thank them for bringing it to my attention thst it was priced too low and raise it. I don't give them 2nd chances.

Brian K. Vaughan - SAGA
I should grade #1 and #2
but should I hold or sell?

also have 3,5,9,10,11,12,14,18,19,20,23,24,26,27
Don't think any are worthy books though all are 9.8 contenders - should I sell raw or hold?

The comic series is back in the news since they started publishing again but I can't see anywhere if they will make a show from it.

Maybe send all except #1 and #2 to MCS??

I’d Grade 1 & 2 & hold for TV/Movie hype if you’re not a huge fan that simply wants them in your personal collection.

@dfoster43

9.8's of #1 are $700/$800 range, #2's are $150/$200ish??

I got all at cover but was never super into it hence why the issues have gaps

Daredevil 9 and 10 1st Echo. I know the price has dropped a lot for these but do you think it might be good to hold on to them for a bit longer and see if they go back up at all?

I got an offer of $600 for the two of them

Has anyone else seen sales slowing down or is it because I only sell dreck? I've casually tracked my expenses the last couple years but this year is the first time I've made an effort to track my expenses more meticulously. I've only made around a measly $500 through the 1st quarter.

I've only sold a few items and just got the ebay request for social security number. I think I'm tapped in terms of selling for the year. Now if only I could stop buying useless crap....

No rust here... Nearmint67 private msg quote post Address this user
@flanders My 1st quarter sales are down from a smokin' 2021, but still selling.
Gross 1st quarter 1,377.47 Net profit (pre-tax) after all costs 608.00 even.
44% pre-tax profit is better than what my stocks and crypto plays are bringing in.
And definitely better than 00.00 And we get to chat about it here

@Nearmint67 only 20% pre-tax ROI for me for the 1st quarter, but it's better than the 0.5% I'd be getting in a CD and I expect my ROI to increase substantially next quarter since my 72 slabs from CBCS should be for sale at MCS within a month.

Crow (1989 Caliber) 3-2ND CGC 9.2

Second Printing.

Your price: $99.99

Offer: $90.00

Not sure what to do with this. I bought it a few months ago for about $50. It seems reasonable.

@flanders If you are done with it then take the $90 and move on to something else. Maybe wait 24 hours and see if any other offers come in.

I already own Caliber Presents #1. That's good enough for me. I'll wait until tomorrow afternoon then accept if nothing else comes in.

Sales have been slow all year for me picked up slightly over the month I’m assuming due to tax season. The 2 most recent books I sold cgc 9.9 ss romita jr Superman year one and DD 25 larroca variant asp chechetto Cbcs 9.8. I haven’t heard anything new about either so it seems like money to burn to me *shrug

@flanders - Based on the GoCollect sales data for 2nd print below, I might be inclined to take the $90. However, with the 1st print spiking 10% in the last 30 days, and with Skarsgard in the reboot and now FKA Twigs as his girlfriend, you might benefit from holding for a while and raising the price.

@Scifinator thanks. I took a look at the scan and it's an ugly 9.2. I accepted the offer which is more than fair for the true condition of the book.

Decline,include a message stating you just learned the Crow is getting a movie reboot and you made an err9r in the price..raise to $125, best offer removed.

He'll probably buy it, just force the sale.

The Crow is getting a movie reboot, news broke about 2 weeks ago or so.

If he doesn't take it, someone else will and probably fir mote than 125.

The Crow has a big following, the reboot will blow this book up, once a trailer hits ..orveven the next bit of news

IMO, 2nd prints are undervalued...hell, so are 1st prints..
