Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

Most of questions I get regard how to sell a collection. There are several ways to go which I can go into more detail. My personal recommendation, if you have the time and don't need the quick cash, is to set up your own storefront with one of the sites that offers them free. Check out http://novacomics.ecrater.com/. Very little time to set up and there are no listing or final value fees.
