old 'rare' books/ comics

winckles

my mom and dad are sorting out a lot of their older possessions, trying to make abit of money and clear our the spare room for their grandchildren.

my dad has a lot of old japanese art books, some photography and rare auction books.

and two or three rare yrageal and urm phillpe druillet books.

now we've looked on amazon and ebay for prices and first editions are priced at about £60? (i cant remember what my dad's is i'll find out) and some at £25.

but then we've found others at as little as £8, and comic buyers offering £10.

where would you recommend us to take these books? we live near birmingham and wolverhampton.

thank you!

If you think you might be able to get a good price it might be worth using Amazon to sell individually, and of course if someone is offering you money already then maybe you should take that up - some issues or volumes are more valuable than others.

Looking on eBay for actual prices might help you decide how much to start any auctions. A dealer would give you a lot less for them, so for those kind of prices the effort involved in selling direct to a consumer buyer using a website marketplace may be more worth your while.
