Hello @TimboIV, thank you for contacting CGC. The first step to submit would become a member with Collector's Society, you may join here: Join CGC Today! Grading fees start at $24.00 per book for a modern age book (1975 to present) and $35.00 per book for vintage books published prior to 1975.  Each of these service levels provides up to $400.00 insurance per item.  The fee per book goes up from there depending on the declared/insured value for the item regardless of the comic age. You can find all of our grading fees as well as the current turnaround time for each tier on our website here: CGC Services & Fees | CGC (cgccomics.com). From there, just follow the simple steps outlined on our website here to sign up for membership and start submitting: How to Submit | CGC (cgccomics.com)

As for valuing your comic, the value we ask for is an insurance value, the amount you would feel comfortable with in terms of a replacement value if the book was lost or damaged. We encourage you to be conservative as we do not reimburse if it has been over-valued. Each tier of service covers up to a maximum specified insurance level, select the tier of service which will accommodate the declared value for your item. Here are a couple of good links to help determine the potential value of your Amazing Spider-Man #300:
