I sold comics at Eide’s for a pittance.

Eides has never had a good vibe (they try to hide the owner from the customers, but unfortunately the staff still has to put up with him). Eides would be last on my list unless by some miracle they had a better payout than the other options. Thanks for confirming .

They aren’t hiding Greg, he’s dead!

When he was alive I often saw him in the store and interacted with him. The most important thing about getting a good price from Eide’s is how rare/offbeat/interesting the items are. If it’s mostly mainstream films and bands you won’t do well there.

Yikes! I had no idea about Greg (thanks for the link). It's been a while since I've been in - I'm glad it's still operating (I've been buying stuff from them as far back as when they were in their old location on Penn before they got the big store across from the Greyhound terminal.

I may give them a try - can't hurt to see what they'd be willing to do in trade.
