  1. Hi all, I just got the grades back from CGC on my rare J.Scott Campbell Variants. Both came in as 9.8's and are yellow label with Campbell signature series. The Uncanny X-Men 510 variant has sold for $13,000 in the past and there are only four 9.8 yellow labels in existence. The Black Panther 1 (2009) with Suri on the cover (predates Black Panther 5 (2009) her first appearance has gone for $8,000. I am wondering if I should run an auction on Ebay or go to a more formal auction house. Any advice would be much appreciated. Below are pictures of the books before I got them cleaned and pressed, signed and graded. Side Note: I am thinking if I time the Black Panther with the first trailer coming out that might boost the sale) I want to sell these books to finance a nice X-Men 1 for my collection.
  2. Alright sounds good. Using magnification on the spine can drive you nuts too.
  3. I know for coins it's five times mag. I wanted to know for grading my own books before sending them in.
  4. Does anyone know what level of magnification CGC uses for grading? Ie, 5X, 10X
  5. @ADAMANTIUMYes, I got them pressed. I will be selling these to fund my bigger purchases for my X-Men collection. I am collecting all Mutant first appearances so I have some big boy books to pay for.
  6. Hi All, Brady Here. I signed up here awhile back but I don't think I posted much. Anyways, I just did the J.Scott Campbell signing for these books below. Still waiting on grades but I am very excited!
  7. I set a goal 6 months ago of getting GSXM1, X-Men 94, and X-Men 101. I acheived that but got them all in slabs at 6.0. Now I want a high grade for each and a lower grade for each. GSXM1 might be out of reach for me. That book is white hot right now. 101 has cooled down even before the next Phoenix movie. Might be a good tme for that.
  8. Greetings all, I am pretty new to grading my own books. I bought two raw 137's and have looked at several online. This square bound book seems to always have issues with the staples showing on the back cover. I have noticed this on CGC 9.8's too. A lot of times there appears to be some black marks around the staples. Has anyone noticed this? Is this a universal defect that can't be avoided?
