[QUOTE="ScruffyLookingNH, post: 446303, member: 6563"] Welcome to the forum. The following is assuming you're talking about the first run of SW comics by Marvel in the 1970s. They have released thousands of SW branded comics over the years. Most are barely worth the cover price. If they are just he 70s ones then your comics are both worth money and will find buyers. A full run of Marvel US are worth £500 in about VFN condition. If they are "very good" (VG) in the grading sense then they're worth, perhaps, £150. As you say, condition is key. As for the DH comics: not so much. These were well collected in the 90s but not so much now. Any one of the mini series can be picked up for £10 posted on eBay. However, that's not to say you won't find a buyer. And also, there's one of the series that contains the first appearance of the Solo twins. This was going for good money before Disney wrote off all the EU stuff! Best plan is to list what you have properly, provide photos and stick a post in the modern collecting for sale thread (or vintage FS thread of you have the 70s comics, of course) towards the bottom of the page. You can try ebay but unless you give them specific grades or very detailed descriptions you won't get much. You will probably be best selling in one lot and expecting to take around half of what you would get if you parted them out and sold individually or in mini series sets. Reason being your target market there is dealers who pay 10-20%, typically, or collectors who will strip out what they want and sell the rest. Good luck! Have sent you a PM as I would be interested in both versions, condition dependent. [/QUOTE]
