Finding Another Comic Book Collection in the Wild

Finally a good collection!
I go through a couple long boxes before pulling the trigger on this one. I discuss some keys and decide which books will be going to CGC for grading.

[@big_burly_bro]

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.

[@ossieshepherd1998]

[@gameshalo3907]

I'm kinda jealous... great collection 👍🤯

[@luke-space]

3:20 That ant-man hip hop cover has heated up recently

[@austintyler7901]

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.

[@theofarrugia2177]

What a great collection ! Really want to see the result when it'll come back to CGC !!!

[@IAmWIll1408]

Great find. Still hoping to find one like this in the wild for myself

[@bigbabysld]

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

[@rushdiehard8784]

Fantastic books. Congrats. I was worried for a second that you missed teen titans 12 and superman 199. Great stuff

[@robertsalazar6290]

Flipping through those boxes, I felt like I was right there with you. DAMN!

[@IxneTheHombre]

Robust Batman Feast! This guy had the right idea!!!

[@rcamacho66]

Great finds! The beginning of a streak hopefully.

[@MrSk8wiz]

VERY excited for you VERY GARY!! :):)

[@tonyscomics1827]

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 😎

[@truexfan001]

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.

[@paul-norsemgr9263]

Nice pickups Gary. Now you have more books to sort into your $2 boxes.

[@jeanmalo7173]

Glad you found the Riddler....keep it comics!

[@tacomacomics7946]

Great collection. Secret Secret Wars 2 variant is first cover appearance of Gwenpool. Not sure if it's also first Lady Deadpool.

[@AR_Comics]

Awesome video Gary!

[@PressableDefects]

Great find...theres some great minor keys in there

[@godisgreat8462]

Hello hello another awesome video

[@isaacmaynard7166]

[@bxboxer1231]

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

[@tanchrissis3180]

Great unboxing!!!

[@amead78]

Great finds!

[@MrGretzky9966]

What a dope to get there. All those Batman books rock

[@BarryPilkinton]

Could you make a video on how you go about coming up with a fair price when you purchase a collection ?

[@VeryGaryComics]

Yes. Good idea.

[@sirpuss5887]

Great job!

[@mikeekim820]

awesome pickups!

[@Jungle-Boogie]

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!

[@nickshep1111]

Great collection!

[@execcollects]

Nice man another great pick up! Great to see you in there last night!

[@VeryGaryComics]

Thanks man. I feel like when people see me bidding on stuff they jump in and bid. Haha. I'll never win anything

[@execcollects]

@@VeryGaryComics hahaha yeah they know if you are in there it must be legit!

[@monsterwarrior3551]

Nice collection!

[@fumador74]

nice score.... great comics

[@rftaitague]

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

[@bryangordon5775]

Yeah awesome vids man, any way you can tell us how much you buy the collections for?

[@bigmikescomicsandtoys762]

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

[@unhhgcrxexhjvuvujchcrzwzwz7956]

3:21 that’s so weird, for some reason I own that Sabrina comic

[@luedanger561]

When you buy blind it's usually 10 cents a book

[@lennyserna2904]

You're the man!!

[@AnthonyOldhandGarcia]

Cool find in the wild.

[@lrdmiddlefinger]

I'm currently in the process of moving my old singles collection. Need to get on that omnibus hype! Haha

[@baki4441]

very nice D.its just me i thought i saw the walking dead 1 cover reprint?

[@raiderbear1]

Damn that was a nice collection I love the verity

[@kidoliva]

Nice collection! I would love to see how you make money doing this.

[@DoctorDoom69]

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 🔥

[@ernestoglesby5342]

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.

[@anthonyshortbox5498]

nice come up! 👍🏼

[@houseofelcomics3050]

Great show

[@davidboyer3803]

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

[@mattronimus]

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 KZbin just look it up I started months ago and it works great... Practice on garbage books 1st.

[@nau97]

nice collection!

[@brett5569]

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.

[@VeryGaryComics]

Check the graders notes. Maybe all of the defects can be fixed with a press. Then it would be worth it

[@ericwilliams1845]

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.

[@VeryGaryComics]

Maybe someday I'll do a classic covers video

[@Pewsplosions]

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 KZbin 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. :)

[@VeryGaryComics]

Thank you

[@GodLovesComics]

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.

[@unhhgcrxexhjvuvujchcrzwzwz7956]

I legit always feel the same way about old X-men stuff, those books are my thing

[@theslabbedssaddict691]

Know you don't like these longer vids, but they are great and wish you would do more!

[@tyrannicaltypomichaeltester]

Crazy collection. I do believe That Thor was origin of Galactus..

[@collecto6228]

More boxes for the Garage...!!

[@tudes4tuesday761]

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

[@tanchrissis3180]

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!

[@potishen]

Nice collection

[@ljg72552]

Great videos. Have you done one where you show how to press and clean your books?

[@VeryGaryComics]

Not yet

[@tonydcollects]

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. :)

[@josephraso6706]

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.

[@jamesmoss3424]

Good video also I got x-men #1 1991 and batman #500.😀👍

[@deepdivecomics]

I helped a guy put a sofa in a van once. Long story, didn't go as planned. Anyway, Matt Foley had a decent collection!!

[@nope5023]

ASM #252 stands alone as the first black suit, Marvel Team Up 141 came out the same day as Spectacular #90 2 weeks later

[@Johnny-dz6vl]

Can you please show how pressing comics is done in one of your videos :-)

[@theonepugonepug4707]

If you paid couple hundred bucks that is one heck of a find.

[@tyrannicaltypomichaeltester]

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

[@_C_Squared_]

Those new avengers are gunna be hot, just you watch

[@gageromero8925]

the cates venom run went up to 10. thats a variant of the 10, i only know cause i have that book lol

[@jihochung705]

damn, that Venom #3 value.

[@tommymitchell4305]

Awesome

[@louisboyle8906]

The deadpool secret wars variant is the first appearance of gwen pool not lady deadpool. I think that's a different character. Thought it was worth mentioning. Congrats on that collection. Probably the best you've found in a while. Mixes of different eras is always best.

[@Ready4Wednesday]

This collection had to cost so much
