Any thoughts on submitting a module or supplement to CGC for grading? I emailed and asked. They said I could send something in, and be charged, to find out. (basically)

I have thought about it, they have graded Dragon #1 before, I know this because it is in the census.  I do a lot of business with those guys for comics, over $22,000 last year alone. CGC grading has taken over the collectable comic market. If they agree to do modules and supplements then watch out!!

you paid them $22,000 to grade your comics?! wow.

I definitely should have finished college instead of becoming a mechanic...

That's a whole bunch of comic books, probably around 750 of them if I had to guess

I am guessing there are people who make a living buying high-grade comics who then have them graded and re-sell them.  On most all my comic listings I expressly make statements about their condition which give these kinds of buyers pause.  They have to be picky, and before I made these kind of statements I had some "near mint" items returned because they weren't near mint enough for them to make a profit.   :?


Truth is worth finding and life is too short to work for money.

I have a comic store, we grade comics all the time; there is a large market for nice key comics.
