I was wondering if anyone can tell me how I should go about putting this on ebay. Should I list each one or sell the bunch of them in one lot. They are in plastic with cardboard backs for protection. Any suggestions would be appreciated
Thanks

Do you know if they are what age they come from i.e., Gold, Silver or Bronze? As a general rule of thumb listing them singular should be reserved for key issues of either of these age groups or early silver age Marvel or DC comics. Listing as a group can be successful if you have gold/silver age complete runs or a mix of silver/bronze keys can also work well. An example of a complete run would be Spiderman #1 to the present or to at least the end of the bronze age (1983 or so).

Once you get a sense of the books' value, this question answers itself. (Sorry, I don't know of any way around that "homework'!) If you don't have the Overstreet "Bible," Google "Comics Price Guide com" for a useful online grading guide. A HUGE part of valuation is the tricky question of condition. It literally makes the diff. of tens, 100's, or even in some cases $1,000's on the SAME BOOK. But: if you've got books with 12 cent prices on the cover, you might REALLY have something. (The others have value, too..)
The rest depends on your time, energy, etc. As Kevin suggested, a "middle of the road" approach betwn a huge "group" sale and individ. books can make a lot of sense, for both seller and buyer. Good luck!
