Had 2 economy subs received by CCS on 7/9. Updated to Verified by CGC on 10/24....

At the time I felt exactly the same. In retrospect though that's exactly why I think I liked last season so much. You could feel how desperate and trapped Rick and the group were with no way out of the situations they were in with the Negan clan. The best part for me was the reunion between Rick & Daryl (infamous bro hug) and it is really nice to see the good guys gaining ground again this season.

This is an ugly situation. I'd love to see the sellers original pics he provided to you prior to you purchasing to see if this was present or noticeable.

Thanks!

@wormboy Really nice score!

Thanks brother, doing my best to keep this thread on page 1.

A few more back from CGC today.... Only a couple left pending grading at CGC then will need to hunt for more.

Wow! Great score, big congratulations to both!

I haven't. Think there's around 200 or so books and with the current bid averages to 225 a book. So hard to estimate value imo without seeing in person unless you assign an average grade to all and look up one by one. The lister is fairly general with grades i.e. "Nice" could be a 3 or an 8. Wouldn't be surprised at it finishing 60-70k or so though. Will be fun to watch where this lands for sure!

Super interesting discussion and one I recently began to think about and begin planning for. I've always had a mix of graded and raw books with the majority being raw. I've decided to bite the bullet and started sending batches to CGC of books that I value in excess of $200. Aside from having a will, I'm providing my wife with contact info for 3 auction houses and would have her send to be auctioned directly as opposed to selling my collection outright to them or another 3rd party. Think this option would net her the most amount of money although would take a bit more time. Having them graded would obviously remove the subjectivity and potential for big price swings if she were to look to sell raw, and is the main reason I'm taking action now by getting them graded. I've also been slowly changing my collecting focusing a bit to focus on higher $$ investment key books as opposed to collecting full runs although this is difficult and I'm still focusing on a couple of runs. My game plan is to pear down from the thousands to a couple of hundred books over the next 5 or so years to limit the volume for her. I've actually given her my credentials here on the boards as well in the event she gets tripped up along the way. I'm 43 now so hopefully have a bit of time left here but I'm dealing with aging parents and all the issues that come with that and as a result of that things like this have been weighing on my mind a bit lately. Thanks for starting the thread as I've learned a few things as a result.

I did request however seller does not want to disclose the reserve. Couched it under the context of not being fair to others....

Came across this auction and while it looks like a really neat find looking at the current 40k bid and still yet to meet reserve was wondering what a decent FMV on this lot would be. Seller is obviously not a numerical grader but some do seem to be decent copies from the limited pictures they posted. I personally couldn't/wouldn't be a player on this but some folks are taking a big leap of faith on this one. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Very-Large-Collection-of-Golden-Age-Comics-Batman-Superman-Action-Detective-Plus-/302486250388?hash=item466d95e394:g:-B0AAOSwrWZZ4Cwd

Love that amazing ghost stories 14, nice CA by Matt Baker. Sweet sub, hope it turns out well.

Congrats on the grade, great book!

Very cool, didn't see that before. I have a FF 14 that's at CGC with a label notation "decapitation panels" haven't seen those yet. Need to get some of the photocopied issues and flip through them in more detail.

That's a beaut!
