Lifelong Collector Sells Me EVERY MARVEL COMIC!

[@jeffwilbur]

Thank you all so VERY much for your incredibly kind & supportive sentiments. I can’t even begin to effectively describe the sense of pride I’m feeling - just to be a part of such a wonderful and closely knit community. My heart is overflowing with gratitude. And again, Bry, I ABSOLUTELY made the right decision by selling the collection to you. I’ve never encountered a more worthy ambassador & spokesperson for the hobby. You’re completely genuine, truly empathetic, and your devotion to it all is positively infectious. [Ditto that for young Marcus]. Last but not least, I LOVE the fact that hundreds of folks might now appreciate owning a piece of what constituted my longstanding labor of love, versus it going to just a single individual. Best wishes and lifelong happiness to you all! ❤

[@BrysComics]

This will go down as one of the coolest experiences of my life. Thank you for allowing so many of us to be a part of your journey! 🙏🏻

[@KorribanHideout]

What an incredible collection Jeff, so many years, so many great stories, I’m astonished!

[@VidTubeWatch]

Jeff, I wish you a speedy and full recovery. I am excited and proud to have received the 2001: a Space Odyssey #1 in 9.6 today. I love the COA. I was born in 1972. I grew up listening to my parent's original score 12" vinyl record of the movie. I finally rented the movie when I was 20 years old or so. I have always wanted to own an issue from that series. Especially an issue #1.

[@MikeCherkas]

Mr. Wilbur is my uncle. Thank you guys for giving him and his collection the respect it deserved. And thank you all in the comments for your kind words.

[@jeffwilbur]

I love ya, Mike. ❤ Thanks for your kind words!

[@BrysComics]

It was our absolute pleasure! You have one heck of a cool Uncle…

[@mbrenner1991]

As his proud cousin, I want to thank YOU for being considerate of what separating from the collection could be for him. You are a fine and considerate person and Jeff chose wisely with you.

[@jcramatte]

I love me some Jeff Wilbur. I learned so much working with him. He's a good man.

[@AnthonyLamarca-w4c]

I will put you and your family in my prayers Mr Wilbur. My wife is a cancer nurse of 36 years at city of hope here California. 80% of cancers are treatable. Your stage one so you caught it early which is also a big plus. Get wells soon. Thank you for putting this great collection out to the community through a great guy like Bry.

I am sure it is difficult to part with but Mr. Wilbur sent them off to the right place and a good home. Congratulations Bry and thank you for treating him and his collection with the respect & care they deserve.

[@allonkesselman4067]

This is simply amazing. Thanks for putting this detailed video together. For those of us with large collections, we all face similar challenges when deciding to sell. You made the process look smooth and seamless. Congratulations on acquiring the collection and prayers to Mr. Wilbur for a full recovery.

[@jeffwilbur]

What an awesome and unique Collection. A coming-of-age-Comic-Story in Slabs and Boxes, shared with a great community and now will be spreaded around the world... that makes me sentimental. All the best for Mr. Wilbur, what a nice man. 🤝

[@jeffwilbur]

Thank you so very much! ❤

[@kervjkls]

THIS VIDEO SHOULD BE ONE OF THE MOST TRENDING VIDEOS IN THE COMIC BOOK COMMUNITY... .. . Honestly think this video is going into a lot of spaces in the comics collectibles arena. ... A lot of eyes are going to be on this. Trust me. ... Amazing stuff, Mr Bry. ,,📌👏🏿

[@donaldmiller9648]

It was fun collecting in 1970s and 1980s...at time I didn't buy a lot fresh off newstand but bought collections all over the place and including 38,000 books from a store that shut down. Had probably 95% of silver age Marvel period plus a lot of DC but started a comic shop in late 1980s and also sold off many to local collectors and adding to shop. Core collection started selling off on EBay in late 1990s. Regret moving so much back then but had other activities going on...Wilbur had a good time in building that collection.

[@Voxclamantis]

And wishing Mr. Wilbur better and better health!

[@Hydrus96]

What an INCREDIBLE video and collection. I cam only dream of a collection like this.

[@tylertee]

It's a great story and video. Wishing Mr. Wilbur, the best!

[@littlekoalas6174]

God bless you, and thank you for looking out for this gentleman . Fair price, and now he can use the money for things he will need in the future. We need more honest people like yourself on this world. I'd love to get my hands on some of these books. Let me know when they'll be up on your website. Take care

[@BrysComics]

Thank you for the kind words! New batch being listed later today…

[@kestonsoldschoolcomicbooks6842]

[@LoganLeger]

Great idea on the COA. I think it adds something to the whole experience for everyone. Congrats Bry, huge level up. To Mr Wilbur, you did something so many of us aspire to. What a beautiful collection! Congrats on a lifelong achievement! Now go kick cancer’s butt!

[@jeffwilbur]

Thank you so very much! ❤ It truly can be (and was) a labor of love. Godspeed, my friend!

[@jasonficek8221]

Thank you for all you do for our community! It’s amazing!

Mr. Wilbur has amassed an awesome comic book collection! It's cool to know all the books he took the time to gather and preserve will now bare his name as the original owner of the book through a C.O.A. which will now all go out to collectors around the world to enjoy! Wishing Mr. Wilbur makes a full recovery!

[@BrysComics]

🙏🏻💯

[@DocReasonable]

What's incredible to me is that I also sold off my Silver-Bronze Marvel collection in 1984 for a handful of magic beans. I never managed to rebuild to the extent that Mr Wilbur did, what an effort! All the best for a swift recovery, Jeff.

[@jeffwilbur]

Thank you so very much! ❤

[@frankjuralewicz2687]

[@balloneyblows]

This is awesome 😮. I would love to own any book from this collection. Theres a story behind it and those are always the best books to have.

[@BrysComics]

I totally agree!

[@tonymiles273]

Congrats on this historic moment in your career as a comic book dealer. And congrats to Mr.Wilbur for being able to both amass this one of a kind collection , and for then , in consideration of his family, being willing to let it go to new homes. It has to be bittersweet. Being able to achieve such a lofty goal is nothing short of amazing. Wishing you a full recovery and many good years to come. Thanks so much sharing!

[@GoldGauntletComix]

Prayers up for Mr. Wilbur!!! Thank you Mr. Wilbur for being such a integral part of our comic book collecting their neighborhood here in Florida. We have some great collectors down here and they all preserve the books well. Bry you should consider moving down here. We'd love to have you as a neighbor

[@donaldcleveland5300]

And reality punched me in the face like that. I already felt trepidation as "Mr. WIlbur" was also the name of my beloved and now gone pet cat who I'm convinced- kept me from dying from Covid. And it tears me up that I wasn't able to save his life. And sure enough, Mr. WIlbur's reasoning for parting with his collection now is sobering and underlying sad. I hope he has another 20 years of life in him. I hope he beats this. He deserves to. His family deserves it. I want to buy a couple of books from the Marvel 25 cent November 1971 month just to get the COA's in tribute to him (and my cat, too). I cant believe I'm so sad over this.

[@BrysComics]

You’re a good person and real stories hit real hard. Hang in there my friend and thanks for the heartfelt comment 🙏🏻

[@BZackheim]

This is an epic video. Be well, Mr. Wilbur!

I wish Jeff the best. It saddens me he has to give up his personal goals to fight the big C but also gives me solace in knowing he gave it all to Bry and knows it's in the right hands. Thanks for sharing his story. 🙏

Amazing accomplishment by Mr. Wilbur, and cool that you were able to give him a decent amount of $ for his collection, while still leaving some meat on the bones for yourself. I wish him all the best, and hope he pulls through and gets a chance to enjoy some more comics

[@mandooso1008]

I agree with the seller. I was sad to move on from my 181, GSX and others. But I’m glad I did it with you. You’re a stand up guy. I would sell to you again. Thank you for making it easy and supportive.

[@artesiabulldogs]

Just a casual watcher of your channel, but this was amazing. Loved it. All the best to Mr Wilbur.

[@JimChurchSr-lu2pq]

Now that is one huge collection - First I’d like to say are prayers are with you Mr. Wilbur for a speedy recovery -that collection is massive and will take some time -maybe more mystery boxes with those books instead of Exclusives - and your right that was A lot of work, but now think of all those covers you get to look at -jealous -thanks for sharing Bry and Marcus, nice job kid

[@jeffwilbur]

Thank you so very much! ❤

[@Revtwenty]

long time watcher - appreciate the break down of the costs... Hope Mr Wilbur gets well... cancer sucks. Tampa was an old stomping ground for me, so I bet it was fun! was a bit surprised you were able to offer 60% - with how much work was/is involved in a collection of that size I figured offer could top out at about 50%. hope it all goes well!

[@BrysComics]

Yeah it was a high price but the big picture made sense

[@RJGraye]

Wow. Just wow on this purchase and awesome video journey. And yeah, that FL heat is definitely something. Been in Central FL for SO many years and would love to escape it some day.

[@kennythecomiccollector]

All the best to Mr. Wilber! I’m believing with him and his family for the best possible outcome! 🙏🏾 That’s a really big collection right there. I can only imagine how much effort went into planning, packaging and shipping it! 😳😲
