You'll Make More Money with Us. Here's why...
®
We work with you, not against you. The more you make, the more we make.
We do everything for each book
(1) Grading (2) Appraising (3) Putting each book on sale, and (4) Marketing worldwide.
We have a 25 year record in maximizing your profit.
Selling in bulk to someone else
When you sell books outright, the buyer wants to pay you as little as possible because every dollar they don't pay you, is another dollar of profit for them. Many buyers typically pay sellers about 10% of what their comics are worth. Some buyers may tell you that your books are in worse condition than they really are, or that there's little demand for your comics, to drive down the price they pay you.
In contrast, we'll be open and honest. We can afford to pay you more, because we have 24 years of experience in getting top value for each book. And, the more any book sells for, the more money you make and the more money we make.
If you haven't appraised comics before, let our 24+ years of experience work for you.
You'll make much more with us. Examples, based on the sale price of a comic:

* Amount Received is the money we receive for a book (not including shipping or taxes) after deducting any discount or coupon.
For a book sold on other marketplaces (such as eBay), fees or charges by the marketplace are also deducted.
** Once the per book fee is deducted from the "Sub-Total", the amount "You Get" goes into your account. Because of the per book fee,
your Share is the amount on the last line of the chart above.
*** The per book fee is:
A. $3.99 for any book with a cover price over 30¢, or
B. $2.99 for any book with a cover price of 30¢ or less
if you send 250 or more with a cover price 30¢ or less.
The fee is our charge for a comic bag and board, professional grading, storage, insurance, and labor - unpacking, professional, bagging and boarding and shipping.
For a book in lower demand and/or greater supply -- one that don't sell within 2 months, the per book fee increases by $1.25.
If your per book fee is
• $2.99, you receive more than 15¢ only when a DC or Marvel comic sells for $6.28 or more.
• $3.99, you receive more than 15¢ only when a DC or Marvel comic sells for $8.28 or more.
• $4.99, you receive more than 15¢ only when a DC or Marvel comic sells for $10.28 or more.
For example, if a DC or Marvel comic priced over 30¢ comic sells for $8 your share is $0.15 ($8 x 50% = $4, minus $3.99 = $0.01).
Instead, you get the $0.15 minimum. If most of your books have a cover price under 30¢, you should explore other selling alternatives.
Another example: You send 250 books with a cover price of 30¢
or less.
One is Amazing Spider-Man (1963 series) #60 with an Overstreet Guide value of $65. We list it for $96.85. Every month it remains unsold, its price drops 1/2 of 1%.
In 50 days its price is $95.88. And in this example, the buyer uses a 10% off coupon, reducing the price to $86.29.
You get 53% ($45.73) minus $2.99 = $42.74,
**** If the per book fee exceeds the Sub-total, "You Get" $0.15 for a DC or Marvel comic, or $0.08 if it's by any other publisher.

Frequently asked questions
How long has NewKadia been in business?
(since Jan. 1, 2020)
How do I track sales?
You Get Real Time Access to Your Sales Report
You get a private webpage to track sales. Here's an example of an actual sales reports.
53% of his 19 books sold in the 40 days. He got $1,994.88 of the $2,713.86 received (73.5%).
Unsold books are also show.
In this example, all his unsold books sold within 9 months.
Why does NewKadia pay more than local stores?
In 1999, I was selling my collection. I sent a list of my 800 comics to 27 comic book stores. The price guide said
they were worth $10,400. The only offer I got was $250. So I started selling the comics myself, online.
We've sold over 2 million comics, -- most every comic book character, era and publisher.
We pay more than locl stores and can still make a fair profit because:
● As an online store, our expenses are much lower than comic book stores.
● We sell to customers all over the world. Because we sell so many, we can pay more. What we give up per book,
we make up in volume.
With our pricing algorithms, we find a buyer for every comic. We'll turn your comics into cash much faster than most everyone else.
How big is NewKadia?
We're the biggest comic store in the world that only sells online.

What are my comics worth?
It's impossible to give an exact value until we grade each comic because a comic's value is based on: (1) What issue it is and
(2) its condition.
• Search for each comic at NewKadia. Its Overstreet Price Guide value is listed with the issue.
Supply and demand for sets each comic's price. Many want the first Superman comic, but few exist.
In 2024, one sold for $6 million. In contast, fewer want the first issue of New Mutants, which is in great supply. Its price - $42.
Our prices change daily, based its "supply and demand". Also, the longer a comic remains unbought,
the more we discount it from its Overstreet Price Guide value. Why? Because Overstreet is just that ... a guide.
A comic's real value is what someone is willing to pay.
So, if a comic isn't selling, we drop its price (about of 1/2 of 1% per month - 5¢ on a $10 comic) until it hits the price a customer is willing to pay.
• To see the criteria we use to grade each book, click here.
And remember, the REAL VALUE of a comic is its sale price, MINUS YOUR COST (in time and advertising) to FIND that buyer.
So, every Overstreet value is meaningless because an Overstreet "value" is a guess at its GROSS value,
before deducting the cost to sell it.
Several MILLION people see our listings each year. Can you reach millions of comic buyers?
What would it cost you to find a buyer for each book?
How much time would it take to find a buyer?
So, to determine a comic's real value subtract your actual costs and the value of your time from a book's sale price.
Or, have us sell it for you and save the time and cost.
Our program isn't for everyone. If most all of your comics are valued under $8.50
you should explore other options because your share will be relatively low.
How fast will my comics sell?
Two factors determine how quickly a book will sell.
The condition of the comic
Generally, if we have several copies of the same comic, the one in the best condition sells fastest (because collectors want the best). Copies in the worst condition also sell fast because they are much less expensive. As a result, comics without covers often sell quickly.
The popularity of the comic
We stock over 20,000 different comic book titles.
Amazing Spider-Man (1963 series) with 441 different issue is our #1 selling title.
Click here
for top 2,500 sellers. Comics on the list sell faster than those that aren't.
Does NewKadia get news coverage?
Yes, read the Philadelphia Inquirer's story about us (from Page 1 of the Sunday business section). The story was also syndicated throughout the USA.
Watch this CBS TV newscast about us
How accurately will you grade my comics?
Our professional grading team has graded over 2.7 million comic books. We grade every book accurately because when a book sells, we split the revenue with you.
How many people sell with us?
Over 900 people have sold with us. We've paid over $1 million to consignors.
Are my books insured and safe?
Yes. Our fulfillment center is fully insured. Located in suburban Philadelphia, we occupy the entire third floor of this brick building. Our insurance protects our inventory from fire, theft and storm damage.
Our entire facility is protected by two burglar alarm systems. One protects the entire 88,000 square foot building; a second protects our space.
The freight elevator connects to our loading dock, where FedEx and USPS trucks pick up our customer packages and deliver your books to us.
