When many of us buy comic books we frequently read them and place them on a pile of old comic books or our book shelves. This attitude changes when we are collecting these comic books. In these cases we take great steps to preserve our comic book collection. There are instances where we may decide to sell comic books that we have doubles of or ones that we feel are bringing the value of our collection down.

To ensure that you are able to sell comic books that you have no need of there are certain steps that must be seen to. As many people want to have good quality comic books whether it is just for reading pleasure or for serious collecting you will need to make sure that both the inside and the exterior of the comic book are in excellent condition.

To sell comic books you will need to preserve the appearance of your comic books. You can store them in clear plastic sleeves with a piece of acid free cardboard at the back of the comic book to give the comic book a strong support. With the help of the supporting cardboard you should store your comic book upright on your book shelves.

This way you can be sure that your comic book will not develop any creases in the cover from the pressure of the other comic books. Besides storing your comics in an acid free plastic cover sleeve if you want to sell comics books you should know what are the types of comic books that are very popular.

Harmon asked:


I am about to sell my age old comic book collection (have not touched it in years- aside from the occasional moving of a box to get at something).

In any case, each book is in a 2 mil bag with a backing board. My plan is to take two pieces of over sized card board, sandwich the book between then staple the edges of the card board to keep the book from moving about, then stuff the whole thing into a large envelope with the words- “do not bend or fold” on the outside.

Does anyone have a better suggestion?

I need to do this on the cheap, and with as little time invested as well.

Thank you for your positive comments, and you kindness in this matter.
