    his advice is nonsense. A local comic shop is the worst place to buy comics, unless they have good fifty cent bins. Most of the new stuff they sell at cover will never be worth nothing. Also, his assertion that comic shops will buy back comics is laughable. Even if you have silver age high grade marvel and DCs in great issues, they will just tell you they are not interested and not even make an offer. They will only buy the best "keys" at a tenth of what it is worth, and tell you to toss the rest as useless fillers. A lot of comic shops are closing down lately. HIP auctions is the best place to buy. Ebay has too high shipping costs but not bad for cheap slabs.

      I wouldn't call it nonsense, but I'll say this: My advice is geared more for people who are collecting for reading/enjoyment, rather than collecting for financial gain. I don't claim to know which underrated books are going to spike in value one day, and I certainly don't have a ton of slabs in my collection. If you're looking for that type of content, I'd recommend Regie Collects, Gem Mint Collectibles or ComicTom 101.

I have several newsstands I bought off the spinner rack just after the magazine guy filled the comics and magazines at 7-11's and local grocery stores that came back from cgc in 9.8. ASM 252 (2), 361, X-Men 266, Batman 428, NM 26, 98 off the top of my head. Nice books.

    Very good video. The only bad thing about pull lists is that you better be specific, right? If you just say Spider-Man, Batman, and Star Wars that is going to include a lot of comics. Each of those characters/Topics could have many different series and that could add up to big money in a month. I know I miss the comic book stores that have bins of back issues, some boxes at $0.50, $1, $2, etc. I know my local comic book store is about 50 miles away. I remember in the 80s and 90s there were places like East Coast Comics and Mile High Comics. They were great when they had sales.

I go there a few times a week to see what's new and they have a section for discounted trade paperbacks as well, I've gotten a bunch of TPBS relatively cheap! I also go to thrift stores too to go comic book hunting and I found a lot of great stuff at my local savers and goodwill, among other thrift stores.

    b. be nice on the phone, i always call and the dude and he is like ''come here we will see at the store'' broooo thats why im calling if you dont have the thing i want i will go to another shop, this loyalty bullshit to comic shops is dumb, im loyal to comics not comic shops, i called this one guy before he was like ''bro bro im busy come to the store'' and i have sworn to never shop from that guy because its a borderline scum, i was like yeah this other store has it two dollars cheaper and he was like ''well thats gas money since you came here buy it'' i hate that guy
