I'd think the size of them would be a factor , i.e, are they small enough to be considered imperceptible? Sometimes if you take a scan of the comic, the light can reflect off it and it may show like a color breaking crease. Makes it a little easier to gauge the size of it. I'd think you'd have a shot at a 9.4 if all you have are 4-5 tiny NCBs Take as good as you can pics/scans and put them on the 'Spare A Grade' forum. You never know what else other eyes may pick up on, especially if you're considering submitting it.

9.0-9.2 esp 9.2 if the back can get cleaned up a bit

It just doesn't look as bright/sharp as a comic I'd expect to be mint, but there's not a lot of flaws I see. The corners are all rounded. 92 looks like it has a NCB crease or bend by the top staple on the front I could see a 8.5 I don't see them lower than an 8

In addition to ebay, you can go to watchcount.Com and use their sold items link to track ebay sales. They have a 'sold items' checkbook then to differentiate between sales vs listing which finished without a sale

There's a podcast called "Reggie Collects' where a lengthy interview with CGC folks was recently posted. This was briefly discussed there and said the same thing as Capra

make sure whatever payment you take clears in your bank account before shipping it out.

Welcome! Obviously there's Ebay/Paypal - though you deal with 13% fees between the both of them and all the risk of buyer scams is on you as well as possible state sales tax considerations. I have sold several small things that way - nothing on the magnitude of what those books would bring in (~ $2500-$3500 range). Personally I haven't run into any problems with those types of sales (up to $250 level). There's selling here on the boards. No fees that way but it certainly helps to have built up an 'online reputation' first. There are also consignment services like Comic Link/Comic Connect/Heritage etc who basically sell the book for you and have quite an amount of experience with expensive books. That's about a 10 % commission and relieves you of much of the scam risk as you are not the one selling the book. Those 3 are well known firms. I would suggest going to their web sites are reading up on their info Good luck on the car!!

1st instinct was 6.5-7.0

looks like several tics on spine plus a slight roll. I'd also think about 8.0

What about something like Marvel Team Up 1 where Spiderman saves an anonymous black woman. A couple of years later, after the actual intro of Misty Knight, they make mention, in the story that the anonymous woman from issue #3 was indeed Misty Knight

the last I read, they do not encapsulate the Treasury sized comics.

or go into your time machine & set the dials for a few weeks ago and buy ROKU

Well there's no guarantee the value is going to shoot up appreciably in a few years, especially if Walking Dead fades from the public consciousness. Although it helps if you bought them for cover price rather than buying someone elses 9.8s. My own opinion, w/o any research to back it up, is that individual sales would be better. You could look at how individual sales vs sets of other high profile books go on Ebay - e.g. Dark Knight Returns sold individually vs sets of 4

front LLC has that tiny tear and the 5th pic has some type of mark to the right of the staple. Don't know if that's ink or what. I'd think just that corner by itself is small enough to keep it at 9.8. Depends if that other issue is really an issue or not.

not a valuable issue - just wondering what the group thinks. One of my fav covers.

small tears around the staples, lower right corner is rounded with slight wear, upper left front corner has small mark as does lower left corner I'd guess around 9.0

Your best chance of getting replies would be to post pictures or scans of the entire front and back covers are close-ups of any problem areas. A 9.8 can have a flaw but that looks a little too big to still qualify for that IMO Welcome to the boards!

Prob a better home for this would be the Grading/Restoration forum When you say you expected a high grade - how high? Were you expecting 8.0+ and got a 2.0? Maybe someone made a typo entering in that info online. I'd suggest calling CGC and asking. If you had pics of what you submitted, you could post those here for opinions on what it would grade at.

the small tears by the bottom stale are all I can make out as flaws from those pics. Overstreet guide would lean me towards 9.6 though CGC grading isn't Overstreet.

Reminds me of a DC Presents 26 I had as far as that long horizontal crease on the cover. That was a 9.2 I'd guess 9.0-9.2

that's a fair number of creases on the back cover spine plus bottom left corner. I would say 6.0 as is and agree a press would def help you out

nice looking book. Some slight wear on the front side right hand corners. poss crease line on front ULC. Looks like top of back cover has some tanning or foxing I'll say 8.0 ... and welcome.

collected from the late 70's to late 80's starting as a young teenager so I was only buying what I wanted to read. Therefore, I've read them all and then put them in storage. I'd have to think about how many I pulled out of storage to read a 2nd time

Starting this in advance. Ebay feedback can also be looked under username 'csaag'. I've mostly bought on Ebay but as of this posting I've done ~a dozen recent sales of comics without issues.
