When is it advisable to press/re-slab in hopes of improving value?12873

@Bronte Correct...mine went on the Express tier..10 business day for Pressing and (now) 8 business day for Grading (it was 5 business days for Grading when I sent my books in Aug 20). Really fast TAT. My books are scheduled for delivery on Friday. I'll tell you, it was nerve racking to check the Grades when I got the shipping notification. |

Mine were split. Prolly get 2 separate shipments. 10 day press and same day on grading. On walk through tier. So you figure less than 2 weeks on hulk The batman books will be same tier as yourself. Maybe 3 weeks on batman books. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Jabberwookie @Jabberwookie I was kind of thinking the opposite. I was thinking the fact that they are 9.0-9.4 is a good starting point as eliminating one or two small creases might double the value in some cases. I would never crack a 9.6, but a current 8.5-9.2 would probably be my most likely target for pressing. |

Quote:Originally Posted by EbaySeller That is definitely possible, and an 8.5 seems like a really nice sweet spot to be in. My take was if you have a 9.4, then you really only have the option to get a 9.6 or 9.8, if you go up. Even with a press, you’re gambling on the subjective part not keeping you were you are or knocking you down a little. Admittedly, the recent post of someone cracking a slab and getting a lower grade is fresh in my mind and might be swaying me more than it should. But, I don’t disagree with your take. |
