I'm surprised it is not 25 books minimum, but I'm cynical.

Since I can't predict what grade they might assign, I always use the approximate raw value from Covrprice.  Many people just use "$400"

Looks like CGC membership discounts apply on top of this… which makes it quite enticing. Guess I should wrangle up a vintage sub.
