  1. You should definitely Google or search cgcs home page, as I know they grade older concert posters, but to what extent idk. Whether modern or new? Or how they classify what to slab, short answer is yes though.
  2. I still somewhat get that at the LCS, I more get it here when people are willing. I'm still a bottom feeder trying to build a base, price line or otherwise, in the end I'm thankful for all stories told. Been a lot of Faithful boardies!
  3. Probably in the "mecha??" she's got that going for her since this gamestop variant, I had two copies, and yet it still reminds me of Super Troopers VR Brings back fond memories with my brother
  4. Picked up the exiles, been on sort of a Valkyrie kick, new hero of the character first cover and first appearance.
  5. I like this cover a lot. Razza at its finest celebration 🥳
  6. Now that I understood 😂 I'm not perfect guys, I guess kav used to point that out all the time haha 😂 but I'll get by somehow someway serenity now
  7. Meaning my broke arse can't afford to be "selective" when it comes to newsstands If it helps I realize he's saying "less available" wasn't my underlying point though.
  8. I'm glad there have been opportunities, those are the ones I'm reluctant to obtain due to price of inability in the wild, but I'm glad you find enough to be selective!
  9. It will be It does take time, a long one sometimes, but @wytshus will Lord willing "like" your post to give you a reaction once done so that you don't have to keep too hard of tabs.
  10. I understood And appreciate your reply... I knew it was rubber maid, or hit the road jack. It's always the thoughtful response that is appreciated 🤠 thanks for taking the time I hoped to God there was a baseline, but markets are markets.
  11. I know right? And then some sell higher when there are cheaper listed. I'm not sure if it's up to no good, or I'm basing the line on my own value. It's where the GPA helps with analysis, but even then I have to wonder, how close can they truly approximate?
  12. If this thread is open to giving market advice? I'll pose a question, not starting another thread 😂 The fact that cgc went up twice last year and once the year before? That considered... I remember bargain based slabs being blown out for $25 before eBay taxes etc. What is the baseline now? That er um costs went up? I sent in commons at first hint of price increase, and hoped the baseline would help;?! Made it before the next two price increases... Its a general thought that may be more up @valiantman alley with statistics, and if no one instantly knows I'm ok being told to take a hike it was just a thought I had, knowing things like star wars dark empire #2 still sells for $20 at auction, that's some rubber meet road.
  13. Hmmmm that is a tough. A lot to go into. I'm not sure you would have a lot of 9,8's if it's your childhood collection. They might be high-grade but not specifically 9.8 without a press, which is an added cost, but again, also doesn't always guarantee anything. That said, there is such a thing as a certain pin point grade that you can send in and if it doesn't grade that or higher, cgc will slab the qualifiers for less send back the rejects. That's called a prescreen and has a 25 book minimum. No THAT said for moderns at $25 a book that's a lot of dough for a 25 book min. To me I'd use your eye and try to find a small batch that you find pleasing and send in a test few. If you're familiar enough with grading, the costs should juve, and yet costs went up twice already last year, that is the rub. It's been a tough market.
