Yeah, I'm aware - was looking for more "Real world" confirmation.  

I don't post here often - wondering if this is normal - I sent in a sub under different categories: 2x Moderns, some economy, some Magazine Economy, some Magazine Modern on 10/12 of last year

One Modern came back in 5 days (!) 

zero movement on ALL the others, and its almost May '22 - is this the new normal?

There's several of them for sale on Ebay.  Put them on your watchlist and see how the sales turn out

Several?  I only see one graded Zen and one graded Omega.  Am I missing something?  Or are you talking raw?  I’m old to comics but new to grading so wasn’t sure if I’m missing subtext here?

That Purple will hurt the value. I don't think the signature caused the Purple label.

I meant to write Green Label.  What’s odd is that it’s hand #’d and I believe came that way as the limited edition…?

Not sure if this is the right section...  

I just got these back from CGC:

- Zen (1987) came back a 9.2 and 
- Omega # 1 (1988, Faust back-up story) Limited to 1000, signed (Purple label) came back a 9.0.

I know these are fairly rare, but also super niche in the collecting world - any thoughts?

Bumping for the above question.  I have a CGC 9.0 of the yellow bolt/signed edition to /1000… do people still want these?

I wish he wasnt asked to put his Ebay handle in this thread, I hope it doesnt come up if someone googled this thread on suspected buyers and or sellers, I really should have mentioned for it not to be posted, but maybe it can be deleted idk

Ooops. And here I am making things worse. I hereby retract my "49er Fans are Lame" but this in no way signifies a change in my belief structure.

I deleted my eBay handle from this thread.  I posted because I didn’t want to call out a buyer and seem like I was hiding anything but you’re right, I’d prefer not to be blocked on accident because someone gets confused.

and it’s any Seahawks fan’s birthright to hate my user name here.  I’d be disappointed if that weren’t the case.

No I do the same, what is your eBay store?

It's not a store - just my eBay account - (goofy name since 1998 - hence the lameness).

I'm 99.9% into sports cards and this thread mirrors everything happening in that hobby as well (insert long sigh).  At any rate, only my 5th blocked buyer on eBay:

caleb406merge2.0

Dude makes a best offer on a graded comic, I accept.  Says he cannot pay until Friday, thanks for the book, etc.  Friday comes and goes - I check in, Weekend comes and goes, Monday, Today - I check in... - finally I cancel and relist.

I've had people straight up ghost me.  I move on.  What irks me is asking for extra time, which I grant, THEN ghosting me on top of that.  What's weird is he has good feedback.  Am I the only one that pays for everything seconds after I buy?

Select comic/ magazine on line form, then select magazine, tick mail in to headquarters and also grading, select next and start typing Captain Britain in the title box and you should be away. 

Many thanks!!

Bumping this million year old thread for some info, hopefully...

I have a fairly sharp looking copy of Captain Britain #8 - when I sub am I choosing Magazine or Comic as the category.  It's a comic, obviously, but it is definitely magazine size.  I looked and I cannot figure it out.

Thanks in advance.

I really appreciate all the replies, fellas.  My first 3 subs came back and I feel like I've got a handle on where these land...

I'm new here  - I'm dusting off my 20+ year box of comics to grade and sell - I know ASM 300's are notorious for their rough cut edges - what am I looking at here grade-wise?  The comic is real crisp, no non-color breaking dents on the cover... really just that edge.  The most noticeable roughness is between the "0"s on the edge.... close up scan included.

Appreciate any feedback.

Awesome.  Thank you.  I'll do just that.

Bumping this million year old thread.  I have an ASM 300 - pristine, except for the chipping/rough edge as above.  I'm new to comics grading - though very old to collecting.  What kind of hit would this book take from a grader with the edge as it is above, if everything else looks good?
