How to Determine the Value of a Comic Book
- 1). Assess the condition of your comic book. Back issues - comic books that are not currently on the sales rack - are sold in conditions ranging from New/Mint to Very Poor. Condition determines price.
- 2). Refer to "Overstreet Price Guide" and "Wizard Magazine." These guides have definitive listings for each of the different conditions.
- 3). Find your title in the listing. If you have a recent, popular book, "Wizard" is the easiest source to use. However, if you have something a little more obscure, then "Overstreet" is your sourcebook.
- 4). Price your title according to condition. "Wizard" assumes you have a perfect copy, so you will always get the highest current value. "Overstreet" will list all the prices available.
