GRADE IS IN!-Shock Suspenstories #6
comicginger1789 replied to nebyort's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
I am also at 3.0 but would not be surprised if a GA bump happened and it got 3.5. -
PGM - Daredevil 115
comicginger1789 replied to grendelbo's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
5.0 with a 5.5 in the cards after some love -
PGM Ms Marvel 18
comicginger1789 replied to comicginger1789's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
Thanks all! I sold it as is...if it had a shot at 9.0 or better I was going to grade but alas, I too felt the fingerprint would keep it from that range or better. -
PGM Strange Tales 110
comicginger1789 replied to Rhymenoceros's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
I agree. The fanned pages don't bother me personally and I think with them 4.5-5.0 seems likely WIthout them? Book could creep into 5.5 or so territory. I mean I can see risking if selling but if I owned this book I would slab as is and love as is (the page fanning doesn't bother me at all) -
PGM Worlds Finest 112
comicginger1789 replied to Courageous Cat's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
I'll go lower, 5.0-5.5. Heavy crease, plus some spine ticks plus what appears sun shade/shadow to top edge. All of those ding it harder than one might like given the strong structure of the book. -
P.G.M Vault of Horror 38
comicginger1789 replied to goldenacase's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
I am at 3.0-3.5 but again, a 4.0 would not shock me. Sucks there is writing on it but it is kind of a neat story? Maybe? A kid practicing his right angled triangles for math class? -
PGM Batman #251 - The Grade is In!!!
comicginger1789 replied to Odda's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
If that book isn't 8.5-9.0 I don't know what is. -
Please grade this Crime Mysteries #3!
comicginger1789 replied to Point Five's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
I am tempted to say 3.5 but there is the GA bump (for me anyways) as I am either spot on or low EVERY TIME I grade a 50s books. Thus, I shall say 4.0 and a 4.5 would not shock me. 5.0 seems a bit too generous even for this era. -
PGM Amazing Spider-Man 210
comicginger1789 replied to alexml.'s topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
7.5-8.0 from the spine ticks. A press might guarantee 8.0 happens. 8.5 would be a stretch IMO. Again all of this assumes the back looks decent. Could very well fall lower if flaws are present there. -
I am also of the 5.5-6.0 camp, would not be surprised with 6.0 at all.

P.G.M Green Lantern 56
comicginger1789 replied to goldenacase's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
9.0 from me, mayyybeeee 9.2 Def some spine dings but overall very minimal. Tough one to get this nice with that blackground. -
PGM DD #6 - GRADE IS IN!
comicginger1789 replied to Math Teacher's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
I’ll jump on the 7.0/7.5 train wooo woooo -
PGM Marvel GI Joe 1
comicginger1789 replied to malachirobertson's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
Mine has similar yellow staining although mine is along the top edge on the back. Yours looks a bit worse than mines and I’ve always considered my raw copy to be in the 8.0-8.5 range. So 7.0-7.5 -
I also would not be surprised with 6.5-7.0 for a grade on it. Super sharp colour and a bit of noticeable spine wear.

Complimentary not to be sold printed on cover
comicginger1789 replied to CDorin's topic in Bronze Age Comic Books
I've always assumed these were just stamped on there by some place back the day as part of a giveaway? Perhaps comic shops or newsstands or someplace ordered them as giveaways? Maybe Marvel donated them to a school or library or something and they were stamped as such? I don't have any like this personally but I know I have a couple labelled as File Copies Do Not Sell...I'll have to dig those out. Again, these are different but kind of the same premise...given out and stamped as such so as not to be sold. As for demand, I mean I picked up the issues I have for dollars because people viewed the stamps as negative. I thought they were fun so I picked them up but I would not say there is a huge market for them, at least not one I am aware of. -
PGM Ms Marvel 18
comicginger1789 replied to comicginger1789's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
No but i have heard of and shall try! -
Nice looking book. Darn fingerprint! I will gladly take hints to remove if anyone has any. Or if It’s doomed to exist there forever, where do you think it puts the grade for this one. Thanks!

Feedback requested about the CGC hosted grading contests.
comicginger1789 replied to CGC Mike's topic in Comics General
Yeah something like that. I always just enjoyed last grading contests because everyone donated as this was part of the entry fee to play. Usually such an entry fee deterred people who did not want to enter a donation and we had 150-200 or so playing. But at more than that I feel you lose that aspect of people who want to donate.
