Mad Magazine Super Specials

Here's how I work these larger listings. Very simple. I put an average cost on the lot determined by condition and current Overstreet values. These books come from same collection, 8.0 is either right on or lower than what grades should be. I make that the Buy-It-Now fixed price. You really want it bad, you snatch it up. You want to deal, you give me a reasonable offer for the lot. It's that simple. If I don't like your offer, I will counter offer you. We get three offers (per Ebay) to come to a price. Most common trait of the collection is tanning margins. Email with any questions and check out the pictures and issue list below. Thanks for viewing! 

Issues included: 17-32,39-45,47-49,51 and a Crazy Super Special #58 just for fun.  

Combined Overstreet #39 value - $5 a piece just to move them. Classic parody humor magazines in great shape with all inserts still included. With shipping averages to less than $6 per mag. Not bad.  

Media Mail Rate Insured $20 Continental U.S. only.

Hawaii and Alaska $25

International destinations stated in listing details.

Shipping is an estimate since I don't know what final value and destination are, so it will be re-figured after winner is determined (if necessary).

All handling times begin AFTER payment clears. Combined shipping will be available on multiple wins of same materials (not comics and movies combined, etc.). Shipping prices should reflect Ebay's new September mandate on no separate insurance charges (meaning shipping will include insurance). Re-quoted shipping for combined wins will be worked to reflect the same insurance included. Please understand that costs are up all over the economy and I can't afford to eat shipping every time out. 

Every package I send has tracking and/or delivery confirmation! You will receive that number when it's shipped for you to track, too!     

Please check out my other items and also my great feedback for many a satisfied customer. 

More pictures available if needed. Email through listing with any questions and good luck.

No returns. All sales are final. All third party graded book sales are final. I'm a collector, not a dealer, so grades are opinions from 33 years of handling books. All grades, though opinions, are referenced through the Overstreet Grading Guide for consistency of grading parameters. Large lots are sometimes "averaged" at grade to encompass the range of an entire lot. Any noticeable defect will be disclosed, although some forms of restoration aren't easy to detect without the right equipment. CGC gives no guarantee a book will grade same way twice, so neither will I. 100% feedback seller to this point, so no worries there. Email any questions you deem necessary PRIOR to bidding. I reserve the right to cancel any bids I deem harmful to the auction. Communication is the key to great transactions, so please follow through with that little tidbit! Occasionally, I or you will make a human mistake, but good communication usually fixes the problem. Feedback will be given when feedback is received. I don't consider it "held hostage" to want to hear my goods and services were appreciated. I'm in sales in the real world and just paying for something does not make a transaction completed, especially if it's before you get the product. I will work with any and all for issues that arise. Thanks much and your business is appreciated. 

I've been a Marvel comic nut since 1975, when my friend used to steal his brothers books (I didn't know, I swear!) and sell them to me at school, 5 for a buck. Those were the good ol' days. These days, I buy and sell whatever I can as a hobbiest and investor (not a dealer), and I bought an enormous original owner collection in 2007, "The Stout Collection" from here in Indiana and am offering them up on Ebay. Common traits of this collection are some tanning page edges and maybe some reduction of cover gloss due to how books were stored on shelving out in the open! All defects of any book(s) will be duly noted for your consideration. Keep checking back for more silver and bronze books and title runs as I get them processed. Please email with specific questions and enjoy bidding on the auctions.   

Please contact me through the listings with any questions prior to bidding. Thank you for viewing and good luck.
