My aunt does antiques but doesnt know about comics. So she looked up some prices and is now expecting me to get over 5 bucks for most of them with some of them for over 10 or 20 a piece.

I am not a comics expert but didnt the collection market kind of crash?

My local comic shop is a game store that has a 4 foot wall of new comics so they wont buy them.

Some of these the covers are not even connected anymore.

Well here is what I got i will star the ones in terrible condition. Everything else is in decent to good condition.

You'd be lucky to sell for a quarter a piece

Most likely you'll get lot priced at a dime a piece

Comics aren't worth dick

Unless they are golden age or have the "first appearance" of a famous character you aren't getting anything for them. Hell, you will probably get less then anything if they aren't in pristine condition.

My comic shop would probably put all of those in the 75 cent bin, which means they probably are paying around 25 cents each for them. You are probably better off putting them all in a single eBay auction in hopes that someone will buy the lot for more then the 25 cents a piece you would get selling them to a shop (if they would even take all of them).
