Is This Thrift Store Comic Book Worth $314?
Ойын-сауық
In this video I went vintage toy hunting in some local thrift stores and ended up finding several big stacks of Vintage Spider-man comics and one of them could be worth at much as $314!! It’s a Spider-man comic featuring the first appearance of Electro!
I had to ask myself, “Is This Thrift Store Comic Book Worth $314?”
I had a really good time thrifting for vintage toys!
Who’s ready to go on another epic, vintage toy hunting adventure with me?
Then Let’s Roll Out!!

The stranger things tmnt packs are based on the turtles first appearance. They all had red masks but different weapons. Raph stayed the same with his mask color. The one with the sais (the ones this kinda look like forks) is Raphael. And the other one with the nunchucks was Michaelangelo.

Love to watch episodes of Froggy Flips too. Thrift stores, conventions, garage sales, etc. Fun stuff! :) Some of the sales are just plain luck and people not really knowing what they are selling. But Froggy Flips is now also known in the retro toy hunting and reselling business and fellow hunters / resellers therefore just give him some slack from time to time. Great community and fun videos to watch :)

Alpha Flight #1 is worth between $10-20 depending on condition as it first appearance of the team a key comic with 6 first appearances .If all those not for resale Spidey comics were genuine issues you would have 10s of thousands of $ worth as they are all very early issues. Great stories though, worth reading as classic Spidey Stan Lee stories

The original turtles comics were black and white with red highlights so the only difference between turtles was weapons and attitude. I think for awhile marvel had figure vs packs with repro comics in the back of the original appearance that might be where the repro comics are from.

the comics that are not reprints, you're looking at 5 bucks each in the condtion they look in. 8 to 10 bucks if they are in NM (near mint) or VF (very fine) condtion. I did see the alpha flight # 1 going for 15 bucks in NM or VF. I have a little over a thouand comic books I'm trying ti sell myself.

Dude that Pipi Longstong doll is awesome!! My dad was a Nazarene minister, I would have been thrown out of my house if I brought that Satanix game home. The Turtles were based in the original Turtle comics where they all wore red masks. Take them to a comic shop to get the appraised. The repros would make good displays if you put them in dollar tree frames (the document frames should work) with a black background. They would sell at a flea market or on Facebook Marketplace for like $5 each.

I'm seeing lots of leftover Target collector's type toys there (or Walmart I guess), so that's where they all go, lol (they need some serious security though). 20:14 - Those are different turtles, the original comic books (Eastman & Laird) had them all wearing red bandanas (because they were all real ninjas so to speak). 26:01 - Sorry :(, comics are a funny business, I have probably about 500 or so sitting in a box that I will just give to my son when he gets old/mature enough (well except the Daredevils). The non-reprints are worth a little bit of money as I recognize many of them from when I did actually collect comic books. That Spider-Woman #42, Alpha Flight #1 and Spectacular Spider-Man #97 especially are probably worth the most. Put the "Not for Resales" in a lot, and the rest individually. It'll work out.
