I've spent way too much money on comic books since getting back into them 5 years ago, so this video is definitely helpful in helping me move toward a self-sustaining approach to the hobby.

[@BrysComics]

It’s all about that balance…

[@stillchillin7249]

Pretty proud of myself. I preordered a first appearance guaranteed 9.8 for really cheap, recently flipped it for funds for a local con. I still own few raw copies of that first appearance. But with the money I made off the slab, I bought another 3-4 first appearances of books that are trending up! I'm learning from watching you and few other KZbin channels!

[@BrysComics]

That’s the name of the game my man!

[@liquidevil9463]

It's so hard to to sell instead of keeping it in the PC.

[@Revtwenty]

Hey fellow Bryan - just wanted to add one way I've been flipping: Buying rough Raw, doing CPR and selling raw. E.g. Getting some TLC to some of the diamonds in the rough and flipping them without having to sub them. It's what helped me kickstart funding the hobby again.

[@BrysComics]

Very nice! Yeah if you can swing it without getting graded it’ll cut down on the turn time for sure

[@Caliber30k]

The first thing I'm doing is separating comics I buy for personal and those for flip/spec and you're exactly right: you have to separate your business mind from your fan mind or you'll go for what you want and not sell anything.

[@BrysComics]

Yup!

[@birdfan2001]

I’m reluctant to submit to CGC due to the long turnaround times- a book could no longer be hot by the time I get it back. I like the idea of buying books that have already been graded and flipping them.

[@zhain0]

That's my issue aswell, I've not done a submission yet but im getting together 25 I think will do well that I no longer want. Oh, and if they come back low, I dont want to loose money lol

[@shaheedali651]

I agree, I only send in golden age books to CGC these days. Older detective comics, Pre code horror never drops in value. But would never send in modern spec books, turnaround time is way too long and value drops.

[@geaux6034]

This is the best KZbin video I’ve seen on selling…and it’s not even close. Thanks.

[@BrysComics]

Awesome! And great last name!

[@anthonytuero3697]

These videos are so helpful for guys like me looking to have the hobby fund itself. Saw that video of the allowable defects which was great! Thanks for these videos!

[@BrysComics]

👍💯

[@TheChinest]

Thanks so much for your info and contest!

[@nathanielmcdonough4288]

Now is the time to send in any Kate Bishop keys!

[@Teardehawkee]

I don't see what is so great about Kate Bishop ?

[@nathanielmcdonough4288]

@@Teardehawkee I'm not saying there is. I'm just saying that some people who really like the character are probably gonna be spending a some money when she comes on Disney+.

[@victorz5821]

Love the breakdown! Always learning something new. Keep up the excellent work!

This is one of my favorite videos from you Bry! A lot of good information, and it helps the entire community, Thank you.

[@BrysComics]

Good luck my friend!

[@lascruces-vh4oe]

Congratulations to the winners! Thanks for the great content and information.

[@rc1473]

Great advice - appreciate you breaking everything down

[@AvanteReacts]

Super informative videos everytime. Thanks Bry.

[@richardtorres5665]

I am getting my books graded from when I was a teenager. CGC may take a long time, but the value gained is worth the wait for me.

[@BrysComics]

Absolutely agree!

[@gabrielfonseca1031]

Learning to clean and press over the pandemic has been a great decision. Being able to CPR a book yourself has helped so much. Just another part of the hobby to love

[@BrysComics]

Game changer!!

[@anthonyroberts8025]

Love your content! Keep it coming!!

[@carlosvale4722]

Great advice on flipping books, mostly selling raw because of the high cgc turnaround time. Can't wait to see your inspecting comics video.

[@WeirdCityComics]

Thanks for all the great info, keep it coming.

[@geeksmarts4980]

Some very nice giveaways and enjoying the content as always Bry, keep it coming!

Thanks for the Info! Much Appreciated!

[@joshgarner5727]

Love the videos and love the live sales!

[@863Vegas]

Awesome tips no matter how little time or money you have to commit to the hobby! Best of luck with the dream!

[@bcomics3135]

This was the most simplistic way of explaining how to sell and trade your book's. Plenty of business terminology and strategies. Awesome video!!!

[@BrysComics]

Thank you!

[@dexteranderson2122]

I just want to say keep up the good job. Thanks to you I started back collecting comics again

[@BrysComics]

🙌👍

[@Fatpan14]

great content as usual my man! ty for helping me train my speculation and grading skills !!

[@johnnyjavy]

Thank you Bry.... You just gave me the boost of confidence I need to try this out for myself.... You Rock!!!!

[@BrysComics]

You can do it!

[@jthomascruz4890]

What a great video, I don't see myself cracking open any slabs just for the risk involved but I do very much like the first three methods of flipping comics. I feel like there are always comics out there that are undervalued that you can either by raw or already slabbed that can be had for low prices especially before one of the streaming networks secures the rights to the stories and then you see the price spikes.

[@BrysComics]

That’s it exactly!

[@djwaters22]

I love that silk comic

[@jasonw9547]

I really enjoyed this episode ! Nice one Bry!

[@pgaal]

As always great video with a lot of good information. I want the hobby to fund itself and this video gave me a lot of food to think about.

[@justinedwards5790]

Legit was just looking through your videos saving some for how to flip correctly. Just got my hands on a big collection of 70s-early 90s comics

[@BrysComics]

Very nice!!

[@justinedwards5790]

@@BrysComics have you every been asked to sell comics for someone like they wanted to make profit off their collection but didn’t know how to do it etc. I’m also in that situation as well right now they don’t want to sell them to me but they want to sell them and make profit off them lol it’s a weird situation. He is a cheap individual Unfortunately but is sitting on some huge books and is too lazy to sell them himself

[@BrysComics]

@@justinedwards5790 yeah situations like that go nowhere…they’re just not ready to sell yet. If they sell them themselves they make the most but have to do the work, if they sell the whole collection to you they gotta take a hit, but you can’t have the best of both worlds lol

[@Keith.74]

Another informative vid.. Great work Bry

GREAT information Bry. You consistently show that you practice what you preach and it is very helpful.

[@BrysComics]

Thank you!

[@danielharper843]

Another awesome video of selling advice. Also…Thank you so much Bry for delivering my “Champions” #1 CGC 9.8 with perfect packing. You’re packing made a difference. USPS is vicious to mail but shipping using a medium priority mail box inside a large priority mail box is fantastic!

[@BrysComics]

100% success rate with that shipping method! Thanks for the support!

[@rubennieves8248]

Awesome job buddy keep up the great work

[@Dirtydingodog]

Great Job! Thanks for sharing the info!

[@kingkalabac]

Excellent info. Definitely the best ways to make a profit.

[@thegatekid]

Thanks for always doing these videos Bry!! I really need to get this hobby to fund itself! I think I am really intrigued by buying raw books and getting them graded, and like many, I am intimidated by the submission process. The fear of failure is too damn high! But maybe you just have to spend some money on mistakes to learn. Til next time!

[@BrysComics]

That’s definitely how I learned 😜

[@BrianLCS]

I flip raw books to help fund my PC. Great video and tips.

Great content as always Bry. I have been a “buy graded/sell graded” hobbyist in the sports card world with pretty good success. Keep living the dream brother. And, when you get that brick and mortar, I’ll be stopping by.✌🏼

[@BrysComics]

Thank you my friend!!

[@azpureplayer7897]

Always looking forward to your videos

[@mrjeffreyb]

Great video! I have been dabbling in the Raw sales, but it’s a lot of work like you mentioned, especially when working full time. I am about to get into slabs soon, so I appreciated the insight on that aspect.

[@BrysComics]

Best of luck to you!

[@EternalNightsCollectibles]

I got my first 3 graded comics back from EGS yesterday. All 3 were signed and came back 9.8s. With their pressing and cleaning and choice modern grading, it took 2 months from mailing them down to them being returned.

[@BrysComics]

👍

[@MrSuperduper5000]

Working on making the hobby pay for itself now. Got lucky and picked up a full set of Stray Dogs 1st print horror covers off the shelf and picked up a few copies of never never. Looking forward to MOM this week as well. Definitely a hustle and I'm about to start grading to set my values on fire!

[@BrysComics]

🙌👍

[@Runnerofall]

I'm specing way further in the future with graded books now. At least they are cheaper now. CGC's turnaround time is absurd right now.

[@kevinprice2058]

Love your passion Bry nice to hear someone who lives their work..I sometime flip books to help pay for my books at my local lcs.."nuff said"

Thanks for sharing Bry -- didn't realize you had been in the game for so long! As I've heard from many -- learn how to grade! I got my Overstreet guide just a few weeks ago and so I'm just starting to dip my foot into some of these methods. If you can clean and press on your own though, that's where the greatest ROI is!
