@Beastby1980 I have been buying on livestream YouTube auction nightly. I also sell on Comic Book Poser's Auction Sunday evenings on YouTube. Great community of like minded collectors with great deals to be had.

mycomicshop, CGC boards, here, myslabs.com seems to be a possibility, shortboxed, comiclink, comicconnect.

Lots of places to go. All depends on what you're selling and what kind of fees you do or do not want to pay.

With the new tax laws coming to play next year, there will be less and less dealers on Ebay and less persons using PayPal. One of the livestream auctions (Meta4ickal Komics) started using cyber currency as a form of payment for their auctions.

Along the same lines Doc said,. There's lots of good IG dealers as well. Not a bad place to get in and have them sell some of your stuff for you.

MCS, CBCS forum, CGC forum, Comic Link, once in a blue moon I buy on Atomic Avenue and Comic Collector Live. If I sell, it looks like cash, checks, and money orders are in my future.

IG consigners will do that. So will MCS.

Hipcomic does auctions and regular stores (people) you can buy from which some of them do sell for obo and most of them you can message them if you are interested in something and they'll work with you. Lots of good people on there.

Certifiedcomicshop.com is a great place to buy and consign! He's handled some big books with most trustworthy in transactions for quite awhile. Check out the site for a great mixed selection of books and very reasonable consignment.

It’s another step in phasing out cash payments as well. Once the collectors go to crypto, it’ll become fully regulated and then the government has us buy the balls from all avenues.

Hopefully this law will change, but it won’t as it’s more taxation.

MCS, MCS, MCS, MCS. If that doesn't work for you try Lone Star Comics or Mycomicshop.com.

I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie. flanders private msg quote post Address this user
MCS, but unlike comiclink or comicconnect, they have to have the item(s) in hand. They also have a decreasing commission as the sales price goes up and a flat rate of 8% if sold at auction with a minimum of $5. The payment process is also much simpler and payments are issued weekly. I used comiclink once and they don't even have a record of my transaction or the final payment that was issued to me accessible through my account online. They also may take over 4 weeks to pay you after your item is received by them. I cross list my ebay items on comiclink. Although I'll have to pay the extra shipping cost to comiclink if something sells, I can price it accordingly and I'm charged 10% instead of the 13% or more through ebay. I've yet to try listing on comicconnect, but I believe they charge you 10% plus a 3% premium if the buyer pays by credit card.

Ditto.

But ... if you put things on your want list, be ready to act quickly!!! Some of them sell out in minutes.

Hell, if you put them in your cart you need to move quickly. I've lost items from my cart before I got through checkout.
