This sub-forum of the Trade area is for swapping books and comics. New, Used, or anywhere inbetween.
You can trade Paperbacks, trade Trade Paperbacks, or anything else printed.

Good for swapping:
Single Issues
Graphic Novels
Trade Paperbacks
Novels
Heck, you can even trade your school text books if you think anyone is interested!

When posting your trade threads, please mention the condition of the book -
ie: is it in new/unread condition, read once, or used as a coaster and a Frisbee. (Hey, you can still read it.)

For now this is trades only. We’ll probably open a separate sale forum soon.
We might even try a DVD and videogame trade forum. Maybe.

Important notes:


Books ONLY!

Trades only! No Sales!

Trade at your own risk. We can’t oversee or guarantee book condition or anything else.

This forum follows ALL the same rules as the Trade Forum. If you can’t be bothered to follow those rules, you may be removed from the trade forum.

Whoops, I didn't see this thread and started one looking to buy some.

Would that be ok? I have nothing to trade, but there are a few that I'm looking for.

I guess I've a similar question to Kit's. Is it okay to start a thread in this Forum looking to sell trade paperbacks / comics yet? Or should I put it in the normal Sale and Auction Forum? Or should I do neither and sit tight for the Sale & Auction Forum: Comics Edition to be spawned? :p

This is a great idea!! Its a little late, but when I was at WWE, I noticed MSU bought the first 2 Bats/ Supes TPB's. I totally would have traded mine to him if I had known he wanted them...

Hey AZS,

Just to clarify here. The rules state "Books ONLY" but there are a number of threads already looking to trade books for clix. Before I add to that number, is that cool? Does the books only restriction apply only to what we're trading out and not to what we're accepting for trades?

Thanks for any clarification.

Almost forgot: Great idea. :cool:

My answer was that this is "Phase 1" so its trades only. I've closed my thread to honor that. Its not like I need a ton anyway. :p

I've put the question out there for opinions from Typhon and AZS and the others, so as soon as the answer is known, I will be happy to let you guys know.

I totally agree that its an awesome idea!

This is an awesome idea. Before I go through my stacks though, can anyone offer some helpful shipping tips? Is Media Mail the way to go for single books/issues vs. bulk? How about packaging?
