Comic Books are always fun

Bought: $5.64 Sold: $49.91 Fees: $5.34 Profit: $38.93

Chris picked this up for me at VV - he has done some good picking recently. It is a bound collection of comics - X-Men comics specifically - in a trade paperback (graphic novel). Marvel releases these "Marvel Masterworks" sporadically, and they are done so in a limited run. Some people enjoy collecting comics in this manner, and since they are limited and go out of print they usually retain their value. Chris and I, both being comic collectors, are always on the lookout for comics and trades at VVs, but usually for ourselves. I'd say about 1/3 of my collection of trades has come from VV. Chris already had a copy of this one, and myself not being a huge fan of X-men, decided it was better to sell. It sold pretty quickly, and brought a good ROI. Not at all comics are worth money, and most aren't, but being a collector helps. Chris and I know what will or won't sell.
