Yikes! Shady.

I appreciate that. I think a few people are saying 1k. There's another outfit in Eugene, OR (PGX) that I could actually drive over and DROP OFF IN PERSON, but apparently they are not as sought after (respected) as CGC?

Thanks for switching to a friendly attitude.

See again, not friendly. I have thick enough skin, I just wish when people took time to type out responses to me it was maybe ABOUT THE SUBJECT! Not personal commentary. Maybe I'm asking too much? Haha

I see how with certain eyes it could be a compliment, but this is a forum about CGC and getting help/advice with CGC. His "compliment" notwithstanding, it didn't seem in the spirit of help regarding CGC, but more so a social commentary on my "retirement" even though I'm medically retired, not because I'm rich or anything. I still want HELP with CGC. I came here for noob help and advice, not necessarily for compliments. Ha!

That's kind of un unfriendly attitude toward a noob here, no? I still wanna get the most out of my collection, and I was told this was a friendly atmosphere.

I'm 56, so I kind of AM in my retirement years? Or at least almost.

REALLY? Wow. A grand. I'm not sure I have any of value that high at this point. I MIGHT! 1 or 2, not sure yet, still pricing, haven't looked at the collection for MANY YEARS! Why did you say "right now" $1k?

I find in my area (Spokane, WA) there aren't many opportunities to sell them to dealers.

TL;DR = 1. Which membership to CGC should I get? 2. What $$ value benchmark should I use to send books in to be graded? I am currently entering my entire collection into the Comic Base software application. I'm assuming I have about 1500 books (ish???). I have all eras from Silver to present, I may have a few Golden age as well. I collected, traded, bought, sold, and delighted over comics mainly in the 80s as a teen. But I haven't really done anything serious except buy a lot of current comics between say 2009 and 2014, and maybe a few since. Once I catalog them, I was thinking about joining up with CGC and sending in my most valuable books. I am looking for advice on which level of membership to do as well as what people think would be a good benchmark for sending books in to be graded. I was thinking of setting a dollar value mark. What do people think? $50? $100? What's a good mark to use to send book in to be graded. ThanX in advance to you all who offer advice on my questions.

I am a 100% noob (to CGC). I own a few CGC graded comics, but more importantly, in my collection I want to get some graded as well. Not sure of the best way to decide WHICH books to submit, so I'm going to dive right in... Any comments would be welcome.
