CGC pickups

Dude I just watched a vid of a guy who sent in $100,000 worth of books to get graded to CGC… they are gone. And how do you even get insured for these things cuz they weren’t graded yet and a 9.6 to a 9.8 can be double the price, not that he had a bunch of moderns in his shipment but you get my meaning. Crazy.

Gone ?..?

Super impressive 9.2

She will be huge one day. She will show up in the MCU way down the line when we are all about 15 years older. Great book. Super jealous

9.4 is the best grade for normal humans who want a nice first app. You’ll bank off this. I have multiple She Hulk 1’s graded 9.4 they have tripled in price lately and I’m just waiting for that first trailer

Consider me normal then lol. It was on consignment at my LCS and no one was picking it up so I asked if they could give me a couple months to pay it off. Done deal. I don’t think this was pressed either. And it’s already increased 25%.

You take pictures and buy insurance on your shipment to The graders.

You also need to estimate the value when you submit the paperwork.

That’s the best you can do, I believe. At least it’s what I do.

Let me guess, this was it? hahha

My favorite youtube I saw this past month is the guy who had his AF 15 get a Action 1 Superman label and his Action 1 get a Spider-man label. Crazy.

I believe there is a follow up video that says it got resolved.

That is why I usually submit at shows. This way I talk to the person accepting my books and have signed proof that the books were taken from me by them. It has certainly been tough doing that this past year, though.

Don’t you have to use walkthrough only for books higher than 10k at cgc

See if you can count how many times that guy “sweeps” his hair with his hand. He needs to cut his hair, or he needs to learn to keep his hands off of his head. God damn. There’s another video of this guy where CGC bans him because of his incessant complaining about this or that. He’s like fingernails on a chalkboard…the dude makes me cringe with his whining.

:point_up_2: annoying is an understatement. I have a migraine after watching that 11 minute video.
Yea… the hair swipes, but also “so im like…” 80x. Cgc said this and im like… and im like… and im like. A true master of the English language.

Unfortunately, everything he tried to say was also true of that mickey mouse monopoly organization

The ‘like hair sweep’ guy was so worried about what would happen if his submission was lost, re: the value. That leads me to believe he understated his declaration values on his submission forms. Not something I would be happy to find out if that guy was subbing books for me, as a customer. Tsk tsk.

I just avoid Youtube altogether… it’s almost as big a cesspool as Facebook and Twitter…

Same here. Only thing I watch on YouTube is nature documentaries on the rare occasion.

I pretty much catch John Oliver (dude just cracks my shit up) for the most part and that’s seldom as I just forget…

Bought a collection from a guy in my neighborhood. The sandman, turtles, black panther and spawn are all from that collection. Still have about 1000 books and magazines to sort through. Really scored though! Anyways, they are all off to cgc please don’t lose them!

What did you pay for the collection, and how many books was in it? Condition?

$1800 for the 3000 books and magazines. Most of the comics are in really good condition, all bagged and boarded. The guy us a true collector (had lots of other stuff), just needed closet space. I also just pulled this out a minute ago.
