2 Great New High Grade Consignments in Pedigree Comics’ September Grand Auction!

[Captain Tripps]

It is almost time for Pedigree Comics’ September Grand Auction. Slated to begin in just over one week, on the night of Saturday, September 22nd, 2012 and last for ten (10) days until the evening of Tuesday, October 2nd, this live, online event is shaping up to be Pedigree’s best auction of the year and will have over 400 choice high grade CGC certified Marvels and DC’s from the Silver and Bronze Ages, including many key and first appearance issues, plus books from many other genres and publishers. There is no Buyers Premium on any of the lots in the auction and almost EVERY book (over 95%) will be listed without a reserve. Each book is CGC graded and the minimum bid is only $100. You can view over 300 books in the Auction Preview right now at www.PedigreeComics.com under the Grand Auctions banner.

Consignors maximize their profits selling in our 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 September 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 September Grand Auction to be bid on. You will be amazed how simple it is to utilize the Automated Consignment System.
