Great deal. The Phe. area must be a comic hotbed. SP, you get some crazy deals.

Dude, I think you really need to start your own website to sell comics with the inventory you are accumulating. Just my 2 cents.

its on the list me and a friend are working towards that goal we have huge collections of stuff we have chased down this month and want to get a site up late this year, right now though swap meets and local sales have done very well for us i get rid of 500 - 100 commons every time at 50c each

he stuff i have seen (and we have around 30 long to sort each yet)

x men 1968 issues 2 22 30 and 49 (2 is pending for 300 for sale )

full runs of wolverine (at least 2 )
a insane amount of jim lee xmen 1 - 30 ish around 10 of each issue and 50 of 1
spiderman in the teens (gone soon as well)
batman 608 -619 4 sets so far (these sell relly quick 608 and 612 has flew for 15 each and the rest have been 3 each and will be gone next week

spiderman 297 -303 at least 2 of each
invincable 1 (PC ) my 3 ed copy
new muntints 1 - where ever it ended
and God knows what else but its been a amazing month in the buying world and way cheeped then normal 20 bucks a long box is high at what im paying right now

We are working on a 60 longbox deal right now that will take a few weeks to hash out but now that i have extra cash all the time it is easy to chase down deals and the fact that atomic offers everyone 10 a box is helping us emesely

Not sure how great a deal this was, but I won a complete Shadowman Vol 2 set (1-20) all in NM for 9.99 plus shipping. The seller has a pretty high rating and a 5.0 for item as described. Kind of cool books, and a kind of cool price.

superman-prime · Post by **superman-prime** » Wed Jun 30, 2010 11:38 am

good deal for sure they are not high priced but have a low print run so great grab

I can remember #20 going for $5-$10 on the board. Good deal. Not sure if you have read these yet. The begining is pretty good, the middle gets a bit..... muddled. and #16-20 are better than good.

Maybe you will get lucky and #16 will be the GLOW.

Thanks for the comments, guys. I checked the estimated print-runs here using Greg's guide before bidding, as I often have over the years. Not just the 20, but some of those later issues have low print-runs as well.
