Your comment introduced me to those hip hop variants. Not only do I love the look of then, but I found 3 in my lcs. 2 ants, 1 wolverine. All going for around $50.
I think most of us that are not as experienced in that buying environment would like to know how much we such expect to spend so that we don’t under offer but also so we don’t get burned by paying too much. Thanks
Wow great come up. I assume you got everything? Slabs and all. It would be helpful to let us know what you paid for a collection like that so we who are hunting could learn some tips
So many keys and little keys in this collection. The owner was obviously an avid collector. I almost feel bad for him selling his collection. Hopefully he used the cash to buy more comics!
I would be very interested in how you clean and press the books you find. CGC charges a lot to do it themselves. I have many books that I need this done to so there is a chance to save quite a bit
To clean a book you want a dry cleaning sponge or a good eraser. Very gently wipe in one direction try to stay away from colored areas. Be extremely careful around the edges. To press buy a t-shirt press on Ebay or Amazon..... There are tons of videos about cleaning and pressing on RUclips just look it up I started months ago and it works great... Practice on garbage books 1st.
Nice! I finally bought the whole "Batman: Year One" run to add to my collection. All newsstand copies. Not huge, I know, but still pretty neat for a bat-fan like myself, imo.
Now THIS was a collection worth buying. As soon as I see Silver and Bronze Age X-Men my eyes get a little wider. I'd love to get a copy on Uncanny #100 as the one I bought off a spinner rack is a beater. Avengers 196 is another comic I got for cover price and one small pandemic blessing is there's still time to get it slabbed. Mine is probably a 9.4. I think you want to sell it before the movie, not after. Villain keys rarely continue to rise.
Awesome find! Can you give me some advice. Over a year ago I sent out some books to cgc for the first time. My dumb ass did not get them cleaned or pressed. One of the books was a teen titans 12 and it unfortunately came back a 9.0. What option do you think I could make more money from? Selling the 9.0 slab as it is or cracking the slab open and sell it raw.
Sold my physical collection back in the eighties for £25,000, when I need a house extension for my growing family. Loft and garage filled with physical comics. Worth a lot more but only one realistic bidder. Digital only these days.
Just a heads upon the taskmaster, not going to go up due to what they have done! I won’t spoil movie in comments! Reach out to me if you want to learn more!
That Marvel Super- Heroes 20 is a quadruple key issue , I think it’s going to be big it’s the 1st ever solo doom story , 1st Appearance Of Valeria , First Solo Doom Cover & A Unique Origin Not Told In the FF annual Aswel As It Being A Classic Cover lol , major book haha 🔥
Out of the videos I have seen of yours...That was the best trip into the "wild" I have seen yet, he had a nice run of BATMAN'S there I may have brought for myself
Me and my wife have been buying small collections and lots here in Michigan and it’s tough people post there comics on the fb marketplace or on Craig’s list and then you ask them how much they either don’t have a price or if they do when people inquire about them they say they need to look everything up and still never come back with a price. Or you’ll get the 3k for 500 comics that are all dollar bin comics. My wife and I are more of comic hoarders I’m always building runs only selling duplicates and titles we don’t collect.The east coast must be a lot better for buying. The Midwest is rough. Great collection I’m definitely envious on that whole new 52 runs. :)
it would be nice to know what your paying for these collections i know it's a business but even some type of ball park for us other guys either way nice score
I paid somewhere between $1100-$1200 I think. It was a month ago. I forgot. I've been trying to get that info out there in the videos. I just forgot in this one
You mention a couple of times "I'll clean and press it before sending it out", just curious if you do this yourself. It seems like one of those processes that people are REALLY secretive about.
1st time watching you. But I heard you referring to "cleaning and pressing". It would be great if you could do a video on how to do this. Perhaps you already have. If so, please forgive my ignorance! Excelsior!!
Did you buy any of the slabbed books? I'm curious, what does a collection like this go for? I saw a couple of other books like the Ant-Man Hip Hop variant that are also hot right now.
I've been going back and forth on selling my collection lately. Debts and potentially moving to a tiny apartment in Japan soon... but after organizing the collection and now sucked back into RUclips comic videos, I think I'd rather keep collecting. :D Especially when thinking about how shops and such would probably offer me like 1/20th of the actual worth. :\ I've been kind of binge watching your videos the last couple days. I am not the biggest CGC fan but enjoying the content! Keep it up. :)
Wow awesome find such a great variety of books. keep them coming, we love you gary. Your the best.
Awesome buy. Some very nice keys in there. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome finds in the wild 👍 thanks for sharing the experience..really enjoyed ✌️happy for you to add to the PC.. cheers and stay safe
Awesome comics Gary. Fantastic find. Keep it up !!
A couple old gems scattered in is always appreciated. Nice Werewolf slab.
That Dr. Doom cover is awesome. I'd love a classic cover video.
3:20 That ant-man hip hop cover has heated up recently
Your comment introduced me to those hip hop variants. Not only do I love the look of then, but I found 3 in my lcs. 2 ants, 1 wolverine. All going for around $50.
Beautiful grabs! I can't wait for the day when I buy my first collection!
Great collection. Secret Secret Wars 2 variant is first cover appearance of Gwenpool. Not sure if it's also first Lady Deadpool.
Wow! That collection was chock full of good stuff! That's exciting to see!
That’s an awesome collection. Nice pick-up!
I will second (or thirty third) a video on classic covers only. Which ones do you look for, own, think have room to grow, despise, etc.
Maybe someday I'll do a classic covers video
Congrat's on finding an awesome collection in the wild! Pretty sweet finding the Batman for your PC. Keep up the great content!
Congrats on a great collection! Love the xmen death if Phoenix! And would be glad to take some of that "ugh...Superman" off your hands! lol
Awesome collection and pick up!
The sound of birds flipping through books calms me for some reason
Congrats on picking up the first silver age appearance of the Riddler!
Nice Gary, you just keep on picking these awesome collections. Congrats.
I kinda like this collection better than your best collection found in the wild. Lots of minor keys. Thanks for sharing that, Gary.
Could you make a video on how you go about coming up with a fair price when you purchase a collection ?
Yes. Good idea.
Nice books in that collection. Great find Gary. Thanks for sharing bro.
Cheers,
I think most of us that are not as experienced in that buying environment would like to know how much we such expect to spend so that we don’t under offer but also so we don’t get burned by paying too much. Thanks
Yeah awesome vids man, any way you can tell us how much you buy the collections for?
Wow great come up. I assume you got everything? Slabs and all. It would be helpful to let us know what you paid for a collection like that so we who are hunting could learn some tips
3:21 that’s so weird, for some reason I own that Sabrina comic
When you buy blind it's usually 10 cents a book
Awesome pickup. I need that Walking Dead 19. 👍😁
Nice pickups Gary. Now you have more books to sort into your $2 boxes.
So many great gets. Varied books and fun to see.
You pulled that first Doomsday out and I couldn't help but think, "don't you mean first Doomis?" Haha. Awesome finds!
Superman 199 , the boys 1 and so many other great comics ,very nice 👍
Unreal🙃🤯 Great pick ups. Can't wait to find a collection like this
Great when they put a smile on your face 😊
Great finds! The beginning of a streak hopefully.
Very nice collection! Love that Saga and riddler! Congrats, Gary! 🎉
Nice find can’t wait to see what else was in there
What a great collection ! Really want to see the result when it'll come back to CGC !!!
So many keys and little keys in this collection. The owner was obviously an avid collector. I almost feel bad for him selling his collection. Hopefully he used the cash to buy more comics!
Crazy nuts! Congrats!
Glad you found the Riddler....keep it comics!
I'm kinda jealous... great collection 👍🤯

I legit always feel the same way about old X-men stuff, those books are my thing
YES!! Venom 3 👏👏. Very nice "Pick-Up". Thanks for sharing. In Today's TOP Picks Playlist 👍
Robust Batman Feast! This guy had the right idea!!!
Great books Gary. I'm jealous 😁👍
Can you please show how pressing comics is done in one of your videos :-)
Great find...theres some great minor keys in there
This collection had to cost so much
Hello hello another awesome video
Finally a good collection every single collection you been to so far has been a bust what is collection was awesome good job👍
VERY excited for you VERY GARY!! :):)
Awesome finds! Keep on keepin’ it comics!
Fantastic books. Congrats. I was worried for a second that you missed teen titans 12 and superman 199. Great stuff
Flipping through those boxes, I felt like I was right there with you. DAMN!
Hadn't seen this one but I love the haul Gary and hope to be able to get a collection myself soon and mine is growing... as always keep it comics
Awesome find! Can you give me some advice. Over a year ago I sent out some books to cgc for the first time. My dumb ass did not get them cleaned or pressed. One of the books was a teen titans 12 and it unfortunately came back a 9.0. What option do you think I could make more money from? Selling the 9.0 slab as it is or cracking the slab open and sell it raw.
Check the graders notes. Maybe all of the defects can be fixed with a press. Then it would be worth it
Awesome video Gary!
Great find. Still hoping to find one like this in the wild for myself
glad you finally hit a great collection, congrats on the addition to the pc as well
Man the only thing that can make the day better is some Carvel. You got that luck dude. Congrats on the finds. See you tomorrow at the auction
awesome pickups!
Nice man another great pick up! Great to see you in there last night!
Thanks man. I feel like when people see me bidding on stuff they jump in and bid. Haha. I'll never win anything
@@VeryGaryComics hahaha yeah they know if you are in there it must be legit!
Sold my physical collection back in the eighties for £25,000, when I need a house extension for my growing family. Loft and garage filled with physical comics. Worth a lot more but only one realistic bidder. Digital only these days.
More boxes for the Garage...!!
Nice collection! I would love to see how you make money doing this.
Just a heads upon the taskmaster, not going to go up due to what they have done! I won’t spoil movie in comments! Reach out to me if you want to learn more!
I used to have a first silver age riddler but the cover wasn’t attached. I watched the whole video + all the ads for ya bro! Nice collection man!!!
That Marvel Super- Heroes 20 is a quadruple key issue , I think it’s going to be big it’s the 1st ever solo doom story , 1st Appearance Of Valeria , First Solo Doom Cover & A Unique Origin Not Told In the FF annual Aswel As It Being A Classic Cover lol , major book haha 🔥
Out of the videos I have seen of yours...That was the best trip into the "wild" I have seen yet, he had a nice run of BATMAN'S there I may have brought for myself
Nice books
Crazy collection. I do believe That Thor was origin of Galactus..
What a dope to get there. All those Batman books rock
Cool video! I'm kind of on the fence with minor villain first appearances. Are there any that got hot and stayed hot?
Batman who laughs
ASM #252 stands alone as the first black suit, Marvel Team Up 141 came out the same day as Spectacular #90 2 weeks later
very nice D.its just me i thought i saw the walking dead 1 cover reprint?
Great job!
Bro I’ve been trying to find a collection to buy asking around hopefully I’ll find a collection like this one day this is awesome 😎
I haven't found a collection to buy in a long time. Don't have much room left. Have a pull list, mostly Marvel, at the same LCS for 30+ years
Me and my wife have been buying small collections and lots here in Michigan and it’s tough people post there comics on the fb marketplace or on Craig’s list and then you ask them how much they either don’t have a price or if they do when people inquire about them they say they need to look everything up and still never come back with a price.

same deal here in RI/Mass/Conn. Or they get stuck on the internet/ebay price of a 9.8. When they clearly do not have it that good.
Hip Hop variant at 3:20! If you don't mind me asking, how much would you say you pay on average per long box when buying a collection?
Its different every time depending on what's in there
it would be nice to know what your paying for these collections i know it's a business but even some type of ball park for us other guys either way nice score
I paid somewhere between $1100-$1200 I think. It was a month ago. I forgot. I've been trying to get that info out there in the videos. I just forgot in this one
@@VeryGaryComics thanks Gary for the info very helpful when buying comics in Canada great price for the lot congrats
Very Gary Comics that is a freaking steal for that collection.
Very Gary Comics thanks for sharing that. I was waiting the whole video for that info.
Cool find in the wild.
Xmen 129 - first Kitty Pryde / Shadowcat also
Nice collection!
nice come up! 👍🏼
The comic Gods are fond of you...Most likely (Thor.). He must bestowith many comics upon thee. Nice👍
Fwi do believe that was indeed Galactus's Origin
You mention a couple of times "I'll clean and press it before sending it out", just curious if you do this yourself. It seems like one of those processes that people are REALLY secretive about.
Yes I do it myself. Their are some good videos and books out there if you wanted to learn.
1st time watching you. But I heard you referring to "cleaning and pressing". It would be great if you could do a video on how to do this.
Perhaps you already have. If so, please forgive my ignorance!
Excelsior!!
Alot of good cleaning and pressing content is already out there. I don't think I'd be adding anything
I'm currently in the process of moving my old singles collection. Need to get on that omnibus hype! Haha
How much did he ask for the collection? What was your offer? Thanks for posting.
Great unboxing!!!
Still kicking myself for not bidding enough on that Walking Dead #19!
You're going to need a bigger garage soon.
Those new avengers are gunna be hot, just you watch
Did you buy any of the slabbed books? I'm curious, what does a collection like this go for? I saw a couple of other books like the Ant-Man Hip Hop variant that are also hot right now.
I bought all of it
If you paid couple hundred bucks that is one heck of a find.
I've been going back and forth on selling my collection lately. Debts and potentially moving to a tiny apartment in Japan soon... but after organizing the collection and now sucked back into RUclips comic videos, I think I'd rather keep collecting. :D Especially when thinking about how shops and such would probably offer me like 1/20th of the actual worth. :\
I've been kind of binge watching your videos the last couple days. I am not the biggest CGC fan but enjoying the content! Keep it up. :)
Thank you
Great collection!
You should call these videos The Haul of the Wild a play on Call of the Wild
nice score.... great comics
Great finds!
Great videos. Have you done one where you show how to press and clean your books?
