SOLICITING THOUGHTS ON CGC SERVICES.

1 Upvotes

Just curious if there is a general opinion on the cleaning services that CGC provides. Are they on par with, worse, better than another party? My concern is that if you send them in for those services do they genuinely try attain the highest grade for you possible. Per some suggestions on prior questions about comic beautification on here I have tried educating myself on it and watched some videos and done some reading and I have noticed that the “masters” of the art repeat their processes and steps quite a bit in pursuit of the best results. From the mass production philosophy they seem to take a on cranking out grades and slabs, I don’t see CGC dedicating the same amount of effort. Perhaps if I was a $300 dollar a year premium account holder…but I ain’t!!!

Is a 9.8 possible or should I just leave it in the old label? Thank you for any advice

Within my collection, I have a bunch of the 1979 Micronauts issues, all in high grade condition. The only 2 keys are #1 & #8, so I’m wondering whether or not it’s worth grading those 2 issues.

So I just got this beauty and was wondering how bad this corner will get a book, especially with the writing on the backside. How would you get rid of the „48“

EDIT: Thank you fellas for all the quick responses and helpful feedback :D

Not asking what's this worth but when I did my research, last sold was 5 years ago, how would I go about valuing this for a potential trade?

I believe this is light oxidisation rather than staple rust. How would this affect the grade?

The CONDITION TACTIC!!

Post image
17 Upvotes

I never liked this tactic that dealers or sellers or even comic book shop owners try to pull, and that is the CONDITION TACTIC!! You probably don’t know about the condition tactic, but it’s basically when a dealer/seller tries to match the condition of your NM comic to another so-called NM comic and tries to prove that your copy is worth way less than what it is, but let’s just say you got an NM Batman 357 with no spine ticks or no stress spines; literally, a perfect copy would be valued at $250, maybe $275 for an NM copy like that with no stress spines or ticks, but the dealer/seller would basically pull up sales of a so-called NM copy of Batman 357 that sold for way less, like $120, but that copy they're trying to say is the same condition as yours has a couple, maybe even multiple, spine ticks and then tries to value your copy at $120 instead of $250. The condition tactic is pretty annoying if you don’t pay attention.
