Payment: Check / Bank wire preferred. Other payment terms available. Shipping: Certified books, shipping is included FREE within North America, ROW we split it. Raw books, include $10 for shipping within North America. ROW I will split with interested parties.  Who wins: Time stamp seals the deal as to who wins regardless of the form of communication (including PM, in the thread, text or phone conversation). A negotiation is not a deal until both sides have agreed on terms. If there is an unconditional posted (or communicated) it will trump all negotiations unless we have already both agreed to terms before the was posted. In that case, the will have been in vain. Except that it will give you street cred and look cool to passers by. No House Of Shame or Probationary members or any others of ill repute. I reserve the right to choose who I sell to. Returns: I am considered a very good grader among my peers ( Here is a link to my kudos thread ) but since even CGC is inconsistent I will not guarantee a CGC grade. I will guarantee to be within one grade increment in either direction - so if I am calling the book a 9.4 it could go 9.2 or 9.6. If it falls outside of those parameters (and it does happen that they go in both directions), I will offer a refund. But I don't expect anyone to complain if I undergraded it. I will accept returns if item is otherwise not as described or shown. Consider all books pressed. Pricing: I try to price books close to fair market value. I am open to offers but it's not very likely I'm going to be accepting offers at 30% off fair market value.

Trouble maker.

Nah. You're too nice in this case. Helping would be pointing out a mistake or a misunderstanding to help you out. I think there are too many people lately who just feel the need to police this place and reporting or shutting down a great selling thread like yours does a disservice to the entire place. Great books and good luck!

Unfortunately, some boardies take great pride in hitting the 'notify moderator' button rather than just offer a supportive post to make this place better.

There was also a $138K copy on Heritage 2 months ago. What this shows is that the floor seems to be the $90K range where it has been for a year now, and that the ceiling in the $150K range for premium copies such as the Sucha News. Sucha copies in general seem to usually fetch premiums and a 20-30% range for non-Pedigree copies seems to be right in the range of fluctuation for high grade Bronze where people weight page quality and production quality much more than SA or GA books.

But there's no way to know what buyers think of the grades. It's a moot point. If the dealer sells a book in X dollars in grade Y, that's all that matters. Well, then guess who was right. Right or wrong is not determined by whether a venture starts or not. You've been trolling me with negative posts and disparaging comments FOR YEARS. I haven't trolled you, ever. Can you please stop replying to me? Thanks.

This is true BUT Mechanical Errors should not be delayed. I don't disagree with you. In fact, fixing your own mistakes SHOULD be a priority in any customer service business. Slow CGC turnaround times are THE sign of the apocalypse. Let's not lose our heads now. I didn't say that, dork. I said the world is broken, meaning NOTHING works the way it used to or the way it should work. In the string of things that need to go right through the entire process in something as niche as certification, everything starting from shipping through the certification process and right back through shipping again is broken. The are a million reasons why - supply chain issues, rising costs, lack of good help to be found, nobody cares anymore - you name it and every step of the way there are problems. The certification business is just one example but it's everywhere. My comment wasn't specifically about CGC. It was about how the world is truly broken.

Also good to remember that those us submitting MEs are ALSO paying customers for CGC's other services. So good customer service goes a long way. They're behind in everything. Where Walk Through books used to take one day, in and out like an actual 'walk through' service should - maybe 2 - 3 days if they were busy, they don't even open Walk Through boxes for a couple of days now. The world is truly broken and it's not getting fixed any time soon.

I'm going to close this thread up and move these books to other venues. If anyone is interested, feel free to make me an offer via PM. I won't get offended.

I tried to create something similar over a decade ago and was working wwith George from GPA to get it off the ground. I suggested it on this forum. The general gist of the idea was a "GPA for raw books" whereby that who use barcode scanners (or similar) for their inventory would submit sales data through an interface and GPA would compile the sales and publish them in much the same way they do for CGC graded books. Eventually, it would be populated with enough data to create a live, online guide just like GPA. The idea got crushed for various reasons. Some people believed that because raw grading wasn't standardized it wouldn't work - I disagreed and argued that the grades didn't need to be standardized as long as people THOUGHT the books they were buying were the grades as they were being advertised. Others thought it was too much work. Some just don't like me so they oppose everything I think is a good idea. Ultimately, it never got off the ground.

I want to state that I've priced these to the best of my ability but some books don't have a lot of recent market data and so if there's a book you're interested in and you feel my price is out of whack, I'm easy to talk to and wide open to offers. I won't get offended. Thanks for looking!

You want those Byrne issues, don't you? That is actually it for now. I should have another batch of fresh books in a few days.
