I'm going to be selling most of my collection over the coming months - about 15,000 raw issues. Feel free to browse it at this link, and let me know if there are things of interest to you.

EDIT: I should have noted, I’m not interested in selling my runs of Batman or Detective at this time - most other stuff is up for discussion though.

Sorry to hear you are selling off your collection, Sean. If you can meet at our usual place, I will pay you cash for the Gotham Adventures #29. And if you still have a copy or two of BA #12, let me know, and we can see if we can come up with a bigger deal. Please PM me when you get a chance.
Thanks and good luck,
Ed

@esaravo thanks Ed - I like to think of it as "focusing" the collection My Batman and Detective runs are plenty safe!

I'm sure we can meet up - I'll PM you, and will mark Gotham Adventures sold.

What do you do with 15000 comics? I don't have room for what I've got which is 1/3rd your collection.

Heh... the truth is when you start to get that many, they start to intrude on your space

I have about 100 short boxes on the shelves in these pictures, and then a whole lot more in various stages of sorting and filing out in my office space. I'll take some current pictures, they're more full now.






EDIT: I'm bad at math... 25 short boxes per shelf, 4 shelves.

HA, I just use some old thick books to put under the ends of short boxes, those are 20 years old. Those speaker stands are actually really useful - I pull a box off the shelf, easily sit it on them, and can put books under one end or the other to tip it up for filing/flipping.

Huh, I wouldn't think those shelves would hold the weight. Is this a room in your home? converted climate controlled garage? Looks like around 3000/shelf?

The shelves hold great - normal wire shelves from Lowe's, with custom liners I cut to make it ideal for the boxes. Those are short boxes, not long boxes, it's probably closer to 600-700 per shelf I would guess... haven't counted.

I've been slowly looking through them myself. The Batman collection (Detective comics and Batman) is insane.

Good question - the book is definitely hot, every time I check it seems like it's moving up. I don't have the book or scans handy, so I'd have to judge by my database, which has it as a 9.0 (my grade, not slabbed). $130 plus shipping would get me to part with it I think.

Edit: this is in reference to my raw copy of Edge of Spider-Verse #2 - I thought that was in the quote above, oops.

Thanks! It's important to note that that link to my collection includes both books in my collection *and* on my want list... my Batman and Detective Comics runs are solid back to the mid to late 60s I think, but if you don't notice the inclusion of the Want List books as well, it looks like they go all the way back to the beginning. Oh, how I wish...

The icons next to the books show the difference, but it's probably easier to change the filter to In Collection:
