Avengers #4, TOS#39 and FF#4, it was a good delivery to pickup.

They were your first submissions? Wow, thought you would be an old pro by now.

My first submission was a train wreck, as outlined in the horror thread. Greggy kept on laughing at me (and still is).

 

Lessons learned:

1. I didn't know how to grade.

2. I was too naiive with eBay grading.

 

It was also my first submission that I confirmed comic-keys sold me restored goods...heck there were two other restored books in my collection.

 

I've grown up in both fronts...marginally.

[Aces]

Comics.

 

They all came back with grades.

 

Not if they have too much overhang.

 

My first was Sgt. Fury 13 8.5

[cd4ever]

Spider-Man #1 Platinum retailer variant - Two heavy creases top front right, thought it would come back 8.5, came in 9.0

 

Ultimate X-Men #1 - Glorious front cover, perfect eye appeal - hoped for 9.6 min, forgot to check back cover, two minor crease lines (barely visible), came in 8.5

I don't remember the books but it wasa bunch of bronze marvels that all came back 7.5-8.0.

 

I've learned quite a bit since then.

Marginally

 

Nap-time bltch!!!!

 

 

[blue808]

My first submission was about six years ago. I sent in one book, Incredible Hulk #181 from my OO collection. It came back CGC 9.6.

 

Unfortunately I sold it on ebay to someone in the UK for just under $2000. If I only knew ....

Just had an early lunch and the timing is just about right. You must have ESP or something contagious.

[eddly]

My first was

 

Incredible Hulk 105 9.4

Incredible Hulk 106 8.5

Incredible Hulk 107 9.0

 

They should have come back better, but I didn't package them very well. Lesson learned. Oh I sold them last month.

[Comicdey]

Xmen 109 9.6 White

Liberty Meadows #1 2nd print 9.8 White (thought it was a first)

ASM 300 9.6 White

 

other than that, a few SS books, and my latest is 15 issues currently in the cue.

[CJ]

Action 252 5.5 white pages

Sgt Fury 13 9.4 off white pages

Fantastic Four 48 9.0 white pages

[worldsbestcomics]

My first submission was for on-site grading at Wizard World Philly a few years ago. I had an X-Men 94 (9.2), Spidey 121 (9.2) & 122 (restored Comic-Keys) & 300 (restored color touch on cover) & 300 chrome (9.8,9.6,9.4), Black Venom 1 (9.8 & 9.6), Wolverine 145 Bone Claws 9.6, Amazing Adventures 15 & 16 9.6, and 10 or so other books that I can't remember.

[comicdonna]

Action Comics #27 CGC 6.5 Restored (purchased as Unrestored.

Action Comics #28 CGC 4.0 Universal (went nice with my #29 CGC 4.0 Universal)

 

I no longer have these books.

Nope, not at all. All of those books were purchased off the racks by me at least eleven years ago and placed in mylars with backing boards. I received two 9.9s, nineteen 9.8s and five 9.6s. All with white pages. I was and still am quite pleased. BTW... I didn't even know who Matt Nelson was at the time.
