I feel like wearing a "comics" sponsored t-shirt to dig for comics makes it harder to get deals bc sellers automatically know you know what youre doing 😂
CaptKirk 723 my wife asked me why I wasn’t wearing a comic T-shirt when I went to the flea market the other day and I said that exact thing
Good advice.
Exactly what I was thinking too.
Exactly. Plus walking with a camera makes it worse ? They probably think anybody with a camera is recording how most people don't know what they have, so they get defensive sometimes ?
But thank you for all the fun videos brother.
Nothing beats the thrill of the hunt.
👍
Nice video, a few decades ago I took a dozen long boxes to our local flea market for 4 weekends in a row in hopes to unload my crap books, sold them 2 for a dollar. In a month I sold only half the boxes. The reason I stayed a month was was you got half off your booth if you committed for a month. Made about 800$ clear. All the books were basically free, When I was young I worked at 1 of 2 comic stores in Vegas for a decade, and the way the owner paid me was in Comics, so for 10 years I never paid for a new book. I started at 10$ a day, got up to 30$ a day after a few years and began running to store. What a fun job to have as a kid, as I became an adult I maxed out at 30$ in books a prime rib dinner every night and all the weed I could smoke. Good times!!
I recently bought a bunch of Warren publications from the 1970's they included, Creepy, Erie, Vampiirella and Marvel Monsters plus some really sweet Skywald Psycho magazines and a Doc Savage # 1.
Could not believe 1st Mephisto &
2nd galactus at a flea market. - Thank
YOU !!!
... and the guy refused to sell them. smh
I kinda get tired of people have items up for sale you pick thru then they dont want to sell. Great vid kinda shows the real world of hunting.
That guy wanted someone to pick out all the good books so he wouldn't have to figure it out himself. I had that happen a few times. $1 bin books turn into not for sale books.
Yea true but is it a smart thing to do??🤔😺

Gotta thank you man. You've motivated me to go hunting more than i use to. Today i find 2 issues each of venom 1, 2 and 3 1sr print for 5$ a piece. All look mint. Gonna pay it forward. A friend got me back into collecting about 2 years ago so I'm gonna hook him up cheap on one. Thanks again man. Keep it comics.
Love your videos Gary! Always a pleasure watching them.
Gary great video as always.
My wife and I may try this flea market next year after your info on this one.
It was crazy that one seller didn't want to sell his books.
Keep up the great work.
Flea markets are always fun to go to, we have a decent size one near where I live, see you tonight Gary...be safe and keep it comics!
Those were the best set of comics and slabs I've at a flea market. I have had zero luck but will continue to hunt at flea markets
Love Flea Markets...Thanks for sharing your Hunt!!
Imagine bringing those books to a flea market just to give them a little of fresh air, not selling. 😄😄
Pretty good hunt! Beautiful weather! Thanks for sharing with us!
Nice pulls at a flea market. Thanks for letting us tag along. Stay well and keep it comics.
Good day out with a buddy and comics! Sounds like a great time! Glad you found some things to take home.
Man... What a shame that guy wouldn't sell. Those were some good books.
Hi Gary, thanks for the video,fun to watch and I am learning always a ton from you. I am from the Netherlands, so it is harder for me to hunt: there are very few LCS, flea markets with comics and the like.
But, two days ago I found a comic shop online with three comics that I was able to buy at cover price and less: 1st Galactus Lifebringer, House of M 1 the sought after variant and, for about 3 dollar, Hawkeye 9 2nd print variant, the sought after Aja copy. I am awaiting the package, here is hoping for a good quality.
I would never have been able to spot these gems without people like you sharing your knowledge. Thanks for helping me with the hunt! :-)
Awesome video! Im also going comic hunting at the flea markets this weekend(michigan) and also doing some birthday activities good times
Nice - Stormville is 25min from me. Didn’t realize they’d opened. I might swing by this weekend and look through your leftovers!
Thanks for all the videos. Im new to comics and i have learned a ton from your video's.
Great video! I'm glad you had better luck at this flea market than the last one.
Haven't been to a flea market in months, never got lucky snagging any major keys but have found some gems. Can't WAIT to get back out there!
Gary, I'm very jealous of even your small flea market, ( that sells comic books ) especially when I saw the graded books.
Interesting that one particular dealer refused to sell to you, because I doubt he's going to get better offers on those books, as they looked very low grade.
But I'm glad you found something, to make the journey worthwhile.
Great video! Thanks for doing these hunting videos. I haven't been able to go treasure hunting in far too long
Love a good flea market, hit one at a church last Sunday Gary and came up on my spawn fill, guy had about 25 books between 160-200 and came up on .50cent boxes for some X-men that I needed.
Keep the content coming👍🏼
Berkfamily54comics here at work - great video Gary! Awesome books! Sorry to hear you weren't able to buy the books he had out. Great stuff!
That was a pretty nice looking flea market! I’ve gone looking at a few near me but I’ve never seen slabs there! Cool finds!
Wish the flea markets around me would open up again. But got a good laugh at the guy who brings comics to sell and is like, nah I think I will keep those. Must have recognized you and was like I’m not going to lose out on these.
guy who wouldn't sell his comics ? That was funny ! 😂. Been going to Stormville myself for years. Nice pick ups once again !
That dude is definitely gonna reprice those books he didn’t want to sell. 😆
As a fellow flea market thrifter I have never seen graded comics at a flea market, The moment I saw those I knew I probably wouldn't be able to buy anything for cheap. But that's why I am a cheapie when it comes to thrifting for deals. Great Video thanks for sharing and Happy Collecting!
Hey atleast it wasn't all rainy and a crappy day like the last flea market lol. Great pick ups.
Flea Market hunting is where I've had my best finds. I'm fortunate to have several good flea markets within a 45 minute radius of me in Pa.
Another video,and a live stream tonight, you’re a glutton for video punishment,nice video Gary, I also can’t wait for next year ,gonnahit the hunt ...hard. Since watching you’re channel, it’s inspired me t get back into collecting....it’s double the fun this time around , my boy started collecting now...they love The Joker war ,Nwe Juggernaut & Justice League..,Thanks again for killer content as always.
I dig your haul videos. I have been working on some myself.
Always love digging for books at flea markets
Hey Gary, Keep those connections growing!
Have been to Storyville hunting for comics. Hot or miss but nice to do on a beautiful day. Not so much when it rains.
What’s up, great job love ur channel, can’t get enough!
Cool Hunt episode:).. I found a rare comic book while diggin deeeeep:)))
It looks like you had a lot of fun and you pick up some really cool books👍
Nice video . Keep up the great work
Awesome work mate
I think I found our way in, lol. I enjoy these type of videos.
Like the content of your channel... 1st time watching.
Love the hunt vids. Great fun.
Nice little finds. Never seen a slab at a flea market before
No take-backs once it's in the sale box!
Great friggin books. All I see at the flea markets I go to is candles and bad paintings.🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Thanks for the video pretty cool... Even though the flea market was half empty it was still better than anything around my place. Can't believe the guy tells you he doesn't want to sell the comics what a joke.
I love taking the time to pick at flea markets
Next time you drive really far south to pick up a collection, you should look for flea markets. There are a ton of great ones down south (VA,NC,SC)
Great set of comics!
Awesome hunt!
Great video! There will come a day when I have the knowledge to know what I’m looking for, but today is not that day haha. Also that guy not selling is bulsh, he’s a Doomis...
Love these hunting video, keep it up Gary, and those guys are the worst,, after pull comics , and they say opps not for sale.
Not bad! Nice Spider-man comics!
Nice video man! :)
I'm a new collector and I love your contents!
Great job loved the video
Favorite comic CZcams channel. Thanks for the content.
And speculation on the TMNT The last Ronin run?
I think its going to be a great story with some great artwork.
Here is my proven flea market comic buying technique. Make a sign "I buy comics" on both sides and hold it up as you walk. Dealers that have comics and know nothing about them will chase you down. Sometimes they have them tucked away, or even in storage. Now, you get first dibs on an collection. Dealers that know comics will fear you!!
Love these videos. 👍
Damn! You two together are trouble! Hahah jk. Great video!
Hey Gary.. Sent you an email last night, just making sure you got it. Cool vid and thank you again to you and Ryan. Great giveaways.
WhataJErk! That guy... Hehe LOOKS LIKE A FUN FLEA MARKET!
That MAN-THING comic would be an awesome score.
Nice haul. I hate venders who just want to show off the crap they’re selling. Such a waste
Good video man. People that bring items to sell and then don't should just stay home.
Flea market hunting is satisfying because finding even the smallest prize makes you feel like a treasure hunter!
I would of been mad as heck if after you spend time picking out what you want and the seller is no not selling them, what in the blue hell. Solid show!!!!
Nice comics to see. Sorry you couldn’t get those Surfer books.
Love me a good flea market! That guy was a douche..look at my comics but no buying lol
The first red flag was "I haven't gone through those yet." Wasn't surprised at all that you guys had to walk away.
@charlie cole I sorta believe it because Aquaman 1 is over $200 dollars even in ugly condition. Lol it wouldn’t be in a cheap bin anyone can just grab.
I am a Spider-man fanatic. Venom, Carnage, Miles Morales Spider-man, and Spawn these are my top five
I can't believe that guy that didn't sell to you. At least he could have separated the ones he didn't want to sell.
Gary: Hit that like button if you enjoy the video.
Me 1 second in to the video hitting like: I know I'll enjoy it, I always do :)
I’ve been to that flea market and stopped going a few years ago because never found anything. Seems like maybe it’s time to go back
Great video
Nice haul, cannot believe that guy could even price those out for you.
I wish there was a flea market near me that had some cool books like those you found bro. I went to a local one last weekend and the best book I found was a Demon #10 in 2.0/2.5 condition for $20! What a joke. Anyway, good luck next time.
Great video. Sucks that dude decided not to sell his "best comics". Why would he keep comics he's not willing to part with in long boxes with all his other comics?
Oh wow that used to be my LCS really cool guys in dobbs ferry
Gary, I have all 12 of those McFarlane Era Prism cards (6 from the first series and 6 from the second). Are they actually worth anything these days? I've had them in hard plastic shells since the day I pullled them from the original packs.
It's funny lol when I go shopping I'm always out of my government job so no one would guess I love comics lmao
Definitely want the Spider-man cards
Yeah, in IL we seem to have comic vendors like the guy who SUDDENLY decides he won't sell his comics because you happen to be recording the session on video like he's giving something away too valuable!! I have been actually kicked out of stores for doing what you did because i simply am not afraid to NEGOTIATE. These guys think that the guide prices for a 9.8 apply to their less than VG comic books...it's hilarious!
Nice pick ups
I love to find beat up comics to read at these
Awesome video Gary. That guy that didn’t sell you the books was probably some idiot who was waiting for all the good books to be picked out.
I love looking for comics where ever I can
Awesome
Recently I have been collecting captain amarica comic books from the early and mid Bronze Age
Would love to chat again! Great finds
Dude Gary your killing it on the hunts! 1st Mephisto, I probably wouldn't have parted with it either but I definitely would've rewarded you, dude is a cold piece for that one.. the images on the Todd Mcfarlane Era Spider-man trading cards are soooo lazy and the card stock is so thin that every pack comes warped, I do like that Wolverine card that has him holding a rifle though
Wow -would have been nice to get the silver surfer-but ow well, maybe next time
where in NY do you live? I saw you went to the spot in the Bronx last week. where are those flea markets?
Dang. How much was the fantastic four 49 & 50?
Sweet video! Are you pulling GPA to check prices with these opportunities or GoCollect or another app?
Not in thr fly
Found an ASM300 for $8 at my local antique store. About a mid-grade condition but lucky find 😅.
Great find
