This Week Back From CGC

Finally got my books back, from 6/29 invoice date.

 

Little disappointed in the 158 as there is now a non color breaking bend in the lower left corner that I know for certain was not there when I sent them in. Tried to scan just the corner, but, can't see it in the scan, because my scanner pretty well sucks. Not sure where it happened, but, the books were very well packed, so, I don't believe it happened in shipping. Overall I am pretty happy with this group of books.

Hulk #181

ASM #129

Thor #140

X-Men #50

SCHEDULED FOR GRADING!!! Yes! At last! Patience pays off :whee:

 

:banana:

 

What grades did you assign them?

 

Well :blush:

 

I submitted these shortly after I joined the boards. That being said...

 

I assigned Hulk #181 6.0-6.5 (low balled, actually hoping for 7.0 but BC was kinda dirty. Corners were nice and sharp though)

 

ASM #129 5.5-6.0 (never should have submitted it- live and learn. If it's lower I might sell it :o and try to upgrade)

 

Thor #140 9.4

 

X-men #50 9.2 (hoping for 9.4)

Obviously looking forward to the second two.

 

Just went to their site and they've been graded :whee:

 

Hulk #181 got the 6.0 I expected. Wonder what I should do with it hm

 

 

 

ASM #129 got 6.5- Kinda surprises me, but :takeit:

 

 

 

Thor got the 9.4 I expected. :acclaim:

 

 

 

:banana: X-Men #50 got 9.6 :banana: Times like this I like CPG better than OSPG

(shrug) I can't even remember who I bought it from. It was a mail order in the early 90's, that much I remember because I was still in my first marriage. I think it was from a place in Colorado so most likely it was Mile High. The only thing I'm sure of was that it was called NM and I paid $35, which was something like $10 over OSPG.

I would have to say this was probably my best purchase ever in terms of growth. I paid $120 for the Hulk #181 in '89 or '90 so at best I might have broke even, but I think that's being generous to myself. I have no idea what I paid for the ASM #129.

I bought the Thor book as a 9.4 two yrs ago

The X-Men alone makes me happy about this submission :luhv:

Congrats! :applause:

 

That X-men 50 is quite a score, especially for a a raw bought that long ago. Nothing better than getting those old araws graded that you "overpayed" for back in the day and now are worth 20 times what you paid.

 

I remember SEVERELY overpaying for my "MINT" Iron Fist 14 back in like 1992. Paid $129 when it guided for like $80-90. Graded 9.8w though a few months back :banana:
