I did not know that. That's cool.

That's a well thought out and useful tool. Thanks for sharing.

To me that sounds about right. A (6.0) for $600 and a (7.5) for $1,050 makes sense in my little brain. Plus, Bob is usually willing to deal. So truth be told you could probably get that (6.0) for $550 all day long.

THIS seems to make the most sense to me. Thanks for all of your wisdom and responses.

Here ya go. It's the Spokane copy.

I was wondering if there is some type of formula that is used, when it comes to pricing graded books. To be more specific, graded books that don't have the luxury of ebay or gpa analysis for comparisons. For example, an Atlas PCH Astonishing #9 CGC (7.5) just sold on ebay for $1,050 this past weekend. I happen to have the same book graded CGC (9.0). I paid around $400 12 years ago raw. The (9.0) is the current, lone highest graded. And the next grade under is the (7.5) of which there are two. There are no recent comparable sales other than the (7.5) on ebay. My question is, where in the heck do I value my book? I'm assuming some other factors play a roll like highest graded, how many in that grade, etc. But I'm at a total loss. Is there some sort of mathematical formula that is semi standard to use? When it comes to what a (9.0) would be valued at versus a (7.5)? Or is it just sort of the wild west. Is a (8.5) book worth 1.5x what a (7.0) book is worth? That kind of thing. I know for many books (especially silver age) it's relatively easy. I know if I have a Submariner #1 in (6.5) I can find out pretty quickly what the value of that is. There are numerous examples everywhere and recent sales. But there are a lot of books where that's not the case. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. I know the vast array of knowledgeble board members, many of who are dealers, can hopefully shed some light.

It should be standard operating procedure, that if a book ever comes in with a piece of the cover (or back) detached. Especially if the piece is still present with the book. That the grading process stops before it goes any further. And the submitter is contacted.

After reading the first 4 pages of this post, I've realized one thing. When the time comes for me to sell my collection. I'm just meeting one of y'all in a back alley somewhere.

Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. Most of my books are going to be sub $25 books. So this sounds like the perfect way to fly. Thanks again.

Do you ship the Gemini mailer by itself, or do you put the Gemini into another package of some sort? And why does the Gemini need any extra backing boards? Isn't it rigid enough the way it is? Same question in relation to packing materials. Why is anything else needed other than the bagged and boarded comic? Sorry for all of the questions. But I am ramping up to sell a good amount of raw books, and I am looking for the best advice I can get. Thanks.

I knew I shouldn't have had that triple bean and onion burrito...
