Bratevaro Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 New booty Hi I am new here and was just wondering how does one know if a comic book is worth having it certified? Does it have to be a key comic or have a really high value? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it have to be a key comic or have a really high value? There's many answers for your question. Is it worth it to you to get it certified? It doesn't have to be a high dollar book. Are you planning to keep the book, or are you selling? Maybe you already know the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Fate'sFullHelmet Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 A few suggestions... If you know how to grade comic books, pick up a copy of the Overstreet Price Guide, and that will give you some idea of what your comics are worth in the grade you have them. If you don't know how to grade, take your comics to a reputable comic shop and they will give you an idea of their grade, and will also recommend whether to have them certified. The two most important benefits of certification are an expert(s)-assigned grade that just about everyone will accept and an assurance that the book has not had restoration work done to it. I feel that it is absolutely essential to have any major key book certified primarily for the latter reason...major keys are very valuable and important and therefore are that much more likely to have had restoration work done to them. Books that are not so valuable or important can still merit certification if they are in particularly high grade...it seems that even Booster Gold in 9.9 would command a decent price. Ultimately you have to consider whether the cost of certification and shipping will be worth it. Sending in a mid-grade $50 book is a waste of money. Generally the more valuable a book is the greater the benefit of having it certified. Personally I will not consider purchasing a very expensive book that is uncertified, no matter how good the deal may seem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have the scars from my first roasting. If you're serious, type the title and issue number of your comic into ebay and that will give you a good starting point to see if what you have is desirable, monetarily or otherwise. Good luck, hang in there, learn the rules of deportment and all will be well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The subsequent medication and counselling helped, though. porcupine48 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
