Silver Age Comic books arriving at my doorstep

[SuperHeroesDen1]

Nice comics there buddy!

[yodawithsunglasses]

Do you read your comics or do you just collect them?

[chromiumcomics]

@yodawithsunglasses I've read over 2000 comics this year alone. Check out my blog to see which ones.

[carrots2606]

how did u get the money for all of this?

[showerman88]

Somehow, it always seems to be your videos that give me the bug again! haha!

[chromiumcomics]

@showerman88 That's the number #1 reason I make them ;)

[GreatGarloo]

That is a very nice copy of ASM #38. It didn't appear to have any chipping either! Good buy!

[chromiumcomics]

@GreatGarloo Thanks, I try to avoid chipping as much as possible.

[stilton201]

I enjoy comic collecting to. This morning I order Amazing spider-man #39: Unmasking of the Green Goblin :D

[chromiumcomics]

@stilton201 Good book to own, first Romita on Spider-man.

[stilton201]

@chromiumcomics Just found that out on wikipedia. :D Looks like a great book and can't wait until it arrives. I also got it for great value, at (With postage) £22.99. It usually costs from £60-£140, so i got it at a price I thought I couldn't get it at. Looking at other rare comics now and I hope to get a copy of #40 and #142 soon. Also maybe a copy of #38, Last issue with Steve Ditko's art.

[01DRose01]

[01DRose01]

[rrtx99]

Wonder how much it costed you? because you gotta be rich

[chromiumcomics]

@rrtx99 I think I sold my left kidney for those...no to worry I'm told they grow back eventually.

[rmack738]

is it your job to collect comic books, or just a hobby? Whatever the case, you are GOOD at it.

[chromiumcomics]

@rmack738 :) Thanks...It's only a hobby.

[thelilgamerful]

where'd u get ur comics?

[chromiumcomics]

@thelilgamerful I buy them all online...ebay, auction houses etc...

[yelloutnich777]

do u even read them or do u just collect?

[chromiumcomics]

@yelloutnich777 I plan to read all of them at some point but I'm a few thousand behind. But collecting them gives me almost equal pleasure.

[yelloutnich777]

@chromiumcomics cool, same her. ive just bought a superman vs doomsday collecter set and i dont plan on oppening it just yet

[timayyNYC]

im in marvel (no pun intended) as to your allocation of such an AMAZING collection, brings me back to when i use to collect comics when i was young. Ahh the memories.

[Cjflores99]

I only have 2 sliver age comics in my collection, and their daredevil 25-26

[joeblow166]

Must be nice to have a lot of discretionary income...

[chenbur]

good order if i have thet comics iwas happy but idont havt this comics =[

if you can do more vidio is good tahinks=]

[kuoip1]

nice comics i have the 14 issue of the organial x-men

[emanuelcako]

where do u order ur silver age comics? im only 16 and collect almost only marvel i got about 700 comics and my main goal is to collect all first issues of marvel superheros and first 10 spiderman issues including AF #15 but i cant find anyone that sells them.

[chromiumcomics]

@emanuelcako I buy them all online...ebay, auction houses etc...the ones you are talking about are all quite valuable so you need to find a reputable dealer you can trust.

Good luck with your collection.

[zdo5p]

wooow! must be so exciting to have them turn up at your door how much did that daredevil #1 cost? :P

[NuRapTV]

mother effer, the 3rd issue of x-men! how much did that bad boy set you back?

[chromiumcomics]

It gets better...if you're already impressed by X-men three...check out one of my other vids, the one called "Silver Age comics and comic keys" around the 3min10sec mark. Enjoy :)

[yaywhewclips242]

Are you able to order CGC grades yourself? I've only done it once at a comic dealer.

[chromiumcomics]

I hardly ever submit books to CGC, I buy them pre-slabbed and mostly crack them out.

[jeowun]

I see you have a couple that were cgc but open and placed in bag and board looks to me like a couple $100 of well spent dollars! COOL!!! wish those came to my door

[voorland1]

I think that's a least $250 in trades and about $4000 in comics...AMAZING....SHAZAM !!! :0

[slimpickens63]

Nice Chunk of change spent on those if they are Fine or better.... Nice

[TheANGRYCOMPUTER]

hey what u mean by silver age

[chromiumcomics]

Comic books from 1961 to +- 1970

[classicrockfan1313]

@chromiumcomics Really? I thought it was from 1950-1970! Lol! Im such a newb. :P

[AquaBoy1996]

where du u get ur comic bags from

[chromiumcomics]

The regular bags can be ordered from any comic shop, the mylar ones are impossible to get in Europe, so I brought some back with me from the US.

But I'm sure there must be a source in the UK for them.

[AquaBoy1996]

wat condition is the daredevil 1 in

[chromiumcomics]

Around the FINE mark.

[dylan1698]

cool comics

[chromiumcomics]

thank you.

[chromiumcomics]

Thanks. I'll try and get another one made next week.

[chromiumcomics]

It actually came out almost 70 years ago.

[spidermanfan4life12]

u have amazing fantasy 15 nice its a good book my grandpa has batman #1 he actually bought it when it came out he still has it in great he has had it 4 over 40 years

[chromiumcomics]

I bought a few that were around the $2500 mark..my Amazing Fantasy #15 and my FF #1 were the most expensive. I'd like to own a Batman #1 on day, but that book is a $10.000 book at least

[imtonystark]

man..so cool, hey whats the most expensive comic youve ever bought? (just out of curiosity)

[thecollegesagateam]

how much did the daredevil #1 cost

[chromiumcomics]

Around the $400 - $450 mark I think

[tellshiar]

Nice comics. Good thing I don't work at Customs (just kidding). Seriously, I am surprised that no one took a couple when they opened it. South America and Mexico have the worst Customs and mail carriers. I don't ship collectibles there anymore because I had problems with "missing items".

[chromiumcomics]

Never had a problem with customs or missing items, I've had over 10.000 comics shipped to me, a little more than 500 packages and only one has ever gone missing in all the years. Very happy with my (and the US') postal system

[urmzogna]

Yes they look like they are in nice shape also partly based on the Mylar type bag they came in. I want that DD#1 !!! Who do you buy from?

[chromiumcomics]

Well the DD#1 is in the "for sale" box :) in my other video...

I don't have a regular place where I buy my books, I search all over and try and get the best/most fair deals

[AquaBoy1996]

ur so lucky!!!

[marveljk]

OHHH cool are you a millionaire or what

[chromiumcomics]

Well I'm pretty sure I'm a millionaire in Vietnamese Dong ... but seeing you can't even get the cheapest I-pod for that I guess it doesn't count.

[dave0126]

You probably spend that much a week on CCEs. ;)

[ptheone]

I want some!!

[purplemask99]

DANG WHAT A BOX OF COMICS !!! wow and they seemed to be in great shape from what I could tell ... I got a lot of keys etc... but mine are the VG - fine range for the most part .

again , that was impressive (most impressive)

[chromiumcomics]

Thanks :)

I'm not a high grade collector myself, most of my SA books are between VG and FINE... my keys all tend to hover around the VG mark as well, my FF #1 is even a lowly 2.0 ;)

[prongster]

great comics.

[chromiumcomics]

Thanks :)

Should be getting another box like this this week

[hope2prosper]

well done, nice comics. approximate worth ? (U$ dollars please)

[chromiumcomics]

Thank you...so kind.

Value ? A big smile on my face and a pocket full of sunshine...

Check out my blog if you want more info on the collection and the odd valuation of my books

[DJdeadlyDALEK]

Did you just get your income tax rebate or do you typically have that much money to blow on comics?

[chromiumcomics]

I'm the heir to a famous Chocolate dynasty and get a monthly stipend.

If you want to have a look what's in the box I got in this week, just take a look on my blog. Address is in the video

[Animalvader1]

Great stuff and good taste my friend!

[chromiumcomics]

too much information :)

[osborn99]

Thanks for sharing this video, almost had an erction seeing it ;)
