This is the wrong forum for this.  Re-post in the newbie forum:

https://boards.cgccomics.com/forum/93-newbie-comic-collecting-questions/

Also, people like nice pictures and specifics of what you have, condition, and if there are any big keys like Amazing Fantasy 15, that one is popular and you will get much assistance.

Hi West,

welcome to the CGC forum.

If possible post pics of some books, and do not be surprised if the books are no where near 9.9 or 10.0 as that is extremely rare even for brand new just purchased and never read comics.

But they are in the original bags they came in.  Why won't they get 10.0 or better?

i'll play along

the "original" bags they came in degrade over very little time and that degradation leaves an oily residue on the books that can only be removed completely with a chemical cleaning that ultimately leads to a restored CGC label.
