OUR DIFFERENCE

ComicConnect's mission is to offer vintage comic book, original art and memorabilia buyers and sellers an easy-to-use alternative to consignment websites, auction houses and "feeBay". Most importantly, ComicConnect offers you, the user, control over setting the prices you want to pay, and the prices you receive for the sale of your items.

TESTIMONIALS

Back in 2018 Vincent Zurzolo helped me have my Amazing Fantasy #15 graded by CGC, Vincent knew I had no intention of selling, but he made a point of brining that book with him on his trip to CGC, he treated the book like it was his own copy and came back with a respectable grade of 8.5, Vincent always kept in touch and when he came across great offers, he would reach out to me. Vincent was able to broker an enormous sum for the book recently, too good to pass on, payment was quick and a check was ready for pickup, wouldn't have anyone but ComicConnect sell my books, they recently sold more of my Silver Age key books at above market value, this is the place to sell your comics, period!

-Sam

I have been a collector of high-grade Golden Age comic books for 20 years. Some of my best books have come from ComicConnect. When I decided to sell some of my 'treasures', I turned to ComicConnect. The prices they helped me realize were beyond my expectations.

-Gerald

Yes, there were quite a few auction possibilities, but I came to feel most comfortable with ComicConnect. One of the things that impressed me was their ability to promote and publicize their auctions. They auctioned a copy of Action 1 and I recall hearing about it on WBBM radio in Chicago which I thought was rather unique for a comic book auction. I’ve dealt with Stephen Fishler since 1986 and he impresses me as someone who enjoys comics, so it’s not just business. Their attention to detail for each auction listing was impeccable. My double cover collection reached prices that were well beyond my expectations and all for a very low and fair commission rate.

-Joe

Thanks for the exceptional job you did auctioning my grandfather L.B. Cole's art collection. The prices realized were far more than my wildest expectations. The team blew me away with the amount of personalized attention, advertising and promotion they gave the event. They kept me informed every step of the way. When considering where and how to sell my collection I had considered a number of options and am very confident I made the right decision. Decades of experience, relationships with big spenders and a fantastic website made all the difference. I wholeheartedly recommend ComicConnect to anyone who wants to bring their collection to market and have every confidence they are the very best in the business.
