I totally agree with you. I've been collecting comics since I was 6/7 years old in 1968. I actually was filing comics books starting at around age 14/15 in 1975/76. I stumbled upon my very first comic book store in June of 1971. Ironically the store's name was the Good Old Days in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I started as a gofer at first. Making cigarett and pizza/hamburger runs. Then got hired to clean everything and hired as a kid employee. Where I learned all about grading comics. It depends also on the person grading your comics. The main things to look for of course are. Crooked cuts, tape, water marks/stains. Cracks, dents/dings wear, rust staples/missing staples, and of course missing ads, Marvel Value stamps and the brightness of the color on the covers and interior pages. Your comics mostly indeed look more along the lines of what you stated in your video here.

At last a collector not a speculator, like yourself ive been collecting comics for a very long time but its a love of the art form that is comics, im fed up of people just cashing in due to a movie or tv show. This makes it harder to get items that most of the time no one would be interested in unless they collect a certain title. Enjoy your collection thats what collecting is about.

I found this video and wanted to watch it after you mentioned how you only have 50 total slabs. Being born-again into the hobby, now with my sons, I am trying to best understand the entire slabbing situation (what gets slabbed vs. raw, why, etc). You have an interesting mix of slabbed comics. Love the Cap #109. That is a grail of mine.

Side note: are you off for the summer? I'm 12 months, so it's full steam ahead! Enjoy the time with the family!

I own a 7.5 ASM #121. Was a huge disappointment to me. Why you ask? 'Cause I bought it off the newsstand when it came out. I was taught to buy 2 of each, one to read, one to save. As soon as I bought it, it went straight into a bag, with a board, and rarely touched it since.

Lovely bunch of books, for sharing, bud....!

[eedub]

I get it but I’d like to know if you are into insurance for your collection and where do you find information on it Thanks

[jasonpowers]

what has your most recent experience been with cgc turaround time?

[felixmaldonado]

That's my problem too, i have plenty of raw books to send to be graded but the cost is too much for me so i have to stay with them raw ( ASM 1 thru 50, FF 1 thru 100, DD 1 thru 25, XMen 1 thru 100) etc, etc. I enjoy having them raw, so i'm ok.

I feel your pain. I just recently got back into collecting and sent some xmen off to be graded and got back some grades that were way lower than what I was expecting. Great Books!

[bruh_hahaha]

Man, that THOR 165 looks much better than a 4.5. What did the graders notes say?

[RAG]

thats all the slabs you got ??!! we gotta work on that Jerno... lol jk -- nice looking books, , that FF74 looks 9.0 or better most def, , some there might be worth resending, , i do that.. talk soon

[brickhunter]

I try to drop off my books at a convention, which means I need to pay only for return ship. Onsite grading pro makes it cheaper. Btw did you press and clean those books before grading?

[tacitus]

Looks like u got robbed on a couple of those grades. I think people need to start taking their business to pgx and cbcs.

[oldman-gamers]

Very very Nice Chris.. Just Incredible..!! Did you See my Slide Show of my CGC Collection yet..? Nothing Major like yours but Nice Books..!!

[mattronimus]

This is why you don't buy shit books!...cause you get shit grades.

[comicbookninja]

CGC can be a crap shoot. Nice bunch of books though.
