gadzukes Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 It achieved a "moderate" resto label instead of an "extensive" so I was pretty happy about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkkiller Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 (edited) I am looking to have a book signed and graded, the book is pretty beat up and I would like to know how the process works, Does it cost more for a restoration? Depending on the book is it worth it? Help would be nice Edited May 8, 2013 by Mkkiller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comeaux Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I’ve submitted a few moderns before but this was my first Silver/Bronze submission that I just got back from CGC yesterday. Nothing really high grade but some pretty cool books. These Iphone pics are not very good as I took them at an angle to reduce light reflection. I was really happy with this Captain America #119 … purchased raw from Bedrock at the Wizard Con in NOLA for a great price! I’m working on issues #100 to #200 and this is a sweet “white page” addition. Nice copy of Iron Fist #1 purchased from cdfever for $55 Invaders #5 purchased from a fellow boardie here ! Captain America #110 purchased from a fellow boardie … possibly could have been a 9.0/9.2 Low grade Avengers #5 purchased from a fellow boardie for a good price ! Low grade Batman purchased from Mark (kramerica) for $35 … thanks Mark ! (thumbs u Strange Adventures #119 purchased for $10 from Ray O’gara (gmci2112) who was the boardie here that was tragically murdered in November of last year. This was the only book I ever purchased from Ray but through the process of this one transaction I had great conversation with him about his (and my) adoration for the band “RUSH” … hence the “2112” in his CGC username. What a great person and I’m honored to have this book he sold me. Rest in peace Ray … I know from our chats that you were a genuinely awesome human being.

Praxis52 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Fresh from CGC via Desert Wind (WonderCon 2013) Signed by Stan Lee, Dan Slott, Mark Waid, Len Wein, J. M. DeMatteis, Humberto Ramos, Todd Nauck, Edgar Delgado & Victor Olazaba. Took 2 days, long lines & countless hours to get these sigs. But I believe it was totally worth it!
