7 yearsJesse_O (39062): What does a checkmark (asterisk online) by the grade mean? In rare cases, a comic book will look much better than the given grade. In these rare cases, a Check Mark will be placed on the label by the numerical grade. The best way to understand why a specific comic book received a Check Mark designation is to refer to the graders' notes. Example: a comic is graded 8.0. However, the covers are such that it looks like a 8.5 or a 9.0. CBCS...

It may be 1,500 like the Weekly Auctions, or, it could be open ended like the Prime Auctions. If they get a lot of Golden and Silver Age listings, they will be more likely to make it look like a Prime Auction. Right now there is not June 17th auction, but if we see that open up, I would suspect that they will...

3 daysCaffeine_Kid (1297): On a side note with respect to the software version of the guide, if you like to keep historical records of comic book prices you still have to buy the actual book. They wipe out the current values when a new version is released. I would have thought they'd have a way to select prior years but that's not the case. So I'm forced to read the paper version of the guide with its 3-point font size text.
