NYComics Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Epting is awesome. If I can commission him again i will ask for the red skull. He drew one for my friend and he like went off on the book and got so into it. It is beautiful. I should ask him to scan it and post it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimik Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Roy's right...I need to look into registering myself as a charity. I think when you take into consideration your upper-level pricing, time saved, no slabbing fees, no shipping back and forth to CGC, I think you come out just fine. My WHAT??? See that 'Tec #294, the 9.6 one? Sold as a 9.0 for $35 when Guide was $42. The #396 and #397? Both sold for under Guide. WTF you talking 'bout, Willis? Let's look at this from a $$ perspective: 1) Cost to ship to CGC from UK = ~$60/30 books = $2/book 2) Grading cost for 30 under value fast track (which these qualified for and assuming you had others to submit) = $26.10 / book (with 10% discount) 3) Return shipping cost = ~$100/30 books = $3.33/book or lets say $4 rounded up (guessing on the high side due to increased weight and size of box) 4) Amount of time to pack books, fill in forms, receive box = 3 hours with beers x $30/hr wage = $90/30books = $3/book Total additional cost per book = $35.10 Assuming Nick's cost is what I paid, here is what his total cost per book would be: Detective Comics 394 VF/NM $35.00 + $35.10 = $70.10 Detective Comics 395 VF+ $85.00 + $35.10 = $120.10 Detective Comics 396 VF+ $28.00 + $35.10 = $63.10 Detective Comics 397 VF+ $50.00 + $35.10 = $85.10 Total in: $338.40 Here are the latest GPA recorded sales for these books in the grades I received: Detective Comics #394 9.6 - $375 in April 2008 Detective Comics #395 9.0 - $251 in Jan 2008 Detective Comics #396 8.5 - $36.88 in Feb 2004 ( Nick you would have gotten hosed on this one ) Detective Comics #397 9.2 - last 9.0 sold for $107.50 in Oct 2005 (last 9.2 sold for $51 in Sep 2002) Total estimated sales value: $770.38 Cheers for that, Ryan. Somehow it's made me feel both better and worse at the same time. Sorry, Nick. BTW, PM me a list of books you are posting in the VCC this weekend.
