KEY COMICS #2, 1944, Consolidated Magazines. The Key and Will-o-the-Wisp begin.
Note: I am selling many CLASSIC GOLDEN-AGE comics this week, most starting at 99 CENTS. Auctions end Sunday night, November 8. Please see my other listings -- you might find something else you like.
ABOUT THIS COMIC: Key Comics is a classic golden-age comic that gives new meaning to the term "key issue." This actually IS a key issue, with new characters The Key and Will-O-the-Wisp. Published by Consolidated Magazines. SEE PHOTOS BELOW.
CONDITION/GRADE: I judge this comic to be in VG/VG- condition based on Overstreet guidelines. Some aspects of grading can be subjective, so please make your own determination by reading the following and examining the photos below.
POSITIVES: ORIGINAL AND COMPLETE. Nice cover display with primary colors. Lies flat. Single staple (WWII-era only had 1 staple) holds cover on snugly. Solid copy. NEGATIVES: Small split at bottom spine (about 1/2"). Inside 2 wraps are not connected to staple (there are no staple holes, so this seems to be a production flaw, which shouldn't hurt grade). Other general wear associated with this grade.
I have described the comic to the best of my ability. I always try to page completely through each comic and list all relevant flaws. I am happy to provide more details, so please feel free to ask questions if you have additional concerns about condition.
COMIC VALUE: A recent Overstreet guidebook values this comic at $46 in VG and $69 in FN condition.
(PLEASE CONSIDER BIDDING ON MULTIPLE ITEMS, AS I WILL COMBINE CHARGES TO GIVE BUYERS THE BEST POSSIBLE DEAL ON SHIPPING.)
• Shipping policy: I try to charge a fair rate based on materials and average cost for an item's size/weight. I WILL GLADLY COMBINE SHIPPING ON MULTIPLE ITEMS. Shipping costs/methods are negotiable based on your preferences. Please allow a few days lead time, since I can only get to the post office once or twice a week. INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS are welcome, but keep in mind that like many others on eBay, I will not declare a false item value on a form.
• Packaging policy: Items will be packaged carefully. Comics or magazines are usually put in plastic with a backing, then sandwiched between thick cardboard so the spine will not be bent in transit. I have never had any complaints about packaging. Extra padding and protection is used for rare/expensive items.
• Condition policy: As a frequent eBay buyer, nothing is more irksome than getting a "surprise" -- an item in condition notably worse than described. I will never knowingly misrepresent an item's condition. My pet peeves for comics/magazines are split spines and detached centerfolds, so if an item has these flaws it will be described in the listing. If an item has major cut-outs, tears or other flaws, it will be prominently mentioned, not buried in the description. I aim to be a seller who can be trusted.
• Returns policy: I don't have a strict policy, but I will allow returns for valid reasons. However, like most sellers I do not wish to spend extra time and fees having to take back items for frivolous reasons, so I won't agree to returns without justification. Please be sure to read the description carefully and do your part to make the transaction go smoothly.
