  1. Several others were slabbed and cgc graded. Here's the link to the PEP22 https://www.comicconnect.com/bookDetail.php?id=788075
  2. Now at auction. Go to www.comicconnect.com and see how high Pep 22 goes!
  3. Hey all! After a wild ride I chose to work with Vincent at ComicConnect. I just felt he was the man I wanted to wok with. Very accommodating and fair. The collection goes up for auction this winter.
  4. No, I misspoke on that. I need an expert to see them before I say anymore about that. But at this point everyone is an expert
  5. Heritage reassured me the little nick did not devalue the comic that much if not at all. It really comes down to if the staple can reattach to the paper without using an adhesive.
  6. I wish I would have done nothing and just had someone come and see me. I nicked a corner off of Pep22 trying to bag and board. These are old and brittle and too thick for even the golden bags. Live and learn. I got Heritage wanting more pics of Pep22, which I have provided for them, and they are willing to fly out to see them. I wish I did nothing and just had an expert come and see these things.
  7. I appreciate everyone's insights. I have been pretty obsessed with learning about these comics. I'm going to take a couple days break from them and give a couple people a call on Friday. Thank you all.
  8. To be clear... this entire collection just fell in my lap. They have been sitting around untouched for over 40 years. I have been studying, came to this forum, listening to your advice, and have been on the phone with people. I went zero to 60 in four days.
  9. Thank you revat. I didn't think about the tax part.
  10. This was useful information. Thank you Lions Den.
  11. Interesting, and I was feeling good about comiclink. Thank you Henry for giving me more to think about.
  12. Does anyone know someone who can take this collection off of my hands for a fair price? I'm considering finding a buyer as is without me going through all of the work to get top dollar. I can meet in Portland or Seattle this week. I can meet in Phoenix next week. Or possibly meet at the San Diego Comic Con. Or should I just bring it Heritage or Comic Connect? I need to get these in front of someone who can pay the value and is excited to have these comics.
  13. No one is really sure who's they are. My grandmother passed and they were either her dad's or from an uncle. Most look never read if that's what you are wondering. They are just old and have been sitting for years.
  14. Who has an estimated value of what this 40 book collection is worth? Let's say the unauthorized grade of the entire collection is a 5.
  15. Great points Bomber-Bob. If I send to CGC now I will have them sent to my parent's house in USA. So I understand not all CGC authorized deals are the same, but don't they have to have a record of competency in order to keep their CGC authorized deal?
  16. Thank you bc, I did find that link prior to posting my question. It is very well described and made me feel I could do the shipping myself. Still scary though. pemart1966 I took an initial look at the comics using sites, and ebay and low end a few are selling for a couple hundred bucks. High end one sold for $50,000 eight years ago. Not sure I'm ready to touch them more or to reveal their names yet. Suggestions? Ok, I will take some pics tomorrow. I have to go now to a family get together. Stay tuned. Thank you.

  18. Hello fast eddie! I will be in Vancouver, WA for another week. Then Phoenix, AZ until August 16th before heading back to China.
  19. Hello! I have recently inherited some pretty cool comics. I am just learning about the CGC and about comic grading, slabbing, etc. I think I want to have them professionally graded and slabbed. I understand the process for the most part. I think I want to sell. I am nervous send them in the mail. I understand there are CGC authorized peoople in my area. Should I find a trusted CGC person to do this sending off for me, or should I give this a go myself? I also understand I could meet a CGC person at a comic con, but I think this only saves me shipping costs? What are your thoughts, and advise?
