Local Collector Has a HUGE House Sale FULL of Key Issue Comic Books!

[@markalbert8135]

I am all for restoring these classic comics. They are important and need to be preserved. I wish more people would accept these as collectables. Tony is an artist in his own right. Awesome video!

[@johnneedhamnz]

I don't collect comics but I watch all your videos and find them really interesting and entertaining. I love all the interactions between dealers and collectors and all the minutiae to do with comics.

[@daviclar867]

I love this guy! He reminds me of a buddy of mine in 7th grade. He had a lot of books given to him from his deseased father. This was in 1977.

[@wylier]

Maybe it's actually him? 😋

[@DocReasonable]

1:49 Rust doesn't occur when there's no oxygen, so locking your rarities up in a safe or vault does not require 'airing them out' now and then. 'Rust is a type of corrosion that occurs on metal surfaces when iron reacts with OXYGEN and water. ' It's even called 'oxidization'. Makes me wonder about everything else the guy says if he's going to claim the opposite of known science is true.

[@bestcore1214]

Correct. I keep some of my big books Ina fire proof safe and I did a lot of research before doing so. The real enemy is humidity. I monitor the humidity level in the safe and I regulate it with dessicant packs. I've been doing this for 5 years. No rust.

[@DocReasonable]

[@JonathanNg4]

I respect this guy when he said, "the lie can't be sold". Great restoration work.

[@squirrel_is_the_new_black]

I watched the video again and I believe the first part was about how he can do restoration so good that grades can't detect it and for people to be educated so they dont get scammed by restored books that may decrease the value, and how his restored books were able to go through grading.

[@chrismaloy]

New fan and follower of Tony. I love your integrity, Tony. You make this community so fun to be a part of, Tony.

[@billyrod1980]

Love this guy’s energy. Amazing books.

[@CardShopReality]

Very interesting insight. Thumbs UP for posting.

[@stephensublett7159]

The fusing of the paper from 2 separate pieces has me blown away. I need to understand this more. Thats crazy!!

[@fidelityheartcult4088]

When a seller brags about sneaking restoration work past CGC... Run!

[@d.jaxxson6227]

Dude talk too dam much!

[@tartuffethespry]

This dude is awesome. So much passion

[@stephensublett7159]

7:30 LOL I love it, he is like some mythical comic book gnome back there "ah yes! I can bring them back to life!! hehehehehehehe!!!" (proceeds to show many high quality keys while smiling and snickering LOL its perfect.

*YOU GOT HUSTLED*

[@toquendo0150]

Wow, a hustler? You could take that two ways. I would be hoping for the one that means I'm a fast worker. But I know that's not what you meant. God bless your comment. I've collected for 36 years. And only sold books three or four times. I just started this garage sale thing. Because I'm not in love with eBay or Instagram. But have been a single book seller on eBay since 2002. But never in mass quantities. Even though I go to Con's on a monthly basis and learn from the best. It might sound like I'm hustling. But I believe my heart is pure. And hope I can give people great deals and build relationships. But not everybody is for everybody. Thank God for diversity

[@mayalunics4740]

I wouldn't buy anything from him, but I'm sure you can learn a lot about restoration from him.

[@SWMartin]

I wouldn’t buy a single thing from this dude - super super Florida shady -Nope no sir

[@perceptionmanagement2116]

💯

[@toquendo0150]

That's funny. Like I said I'm not for everyone . That why I didn't take the job CGC offered me back in 2000-2001 as a grader. I was on to many rave drugs and making 16$ an hour stopping at the office every other Friday dropping off silver age 1#'s from my whopping $ 2000 paychecks and buying books at penny price's. But the market has changed. Too bad ! Hell for $2000 yuh can't even buy a 2.0 hulk 181 today Boo-hoo. ✌️ The way I looked at it was a two hour commute and 12$ an hr. Was a slap in the face let down. So more Orlando rave fun please . Lol. True story

[@d.jaxxson6227]

That’s a MF fact! I know first hand!

[@michaelreney4301]

I am so jealous! I’m a big Daredevil fan also, absolutely amazing pickup. I wish I lived in Florida just so I could go and hang out at these events. Tony was so awesome, I would love to sit down and talk to this guy for an evening.

[@toquendo0150]

I am at tons of cons. If you see Comictom or one of those guys just ask them if they saw me and they will tell you if I am there or where I am. I'll be at Dallas fan expo this weekend. And heroes Convention on the 16th Love to meet you

[@RPRsChannel]

*_Air, Oxygen, is the great destroyer._* *_A non-heated garage is also a great destroyer of books, as well as humid weather; so humidity is also a no-no._* *_The inner Mylar envelope(Biaxially-oriented polyethylene terephthalate) that the comic book is sealed in does not contain air, but nitrogen._* *_This shifts at times, "is there Nitrogen in Mylar envelopes or not?" I can not confirm 100%, sometimes it is not present._* *_Nitrogen does not react with metals. If you fill a barrel of grain with Nitrogen, the Nitrogen sinks and presses out all the air in the barrel. And when you then seal the barrel, the grain will last 20-30 years longer._* *_The staples do not-further-rust even if they have heavy rust on them and even then the process is so much slower that decades of being sealed in a Mylar envelope would only look like a few years of air exposure._* *_If staples are rusted, then they are rusted. You can removes rust from staples, but that process is not easy and you are better off gambling by replacing staples from another book on the book that had rusty staples; but then how will you remove rust from the paper and make this entire scam plausible to pass for a Universal Grade? Well, it takes time, equipment so it's not worth it._* Edit for spelling.

[@cardsfan5100]

So you are taking about Mylar in CGC bricks. What about regular egerber Mylar bags. Any idea how much oxygen gets in there?

[@CruderQuotient1]

This guy is awesome. Wish I could experience digging through a collection like that

Thank you❤

Great collection, really fun to see all the sweet books! Unfortunately, it’s a hard watch because his energy is just so frantic. God bless him and I’m not trying to be mean, it’s just a bit much. Cheers!

Honest opinion, I'm not for everyone. 😁

[@DevilDogComics]

Awesome pick ups and seems like a cool dude to talk shop with

[@KenDeemerVikingKen]

OMG, I need to make a Trip to see this GUY! I'm trying to complete my Journey & Thor Runs! Honestly, this guy reminds me of well ME! I could talk comic books & collecting with this guy for Hours! This is precisely why I started collecting, to begin with.

[@noodle3384]

amazing episode, I've had days like this before. its what makes me collect

[@Revtwenty]

This dude seems cool as hell - I'd do a deal with tony for sure. And yes, covrprice is the king of pricing imo... you still gotta check if the bottom has fallen out of a book, or if the book shares a name with another book, but otherwise they do pretty good.

[@batman0816]

All the Gwen’s !! I want. I wish I lived in Florida

[@anthonythomasexperience]

I like this guy, he is so positive 😊😊

[@Leshil]

Does he tell his customers that buy books if they are ones that he doctored or not? I missed that part.

[@leeniren3706]

Nice video. I just want to know how he fixes those books to look as good as they are, and not be able to detect the restoration.

[@andersonprimer]

The funniest video I've seen on the channel so far. The editing is brilliant lol What a character, dude is running at redline 😂

[@Steve-gl4jr]

Really enjoy your comic book content living where I do in de UK don’t get to see that many cool covers so thanks for a super channel 👊🏻

[@markreamer5113]

Yes, I definitely, with all the key issues, think you got a great deal!

[@LyonsDenMedia]

So basically, even though the guy was upfront about his practices, you have no idea if youre really getting a "great copy" from him?

[@josephbarbera9220]

Wow that’s incredible how he can restore comics. You meet really interesting people! I would not mind buying restored books if done professionally and priced accordingly. I wonder if this guy can remove coffee stains!

[@yungjus1]

This was really fun to watch. I personally like friendly energetic ppl, people who just love comics. This guy has some really great stuff ahaha 😂 but he scares me just a bit 😂 fast talkers ya gotta be careful of lolo that's a New Yorker thing lolo but he really does have key after, key, after key 🔑 😳 those beta ray bill's, the batgirl book, really good stuff. He seems like a real comic book aficionado👌🏾

[@huoron4479]

I would be a bit worried when I see at 1:34 a paper cutter that guy has. Not saying he slices the edges, but it still would worry me seeing it. Seems like a very nice guy.

[@redviperbear]

Really? Cut the book through the middle and now it cant be noticed? I call BS!

[@Tonys-w3i]

Do you have an asm 300 mark jewelers ? I’ve been looking for one for a hot minute

Hell yeah, $500 for all that. You made out for sure.

[@johnnycotrel7413]

I don't know if i'd call him a collector, I'd say more of a comic book store or reseller. Biggest problem is in todays world it's harder to sell comics because the younger generation for the most no longer find that as a cool hobby or fun thing to do. I started collecting comics in the late 80's i believe it was and had to quit somewhere in maybe the early 2000's. Having to take care of my mom and handicapped sister and such money just got to be harder to have. Things have only got worse since then and this may sound stupid but when i began collecting i saw it as fun thing to do but i was also thinking in my mind that having these comics would give me my saving grace if i ended up needing money to survive. Ive got over 5000 comics and have collected continuing series so a big majority of them are books in consecutive order. And of course the comic book writers or whoever decided to cost people money by making storylines be included in all titles, for example i had to collect 4 spiderman titles, 4 superman titles and i can't remember how many x titles i had to collect. When i quit collecting comics were up to 2.99 i think it was. I would also try to find back issues at our local comic book store. So I was a hard core collector i guess. I can tell you that as a kid i couldn't wait to watch shows like the original Batman and Robin, or Superman and back then they were the coolest thing and back then if someone would have told me one day you will get to see Ironman, Thor, Hulk and Spiderman and so on in live action movies i would have laughed at them even though the 80's brought the Hulk and that was cool and even Spiderman but when they started making them in the 90's they became more and more realistic looking. We have come a long way in technology. All the time i collected my comics i actually worked a lot and loved being outside more than in so id get my comics and put them directly into bags and backing boards and on a shelf or in a box so a big majority of my comics should be considered brand new but when someone comes to buy them they never are. We have only one local comic shop to go to and when i tried to sell them he offered a nickel a book. I wasn't going to sell them for that, that wouldn't do me any good anyways. To be honest i thought that was quite an insult to give to a customer that gave them thousands of dollars over the years buying comics from them. I thought they'd be my saving grace ,thought it was than blowing my money on a filthy habit and i had something to show for it. But turns out like always i was wrong. They still set on my shelf or in boxes. I'll never get to read them and enjoy them. most likely I'll end up homeless and all will be lost, probably to the landfill.

[@kahnlives]

You should go thur your books and find the Keys. Since you’ve been collecting so long you should have a good amount. I understand your dilemma, when we start out we never consider that one day our collections will overtake take us. The same phenomenon happens to toy collectors. Especially Star Wars and He Man, but on the bright side both of those IP are currently in the gutter. Maybe that’s for the best.

[@newrepubliccomics]

[@dc7468]

I know this guy his comics are way to expensive. Tread lightly people

[@toquendo0150]

Come I'll make you a deal. Hopefully you be a believer. But like I said in the video I can't always give every book away for nothing. But I will always try to do something to make people come back. Thank you so much for your opinion without it we wouldn't have diversity.

I sense a slight...dodginess about this guy...be on your toes!! I am sure he means well...and perhaps I am wrong...but...becareful.

[@alienboytoys]

Actually, here is an example...at the beginning of the video, he tells you the Wolverine comic he bought as Near Mint + and destroyed on purpose...then later he tells you he bought it without knowing it was damaged (and thus the reason why he had to fix it)...be careful!

[@SWMartin]

Yup this is a shady dude

[@toquendo0150]

Book was 9.6 is right . The book has thatarvel paper that was know for great flaws which this book only had flaws a 9.6 allows. I was which I said to myself it would be even more hard to do this spine split test on. and I'm the end I was RIGHT! just like the white Wonder twins book and the thunderbolts. I am LITTERALLY showing you and telling you what I am doing. I think that is the opposite of shady. then I say "I will Never sell someone a book I have tested on. Unless they really wanted it , But with full Disclosure. Look at all the video out there with me in it. the people I know. My head would be on a chopping block! But! As long as I am 100% honest and keep it 100% .I am doing the right thing. You don't have to buy that book I have Probably 20 copies raw and graded take your pick. You will never get anything less than Jesus honesty from me. But you can't please or change everyone's mind. But I is great to have our own opinions and guys you are not wrong until you meet the man or learn the technique yourself. Have a blessed day
