Maximum Carnage Acclaim 1994 0

[AlfredC]

Hello everyone! I am not a comic book collector, but somehow, I managed to keep a Comic book that I received free in the mail back in 1994. See the comic book picture. I have only opened it once to see its condition. No folds, no tears, and it appears to be in good condition. I am wondering what something like would be worth and if I should go about getting it graded professionally. If so, what are the steps? Anything to help this "Novice" Collector would be a great help. Thank you!

I'd recommend that you send it to @mycomicshop and let them sell it for you in an auction.  It looks like they got $460 for a mid-grade copy recently: https://www.ebay.com/itm/133771829021

Hard to really tell from a single picture like this but if this book is in high grade your best bet is sending it in for grading. The last 9.8 sold for $4500 but that was back in Mar 2020 at the start of the pandemic… prices on all books are much higher now than they were then. There’s another area on the boards with grading help called can you spare a grade, you can post there to get a better idea of grade - they’ll require better pictures though. If you just need/want quick cash selling raw is always an option too,

Would the seller send the book to CGC and then CGC sends the slabbed book to you?

Some people do that. Requires a bit more coordination and communication with CGC and with us, so that CGC knows to ship it to us, and we know what it is and who it belongs to when we get it.

It can be simpler to just send the raw book to us and let us handle the submission, particularly if you don't already have a CGC account and aren't already an experienced submitter. Consignors who submit to CGC through us get the benefit of our submission discount too.
