According to James Massey, publisher of WhatSellsBest.com, a website providing free tracking and photos of top selling eBay items; (Including the Spiderman Comic) “In spite of our current economy, it appears some comics still have high demand. In January, a first edition Wonder Woman sold for $23,000, and almost everyone’s heard about the Superman sale.”

The Superman sale referred to, was a 1938 Superman comic. The first (comic book) to introduce Superman as a Super Hero. It recently made international news by collecting $317,200 in an online auction.

Massey added; “Unfortunately some owners of rare items don’t hear a news story. They might sell something for pennies on the dollar in a garage sale, or even toss it in the trash. It’s too bad, because today it’s fairly easy to get a general sense of the market values of most items. Usually in just a few minutes using free online sites.”
