  1. If i do it, it'll be to get a "before" and "after" results for pressing. I just want to see if It makes a huge difference and hope that i can at least break even on the experiment.
  2. See! That’s why I’m here. To see what the more knowledgeable people thing. I’ve never thought of the makeup pad trick and didn’t know scanning and posting was an option. It’s as much an experiment for me to see the results of pressing as an investment thing but I would at least like to break even. So I’ll probably brush off the best one and scan a “before” pic. Probably #3 because I really like the cover. I have some credit so I’ll be using house money. thx for the input!
  3. I like the idea of the Mylar bags. Make little art pieces to display in my man cave.
  4. Yeah I like that issue too. I have some cgc credit and thought about submitting that one as an experiment since I’ve never owned any silver aged comics. They only cost me 5$ a piece (bought because they looked interesting) so I don’t have much into them but I saw that they fall into a different tier/cost because of age.
  5. Hmmm. I have a 150$ credit so it just may be worth the effort for 4 of them. That was really helpful. This may be my experiment with silver age comics to get an idea of what the benefit of pressing and the resulting grade.
  6. If they are hungry I have some moderns they can gnaw on. They might as well fill up a stomach instead of a landfill.
  7. Hello everyone! I got my hands on these at a parking lot sale for about 5$ a piece and want your opinion. Are they worth the expenditure of pressing/grading? I’ve submitted a few comics for either sig series or personal attachment but I’ve heard these old comics are viewed a little differently regarding condition. Any input is appreciated. Thx!
  8. Thanks for the advice. I took pics and will head there now.
  9. Hello people! I got my paws on Iron Man 2-7, 9 and am wondering if they are worth pressing and grading? I only paid about 5$ a piece (parking lot sale purchase) so I don’t have much into them. They aren’t destroyed or tore up but they do have wear. (I should have taken pictures). thanks for any input!
