I won't have these books back for another week or two, but I just got the grades online for a couple of early April submissions. I obviously still have some work to do on my grading skills as the majority of these books came in lower than expected. I was spot on on a few but the majority were .5 to 1.0 lower in grade than I had predicted. :P

 

The highlights of these submissions:

 

1) Magic Comics #19 CGC 4.0 (only the 2nd copy ever graded...1st was the Mile High copy) (nailed this one)

 

2) Marvel Spotlight #5 (1st Ghost Rider) CGC 6.5 and CGC 6.0. I'll be selling the 6.0 copy.

 

3) Conan the Barbarian #3 CGC 6.0 Double Cover

 

4) Strange Tales #135 CGC 8.0 (1st Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD)

 

5) Strange Tales #138 CGC 9.2 (guessed 9.4 on this one)

 

6) Incredible Hulk #4 CGC 3.5

 

7) Wonder Woman #205 CGC 7.5 Double Cover

 

But this is the one that made the whole submission very worth while..... :banana:

 

8) Amazing Spider-Man Annual #7 CGC 9.8! :o (ties with one other copy for top census out of 102 copies submitted) (I had guessed 9.4 on this one)

Just got my restored copy of Daredevil #1 back from CGC after restoration by Matt Nelson at Classics Incorporated. Matt had estimated an 8.0 MP grade but it only came back a 7.0 MP. :P Here are before and after pics of the front and back covers:

The restoration included color touch, pieces added, tear seals and cleaning. I'm still pretty happy with the book although I wish had gotten the 8.0 that Matt predicted.

CGC seems to be harsh (perhaps needlessly) on restored books... most people I know would give that book an 8.0 given the pics you posted.. Very nice book!
