    I'll go 2.5 for the Avengers 1.  I was at 3.5 and knocked off a point for the chunk missing and a pretty messed up back cover.  Presents just a bit too well to go 2.0 and 3.0 seems out of the question.

    On avengers do you think worth a press clean by a good pro? Joey or mike from hero

  2. Ok This is a Two Part Question 1 Tell me what you think I have had these for about 15-20 years. 

    Question 2.  Grade for Blue, Restore or leave as it.  

    Ill answer all questions.  

    Both are in Rough Shape

    Avengers Massive chipping Chunk out of cover...Spine is So stressed it Drinks like Jessica Jones

    JIM Well rougher..CHippasauras Rex , Folds and a Massive Stab wound about 1 1/2 inches in right below staple

    I think, at least for the Moderns like the Thanos 13 - 15, you are much better off submitting the 9.8 candidates using a 9.8 prescreen. If the book does not pass, you only get charged a nominal fee. The error in your logic above is you are assuming the press will get you the 9.8. If it does not, you have really wasted a lot of time and money. Unless you are really good at knowing when a press can help, and you have a presser that will also take the time to press the book properly, your 'press-why not' approach will not be fruitful long term.

    Ive never had 25 books to do the pre screen at cgc but even a 9.6 warrants the additional 15.  But If I did do a pre screen on 25 Books and they needed work I wouldnt have CGC do it.  I may pre screen on site two mega keys at denver , des moines or chicago

    Why would you get a book pressed that has no defects and/or has a pristine cover ? Do you press every book you submit ? 

    Actually not at all this is my first 3 times ever pressing.  Silver age Keys to send in or those you think Mighty Grade high I will always Press Silver Keys 

    CCS Quick press required 15 books and I can only tell so much on the new Books if a Cleaning of thumbprints or may help. 

    For Example

    I sent in 2 of the same era X-men 266 and SS Vol344 Both 1990 both have been in my collection since those days.   X-men 266 is a beautiful book but, SSv3 44 needed a press maybe a little clean

    I have books from 5-6 years ago that a press may or may not improve to a 9.4-9.6 (Infinity Djurdevich Variant, Nw Avengers 8

    Thanos 13-15 (I mean Really?)  Why not,  it can only help me to a 9.8 but a 9.4 is possible but the differential in value is more than the $8.  

    No one here can actually say this is a 9.4 and not a 9.8 and a 9.8 is a 9.4 all the time..  

    Sent in the Beta Ray Bill trio 337,338,339 now those covers are ALL WHITE (337 and 338) and are 35 years old so a clean can only help.

    I sent in  f-vf- Bronzers that can greatly use some TLC but aren't worth the $30 a normal C&P would need but $8 to possible get 6.0-6.5 to 7.0-7.5. or an 8.0 to a 9.0-9.2

    Daredevil 131, , Xmen 141, Xmen 96, She-Hulk 1.  

    Some I keep for myself some I sell  what I sell pays for the ones I keep or an upgrade.  

      

  5. Ok I have seen Joeys work and i pay about 30 a book with mike from hero restoration for a full service.  I did however send a batch of 15 moderns to ccs ranging from a book from january 2018 to a 1977 book for their fast job.  I am awaiting the results.  I chose books with varing times and ages between 1977 and 2018 some 80s with no real defects and some with defects some with prestine covers others with some markings.  I am not new just new to actually getting them pressed by ccs.  I will judge only on my observations, my notes prior, their grading notes and my expectations.  Ill let you know.  They charged me for grading the 15 today.  So i assume 3 or 4 weeks. 

    However if a book needs some tlc (key, serious cleaning, silver age) id use one of pros on here.  Their results speak for themselves

    Yes I did. I was fairly underwhelmed I have to admit. Its possible I put too much faith in pressing in general but on several of my grader notes, there were flaws listed that I would have thought would have been alleviated with a pressing. Nearly every single one had "non-colorbreaking spine stress lines" listed with one having a "cover indentation" and another had a tiny non-colorbreaking "crunch" on one corner. 

    I will most likely try out 3rd party pressers in the future such as Joey who seems to be very popular on here. 

    I just sent 7 SA books to Mike from Hero Restoration.  Ill let you know how it turns out.  I havent tried Joey.  This was my first time pressing.  15 modern with ccs and 7 SA with mike.  

  7. I agree, I would never deal with him.  And this transaction is upsetting.  I think he should be placed in Hos or prob...i dont think we are the only ones.

    @Jaydee Just my 2c but imo you have a stronger and clearer case for PL nomination, as your transaction is absolutely and clearly incomplete. As of tomorrow it will be 30 days since the seller acknowledged your buys and has failed to follow through with payment information. It is therefore still possible that the seller has the books and could complete the transaction. This would be the straightest line to a PL nomination. 

     

  8. On The Same Thread I Was the I'll Take it winner of 3 Comics.  I contacted him Right away after he Responded with the WINNAH Emote.  I asked for Payment information and was Never Responded to.  I Send several PMs and Still No Response.  I concur with bluehorseshoe that Prez isat Best Unreliable and Not honest.  Here are my Screen Shots.

    I just got back my Modern tier books and none of my 9.6s had grader notes which sucks, because I am curious as to what prevented them from being 9.8s as I genuinely can't find a single flaw in any of them. 

    I have a question did you have CCS press them?  I have 15 out there now and I think I should have gone a different route than CCS for my first pressing of Moderns
