need help from a knowledgeable collector

[kevhur]

Hi , I have a chance to buy a comic collection of almost 8000 comics.
1 of my many questions is, what is the best way to sell these?

for example, i know this collection has Daredevil #1, in lower end condition, but it also has a lot of the run as well.

Do i sell as singles or try to move complete runs?
I have excels list of a lot of the comics for sale, if you want to see it, to offer opinions.

Would i just be better selling key issues, same as hockey cards, sell individually?

if someone is willing to give me a hand, i would be grateful and would be willing to offer a little compensation... i know a lot of time is going to be involved on my end...

I am deciding tonight if i am buying these...

thanks
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
I'm not the experienced collector you looking for. I just pick up random key issues and that's basically it. But from what I have seen, selling individually is usually the way to go. More people trying to complete their runs, rather than buying full sets.
Sounds like a sweet collection though. If you do buy that collection, would love to see what else you have there.
As far as where to sell, good question. Obviously ebay has it's pluses/negatives, maybe check out forums like this one (CGC has a decent forum). I'm on there occasionally and see prices higher (than ebay) and sell.

Anyway, good luck. :beer:
