Like to know what was in those nine lots to CGC? What was sent first? Why? What went next and Why? Why send everything to CGC?

Lot #1 My most salable lot, the lot with a few issue number ones, and the lot with the most popular comics:

All the comics in all the lots are Marvel.

Books 1-3 Iron Man #198-200

Book 4 Iron Man Annual #7

Book 5 Hulk #313

Book 6 Amazing Spider-Man Annual #19

Books 7-9 Amazing Spider-Man #268-270

Book 10 X-Men #197

Books 11-17 issue #1 of Alpha Flight Annual, Squadron Supreme, Nightcrawler, Vision, Hawkeye, West Coast Avengers, and Super Powers.

Book 18 Secret Wars II #4

All books were backed and bagged by the original collector over a long period of time. All looked like 9.8 or better to me, but what do I know at this point on the journey?

Lot #2 Send to CGC more of the more desirable books from the same collection as Lot #1:

Book 1 The West Coast Avengers #2

Books 2-4 West Coast Avengers #2-4

Books 5-9 Squadron Supreme #2-6

Books 10-12 Hawkeye #2-4

Book 13 Vision #2

Again all books looked like 9.8s to me, but what do I know at this point on the journey?

Lot #3 At this point I am saying what am I going to do with the books left over from the collection used in Lots #1 and #2. So decide to send remainder to CGC to do a clean sweep.

Books 1-4 Iron Man #198 that I had just purchased.

Books 5-25 Alpha flight #18-38

Again all books looked like 9.8s to me, but what do I know at this point on the journey?

Lot #4 This is me getting into the hobby! I purchased 6 Iron Man #199 from various vendors on eBay. They look like they have the potential of grsde 9.8 so off they go to CGC.

Lot #5-9 I saw a deal on eBay! A comic book store's inventory of 72 Amazing Spider-Man comics: #200-394,and Amazing Spider-Man Annuals 21, 22, 26, 28 for $86. Not sure how CGC will grade them but some will be 9.8s. I replaced the back boards and poly bags on many of them. It sure gives a better first impression when you see the books for the first time, but I doubt that it will change the actual score as they are discarded during grading.
