#47 continues to elude me. I just lost a clink auction on one last week. I'm hoping to grab a copy soon.

Not much of a copper collector these days but it does take up a large part of my OO collection. Filling in the gaps on some FF that I missed off the rack back in the day. Clink win:

Couple recent clink wins here, Lol, looks like I'm now working on 30 - 300 . Nothing super high grade abut the price was right. I may crack the 81.

Congrats to the top 4! I feel good about where I ended up. I guess that's a top 10 finish with ties? I couldn't overcome the 8 in the first round but was able to cobble together 3 other good rounds. Round 1: 8 Round 2: 2 Round 3: 5 Round 4: 4

Had a recent purchase with Arashikage26 and it was super smooth. Accurate grading, shipped right away and well packed. Buy with confidence!

Second guessing this round cost me 3 points as I could have had a 1. Seems like I'm not the only one that struggles with low grade Golden age books. I had this as my initial thoughts Startling Comics #40 - 2.5 Strange Confessions #1 - 5.0 Fantastic Four #50 - 7.0 Happy with the 4 for this round though.

It's done. I sent the extra package of small unmarked bills along with the PM. Thanks for doing this @CGC Mike These contest are such great practice and help make me a stronger grader.

First pass/initial impressions are done. Now I just need to click, zoom in and out repeatedly, out think myself, obsess and kick my OCD into overdrive. I should have my grades submited shortly.

What a bunch of fargin sneaky bastages. That sucks, hope you get them back.

Nice job on a tough round!

Same for me, I was getting a different interface for a while and a 500 error everytime I tried to log in.

Not too bad I guess. I undergraded the Hit (4.5) and Showcase (3.5) by two grades and gave the Dr. Strange a 5.5. Two bullseyes on the last two for a round of 5.

Shoot me a PM when you can. I imported 12K books from CPG into CLZ and there are some pain points I can tell you about that will make it easier in the long run. I'ts a bit manual but not too bad. For #2 I think there is a way to export from CLZ into Covrprice but you don't need to. Covrprice support can help with that I think.There's a CLZ facebook page that is pretty active and the CLZ admin can give better advice on that.

Sorry for the delay. Too busy herding cats today. Grades in!

I figured the stain on this one would cost about 1.5/2.0 on this one. I have a GS X-men that I thought for sure was an 8.0 and it came back a 6.0.

I just tried the bar code scan and it worked really well. You can sync from the mobile version to the cloud version and vice versa pretty easy. Each entry links over to Covrprice for so you can see the data. No link for books you don't own though. If you mean the values from Covrprice then yes. If you have you collection on Corvprice then it isn't automatic as far as I know.

Yes, same stain as the back but much lighter and only really visible from the inside FC. Probably about a 1" triangle.

Solid higher end mid-grade copy that is impacted by the moisture staining seen on the back cover bottom. Seems to be some minor transfer to the first wrap or two. Front is not as evident and restricted to BLC only. How badly would the moisture hurt the grade?

I've been a comicspriceguide member since 2006 but signed on with CLZ and was able to import my entire collection via CSV. It wasn't perfect as the variant covers/newstand/direct editionds aren't aligned but it's workable. I'm also paying for the Covrprice membership as it imports prices into my collection. Covrprice replaced the Gocollect pricing info within the CLZ app and as stated above, flawed but improving. Definitely a much better interface the comicspriceguide. I'll maintiain both for a year and make the call then.

2 that makes up for my 10 in the first round

I live by two simple rules when I post a 1) I’m committing to a puchase 2) I don’t if I don’t have the $$ If the buyer was dissatisfied with the invoice time, it’s on them to PM the seller and ask for the invoice. Not sure if the length of sale was noted at the start but if it goes beyond 30 days a post offering a cash out should be enough. Sounds probation worthy to me.

Grades sent! Anticipated response:
