Long story short...

Water pipe broke while I was at work. Came home to the kitchen flooded. Went downstairs to shut off the water. It was 'raining' due to the flood upstairs. Boxes of comics were like wet toilet paper. Had been out of comics for many years so had no idea of any values. Saved most ('saved' not being the best word), but threw one box away, due to all the comics were oversized and the box had no top. In the box were 2 copies of TMNT #! I had purchased off the shelf. Later found out what they were worth ... doctors blamed heart attack on cholesterol, but I know better.

Yikes.

Yes.

4.5

I'm getting to be in my later 30's and I honestly must say...I miss a time in comics when things were a bit more...basic. But as we all know the current trend is variants and it has soiled my collecting of new comics some. How do you know which one will be "the one" to pick up? For example...

ASM 55 has so many different covers. How can you possible choose which one to invest your money in on a graded version?

You don't.

Hi all, this is my first post here. I have a large Silver age collection from my father and recently started having each issue graded by CGC. Most are coming back in the 6.5-7.5 range but my Detective #359 came back at 3.5 due to a 1 inch x 1 inch missing piece on the bottom rear cover corner. I'm wondering if it's worth sending this issue in for CGC restoration? I know that restored comics are not as valued in general but I also know that this issue is in high-demand. Any advice or feedback would be appreciated.

Leave it alone.

I went with the Walk through express service so I am hoping to see a quick turn around on grading.  
 

That's the best way with high dollar items.  Let us know how it goes once you do it.

Ok, awesome, thanks guy.  The magazine category was it.  I actually just got everything packaged and mailed out.  Fingers crossed.  Thanks again. 

 

 

Those are beautiful.  Getting them pressed is a good move imo

I would slab the keys. Sell the small keys on ebay and use comicconnect for bigger books.
