Comic Books Value
By Robert Grazian
You might be sitting on a treasure chest without even knowing it. Almost everybody read comic when they were young, so you probably did, too. Some people have the foresight to keep those comics, and they are reaping the benefits now, because comic books value is always unpredictable, and the lucky ones find that they have ones which have extremely desirable comic books value.
There are many factors that decide a comic book’s value. Let us take a look at a few.
1. Condition: The condition the comic book is in is important. This is classified under a lot of headings, from mint, which is the best condition the comic book can possibly be, to poor. Realistically, you can expect most comic books to be anywhere from good to fine, with fine being a grade higher than very good. However, keep in mind that even if the rest of the comic is in great condition, if the cover is missing, the book’s value will come down considerably.
a. Is the cover still on the comic book, first, and if it is, is it on good condition? This is the single most important factor as far as the comic’s condition is concerned.
b. Are there any creases? The less noticeable creases there are, the higher your comic book will be priced.
c. Is the spine in good condition? This is another important consideration. You will start wishing you had never folded it back when you were reading it!
d. Are the staples rusted or discoloured? This is another important factor that decides how your comic book will be priced.
e. Are there any stains? Any kind of stain will lower the price of your comic.
f. Is anything torn, especially the corners? Or are they bent? If they are, obviously the value will go down.
g. Comic books value also depend on whether there are any pages missing. In short, you cannot expect much if the books are almost falling apart.
2. Rarity: As common sense dictates, the rarer the comic is, the higher its value will be. However, here, again, you have to have the cover of the comic to get a good price for it.
3. Popularity: The popularity of the comic in general is a question here. A rare edition of a Batman comic, for example, will fetch a much better price than a comic that is not that popular. Here, again, though, the way you market your comic books can make a lot of difference. There are plenty of collectors who specifically want out of the way comics, so you have to find these buyers if you want a good price for these comics.
If after reading that list, you think you might have something, get a professional to set the comic books value, and you will be all set.
