    I am about to send in about 50 books for grading. I would like to use the pre screen service. When I was looking at pricing on the cgc website it says that for pre screen to choose either the modern or the economy. The only thing is that for the modern and economy it said that the max value is $400. What if you want to pre screen a book and the grade you put for the pre screen would make the FMV over $400? Is there a way to pre screen these more valuable books?

    I recently purchased a star wars #1 in a cgc 9.6. Looking it over I see 3 small spine ticks that are non color breaking. I think a press could get rid of those and hopefully bring it up to a 9.8. I read on a blog post that cgc offers this kind of pre screen. Can you give me some details on the fee for the pre screen and then the cost of the pressing if cgc determines it will help the grade? Is this service part of the service that requires a 25 book minimum? If it is determined a press could help it, would I then pay the 3% fee of the FMV for a 9.8 if it is regraded as 9.8? Just trying to look at what the total cost might be. Also my last question is if there is any possibility that the comic could grade lower. I would think if it was already deemed a 9.6 and then I use the in house press service, the quality of the book couldn't possibly go down unless the pressing service messed the book up. Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
