Not experienced in comic marketplace. Help me not get ripped off here. Had these for a while time for them to find a home

id first give better photos of each comic so experienced people can give a rough estimate on grade which helps with value. though that tales of suspense despite being a huge key would have a very low grade due to missing part of cover

@MikeyLee26 What exactly is it that you are asking for?

ok great advice. I have no expectations of value or grading. will a front and back pic in good light be sufficient? and it's a shame on the TOS because all other aspects are very high quality

ST 108 maybe a 7.5 beautiful $400-$600
TTA 42 maybe a 4.5-5.0 $300
Action 342 maybe a 5.5-6.0 $60
SPJO 37 maybe 4.0 $30
TOS 39 maybe 1.5-2.0 what a shame looks like a box cutter was used.... approximately $3,000-$4,000 if no restoration I don't like the look of the tear or weird color break above the S to top of cover....

These are simply approximations especially the values.... market has cooled lately.

I would get the Strange Tales, TOS and TTA graded but not the action or the Jimmy Olsen.They will all find a good home and you will make a little money:-)

Iā€™d recommend getting the Tales of Suspense 39 graded before selling.

Even at 1.0, you would make more selling it graded.

The others you could sell ungraded.

I was never into comic book collecting. I've always enjoyed the stories and characters. In the process of getting knowledge of these few I got, I've learned what an incredible community this is Y'all are some really great people seriously. Before the movies came out i was a big IronMan fan so having his first appearance is pretty cool. But they should be with a real fan.

ST 108 $480
TTA 42 $300
Action $60
SPJO 37 $30
TOS 39 $4,000

$4870 for all is my guess
I hope you got more of course
I would have put these at auction. But if you feel you got a good price and feel happy that's what counts. šŸ‘

Shame about TOS.. according to Overstreet best it would grade is a 1 if everything else was perfect. My guess is probably a .5. Something in the 1 to 2 thousand range. Other posters are right in my opinion get it graded sell the others raw.
