My first submission

23 posts in this topic

Well, got my my first submission from CGC back today.

 

Uncanny X-men #21 -- 8.5

Thor 148 -- 9.0

 

Looks like I'm selling those suckers. And I'm getting the grading notes. I really thought Thor 148 was in the 9.4/9.6 range. Grrr.....

The first time is usually a shocker (disappointment) for most people I'd think...

 

Still. Not bad thumbsup2.gif

I submitted what I thought to be a NM+ copy of ASM 181 in my 1st submission. Came back 6.5

 

That was when I realized I should probably take a look at the back covers of the books I'm submitting.... tonofbricks.gif

 

 

There's a back cover ?? 893whatthe.gif

My first three books came back 9.8, 9.8 and a 9.6 respectively. They were ASM 529, New Avengers 23 sketch and ASM 344. The 529 I got for 5 bucks, the Avengers 10 and the ASM 4 bucks and has been signed by Erik Larsen.

 

Since then I have yet to submit anything...really gotta get on that. 893scratchchin-thumb.gif

My first three books-House of Secrets 92- 5.5, Giant Sized X-Men 1- 6.0, Incredible Hulk 181- 5.5 Qualified-Ugh! boo.gif Those first were a real eye opener and I spent way too much on those books for the grades received! It made me hone my grading and get into the details on the books. I then took a good range from 7.5-9.8 (my grades) and sent them in. They were all pretty close to my grades and I have gotten better (though I am just now refining my "fingercrease detection" skills! insane.gif) I have since submitted over 90 books on my own as part of my 300+ CGC'd collection and rarely am I blown out of the water anymore with grades received. Good times! thumbsup2.gif

My first CGC graded book was sent in by the buyer. I sold it as a 5.5 and CGC graded it 5.0.

 

I graded my first three subs:

 

9.4

9.2

9.0

 

They came back:

 

9.4

9.2

8.5

 

I was happy with that.

I guess that's just it. Live and learn. The person I bought the Thor from is a respected dealer. And they were suprised. But, what are ya going to do. Guess I have to improve my grading skills.
