Advice on selling VH1 comics
I collected comics for a couple of years (1992-1994). At that time I fell in love with Valiant comics expecially the Unity story line. I spent a lot. Admittedly I got caught up in the buying frenzy. Around 93-94 I got sick of the entire comic scene due to overload - too many publishers, too many comics, too many special editions, etc. I put everything in boxes and havent touched them till just recently. I noticed the raw VH1 prices are lower now than when I purchased them (mostly 1993). Thats not a problem. I need advice on how to sell comics but trying to (somewhat) maximize my returns. I'd hate to sell comics individually on ebay - too much time/effort. Should I attempt to slab some of them? I'm not sure what percentage of comics are slabbable if trying for a 9.6 or 9.8; and what is the minimum raw value ($10+?) to make money slabbing/selling. I dont have many copies of the first/key issues.
Here is an example of my bulk purchases:

Hey James
So I do know that someone like Kevin Van Hook who wrote Bloodshot #1 is always looking to buy copies in bulk because he does conventions and likes to have some on hand for fans. If you are willing to sell them in a bulk lot somewhat reasonable I'm sure I can get those moved and maybe others he did on that list you wrote let me get ahold of him see what he says.
