My 15 Issues Back From CGC At Last. posted by Rockblazer

[CSJournals-migration]

82 WORKING DAYS.

 

Well my value submission made it back. They were a little behind their posted 75 days. Most of the comics 10 of 15 were high grade issues from Metropolis Comics. I purchased 8 of them as 9.6 and two were 9.4. The actual grades are as follows.

Boris Karloff issues:

36- 9.2

42- 9.2

45- 9.2

46- 9.6

47- 8.0

49- 9.2

50- 9.6

53- 9.4

Twilight Zone:

44- 8.5

Ripley's Believe it or Not:

44- 9.2

The 8.0 and 8.5 were the 9.4's.

A Twilight Zone 29 graded 9.0 from a local shop came back 9.2.

A Fantastic Voyage nn from the bargin bin of Collectors Comics came back 9.2. ( They seem to like that number ).

Many Ghosts of Dr. Graves 1 8.0 Ebay buy and a Ripley's True War Stories 1 6.0 Ebay buy.

Not spectacular buy ok for the collection. It did however get me on the next page ( Web page that is )at number 399 on the registry. I won't stay there for long but that's ok too. It also pushed me over 200 CGC books though. So a couple of personal milestones.

I was hoping my order might be coming home soon, but after seeing your turnaround times, I'm totally bummed now. BTW: Do you buy regularly from Metropolis? Do they typically over grade like that? I just ordered a book form them, but it is already graded. Was curious about a couple of raw books... Now I'm wondering?!?!

Well, I have bought a good number of books from them. Last time I did better on grading overall. Most of my 9.6's graded mostly 9.4 to 9.6. The 9.8 graded 9.0 though. I have fared better with Mile High Comics grading.None have come back less. Most have graded .5 to 1.0 over.
