• ABOUT US

  
  The name Sparkle City Comics is currently and historically important in regards to vintage comic books for numerous reasons. We invite you to take a look at our company history.

  Brian Schutzer, CEO of Neat Stuff Collectibles, revived Sparkle City Comics, a name familiar to many who have been around the comic industry for at least a few years.
  Schutzer started Neat Stuff Collectibles over 10 years ago, since then Neat Stuff Collectibles has established itself as one of the top buyers and sellers of comic books, toys, sports, music and all other collectibles.

  He said he saw a niche in the market for a seller willing to turn over entire collections in more of a wholesale format.

  “While most dealers prefer to piece out every single item, Neat Stuff Collectibles has focused on velocity and volume in order to establish what is now the only comic books and other stuff entire collection wholesaler in the industry,” he said. In other words, “Neat Stuff Collectibles invented its own market.”

  He said that over the past few years he has focused on original comic book artwork and established Brian Howard Art through which he has become known as a top buyer for the material. The experience and contacts made through that process have encouraged him to turn his attention to rare, vintage, high grade comic books.

  The first Silver Age comic book he ever purchased was a Fine copy of Amazing Spider-Man #14 from the original Sparkle City Comics at a convention in New York City. It helped him get hooked on collecting and still stands out in his mind among his favorite experiences in the hobby, he said.

  In Sparkle City Comics, it is Brian's intention to re-establish that name at the pinnacle of the hobby. He presents weekly and event auctions on eBay featuring what he describes as “a constantly fresh array of CGC comics of stunning magnitude and scope.”

  Additionally he promises, “For consignors an unbeatable 10 days to get paid, 10 days to sell, and the lowest commissions in the industry with no buyer’s premium. For buyers, true, honest no-reserve auctions.
