C2E2 CGC Grades Are In For Pedigree Comics’ May Grand Auction!

[Captain Tripps]

The high grade CGC certified comic books are continuing to come in for Pedigree Comics’ upcoming Grand Auction, scheduled to begin in just over one (1) week on the night of Monday, May 7th, 2012 and last for ten (10) days until the night of Thursday, May 17th. The auction will have a few hundred choice high grade CGC certified Marvels from the Silver and Bronze Ages plus a new consignment of high grade CGC Signature SERIES books signed by Marvel icon Stan Lee and a brand new group of high grade Silver Age DC’s from the Bogota Collection. The sooner you consign your books the more exposure and press they will receive. Pedigree aggressively promotes and advertizes each Grand Auction on many online sites and trade publications and we also send periodic newsletters to all of our over 18,000 customers announcing the individual auction items. There is no Buyers Premium on any of the lots in the auction and most of the books will have no reserve. Every book is CGC graded and the minimum bid is only $100. You can check out the Auction Preview right now at www.PedigreeComics.com.

 

The CGC grades are in on the incredible group of over 40 ultra high grade Silver Age Marvels from the recent C2E2 show in Chicago two weeks ago.

Consignors maximize their profits selling in Pedigree’s Grand Auctions, more so than on any other auction site or auction house. We do not charge a Buyers Premium, an amount that most bidders take into consideration when bidding in other sites (the bidders simply deduct that Buyers Premium amount from their final bidding price, meaning less $$ to the consignor and more to the auction site). The higher the value of your book(s) that sell in a Grand Auction, the more $$ you take home under Pedigree Comics’ Climbing Scale. We consistently set new sales records for Silver and Bronze Age comics in each Grand Auction and on our regular site inventory. Grand Auctions are unique and exciting, with new and diversified, top-rated CGC material in each event. Why settle for less by consigning with someone else?

 

Prospective consignors can also upload their own scans, item information, descriptions and reserve amounts for the May Grand Auction by utilizing the Automated Consignment System. It is actually very easy and fun to do. Just register onto the site, click "Customer Page" under "Your Account" and then click "Consignments" (under "Auctions"). You will then be able to enter the Pedigree Comics Consignment Management System and upload your own CGC certified books and magazines. We will receive an email notification automatically once you have uploaded the information and we will then review the information imparted for accuracy. The item(s) will then be added to the May Grand Auction to be bid on. You will be amazed how simple it is to utilize the Automated Consignment System.
