Mile High Comics: Inside the WORLD'S LARGEST (10 MILLION COMICS!) Comic Book Shop!

[@geoffshaw346]

Once you see the rows upon rows of comics in boxes you are amazed at the accomplishments of this art form over time.All the love and dedication poured into this creative passion.Impressive.

[@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter]

Thank you!

[@turtleanton6539]

Yes

[@barrywainwright3391]

No wonder comics are scarce and getting harder to find because that comic store has most of them.

[@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter]

😂😂😂

[@Jordan-sv3pu]

That’s actually a very bad thing for collectors and newer people looking for specific items he can control the market just by how many he has which a year later and now look at the market 😂

[@johnwayne2103]

@@Jordan-sv3pu Just hope he has a good will, he isn't getting any younger and if this passes over to someone who doesn't have any passion for the business then the market could become flooded and tank it. Trying to value a collection like that to sell would be impossible. It's darn near priceless.

@@johnwayne2103 that's what i got from this too, market is likely over saturated.

[@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter]

Very true! He does a terrific job with display overall.

[@MaryMcQuain]

It just warmed my heart to see how excited you were during the introduction, and it just escalated in the store! It made us excited too! How cool you got to walk in with Chuck! Most of my immediate family is in Colorado so I’m checking to see if they’ve ever been there! Thank you for sharing 😀

[@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter]

[@MaryMcQuain]

Prime Time Treasure Hunter I definitely will!! Awww have yourself a blast!! 🥳

[@dom-perignon720]

Was happy to hear the disclaimer regarding the employee only sections. I've been going to MHSS on an off for more than a decade. Nice folks but very surface level. Certainly a place comic fans should visit but a little underwhelming if you're looking for some of the rarer books/ out of print collections and art books. Staff always seems too busy to talk shop or turn you on to something you were unaware of. They are always doing some major restructuring and over half the building is cordoned off like a construction site. They need to hire more staff honestly. I hate to bag on them cause I think they are nice people doing the best they can to keep up. Just not the type of shop you go to and form a relationship with.

[@aaronanglea]

Mile high wasn't named because they were in Denver, but because of their prices

[@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter]

Old joke. Lol

[@chewey3rd]

Regardless, I was able to pickup some nice fills for my comic book collection back in the early 80's from this amazing place.

[@Sitharos]

It's a nice collection, and that's what it really is. Chuck's collection. Anything that's worth collecting is horribly overpriced so you won't buy it, or if you do buy it, they can easily replace it and make a nice little profit off it.

[@treasurecoastpicker2744]

Wow, I knew the place was big, but to see it like that brings it to life. I don't think I ever realized that he had an actual walk in store. I've always though it was a warehouse for online sales. While I was watching, my oldest son came in the room and asked what it was. I told him it was Mile High in Denver. He has friends there so I told him that he must visit the store the next time he visits his friends.

[@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter]

Oh totally. He has had several stores and a warehouse but then he consolidated the warehouse and some stores into the mega store.

[@jameeledwards8836]

I just discovered your channel today. Subbed and gave it a thumbs up. I started my love for reading comics at 10 here in Philly which was in 1978. Lost my entire collection to a fire that started at my next door neighbors house in 1983. Talk about feeling like I lost a beloved family member. I also remember Mile High Comics two page ads, yellow with black type. I actually smiled while watching your tour. It took me back to a time when being a kid was fun. I'm 51 now and still have a love for and still collect when I can. Thank you PTTH. On to part 2.

[@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter]

Thanks Jameel. Please see the series through to the end. When you get there, let me know. Some ppl have been very moved but you’ll understand why when you get there. I appreciate you being a new subscriber and sharing your story. So sorry to hear about that fire. Welcome to the primetime family.

[@jameeledwards8836]

@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter I sure will. Again I've always had a fascination with Mile High Comics since the early 80's. Seeing it from the inside gives it perspective. Now with this plandemic, I mean pandemic I've had more time at home to watch the things that are of interest to me. Thank you for solving the mystery surrounding this place for me.

Prime Time if you're in Denver who's watching over Syracuse? Great video. When you see an amazing place like that, so huge and so cool, it's almost system overload. It's just as mentally exhausting seeing all the things at once as it is physically exhausting walking through it. So make sure to pace yourself. Enjoy your visit and have a safe trip back.

[@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter]

Pink Panther and Petey have things on lock down! Yeah, I came back today just to shop so I can get over the initial shock. Lol

[@GoldGauntletComix]

[@erictuxen]

I remember ordering books from Mile High Comics ads in Marvel Comics way back in the day. I was lucky enough to be in the Denver area a year ago and spent the majority of one day within those hallowed walls. It was truly awe-inspiring on the first visit. It felt like getting into Wonka's factory if you will excuse the comparison; too much to take in visually and a little overwhelming. Thanks for the great trip down memory lane. I hope to get back there one day soon!

[@b.l.fisher8230]

[@Jordan-sv3pu]

Guaranteed he pulled all the big books and over priced them

[@TearyEyesAnderson]

About 20 years ago, I spent $100 dollars on a box of comics that I was able to pick and choose from boxes which were labeled $1 a comic. I bought 12 boxes, of those long boxes, when I had my first few jobs. I paid probably less than a penny a piece per issue, but I gave them away a few years ago, to the Goodwill, and Disabled American Veterans {DAV}, with only keeping the most valuable comics that I had, like platinum age, and first appearances by Wolverine, Spider-Man Annual 1 and Silver Surfer type comics. My most favorite was that I got all 5 of the 1917 "Charlie Chaplin's Comic Capers" books, which reprints the comic strip, from 1915-1917. Hopefully soon I'll finish my video review, and reading of the first book in the series.

[@kreeg7051]

Make sure you ask Chuck about how he started the value-ing of comics by sales data and rarity. If you read Wizard or Overstreet price guide, then you should know that Chuck is the one who gave them those prices.

[@RockandrollNegro]

He didn't begin that practice. Robert Overstreet was the first to collect the data and average it. Chuck Rozanski didn't start contributing sales data to Bob Overstreet until the early 80s. You may be thinking of Howard Rogofsky, who was an advisor to Overstreet and Wizard from day one.

I have dabbled in comics my whole life..I collected 20,000 before I finally ended up selling my collection.I remember ordering comics from Mile High Comics as a kid in the 70s.I now wish I had all my books back that I sold of course.I got no way near the money for them I should have.I had complete collections of everything except Amazing Spiderman.I lacked the first 9 issues and of course Amazing Fantasy issue 15. I later opened a comic book store myself in 1993 in Indiana.That lasted about 3 years as Video Games took over all the kids money and I had to close.I had so many mint condition books that I could easily be a millionaire today if I sold what I had back then.

I've bought multiple comics from Mile High on Ebay. Most of them were returned. Mile High suffers from massive over grading. I would love to go to this store but I would avoid on eBay. You need to see what you are purchasing. Their prices are ridiculously high on Newsstand copies of anything. I would still love to go to the store in person.

[@juanaltredo2974]

I used to visit a big comic store and they gave 1 free comic to anyone who bought 2 comics or more, but the kick was that the 1 free comic was recommended by the staff, thats how I was introduced to great artists like Moebius or Manara. They gave the free comic in a way that they teased you to continue buying the arch or story plot. It was very clever and helped both partires, I wished they did in mile high these type of things that show a real love for the medium, and not just greed.
