Better pictures...my scanner produces really crappy images, so I am relegated to my phone...which is, well, ok. Lighting is tough. Someone should start a thread on shooting graded comics. I think you probably need a light box and a polarizer...but I digress.

Hello. Something for medium and low budgets here. You may have seen my other thread where I sold a 9.6 copy. I still have 4 left in that grade. Message if interested. Featured here though are two lower grade copies. CGC 9.4 book. Cert 1300743009. Grading notes: Very light spine stress lines, very light wear full right of front cover breaks color. $190 CGC 8.5 book. Cert 13007430015 Grading Notes: Light wear left bottom of back cover, light, multiple stain top of whole book $90 First gets the book (or books if you want them both). Shipping is USPS priority...$12 for a single book...but if you want both...same...$12 Payment via Paypal only Allow 3 days after payment for book to be sent.

Question is...when is the right time to sell this book? My copy is in ~6.0...maybe 7.0. I am not interested in holding forever.

Those tears really hurt this book. I'd say 5ish. No more though.

I would not be as hard on this one. I think after C&P...this book might make 8 or even 8.5. The only spine stress that would still be there is the one at the marvel banner. But as is...yeah...probably 7.0. My two cents.

Hi...I just got a 9.8 back from CGC on this book, so, I am getting rid of this one on eBay. Dr. Strange #1 CGC 9.6. Cert #0789602014

Try this link...that one above didn't work. Eternals #1 CGC 9.6

I recently had a number of these graded. Just put this one on eBay last night. Eternals #1 in CGC 9.6 OW/W. I have multiples of this book in grades from 8.5 to 9.8. This one is just the first! Thanks

Pressing would take care of the back spine...pretty sure. The major issue is the smudge. I wonder if that can be addressed at all with any dry cleaning?. I am going to guess at an 7.5-8.0

I would say a solid 6...maybe 6.5 but no higher. 5.5 seems too low.

I would argue that this would get a higher grade than 7.0 with a press and a little minor cleaning (which CCS will do). Those color break won't come out, but some of those flaws on the back cover will go away. I think 7.5 would not be a stretch after a visit to CCS.

For those who are willing to pay a premium for what someone decides is a 9.61 vs. a 9.62. Or a 7.6 vs. a 7.7. Ridiculous...IMHO. Essentially this is putting comics on a 1000 point grading scale...

Love the three olive martini! I'll need to check this restaurant out. I only went to SDCC once...it was fun, but it was in 2006 when things were starting to go toward pop culture and away from comics. Highlight was meeting Ray Harryhausen and getting his auto. Loved perusing this thread and seeing all your stuff. Great collection!

Never mind! Figured it out. I haven't been here since the boards were updated...

What did I miss?? My Heritage login just worked here? It's been a while so I must have missed something. My computer autofilled my Heritage user and password when I just logged in. It seems to have worked. What the heck??

$34 for a brittle partial Flash #101 cover? I am curious what people think this sale on here. I can't say I would have bought this cover...but maybe if you had a coverless copy, this is better than nothing.
