BTW Great looking books!

@Belarak - Those are standard Direct Edition. That is just they way they came in the US back in the day. 60 cent US

@Scifinator Thanks I saw pictures of them just with 60 cents. I guess the Newsstand didn't have pence. Thanks!

That’s correct. The Newsstand Editions did not include any pence price.

Thanks. Funny thing about those, I was expecting the reverse grades. I was positive G.I. Joe was a solid 9.8 with Wolverine most likely 9.6.

Beautiful books! I’m particularly envious of the Conan.

CPR on these. The X-Men #6 was a PGX 6.0, so the 5.5 isn't surprising. Everything else went up by a bit so successful for the most part. Thanks to the pressing and grading departments, and myself for filling out the paperwork correctly.

Thanks@PressMeComics. I bought that in 1982. Was supposedly "mint" and I had it in a 4 mil Mylar sleeve until I sent it in for grading. Just proves the necessity for 3rd party grading.

Just got these back. Wish they could have graded a little better, but I can't complain.




Zero issues with these two, obviously.

GREAT book!

Here are two of my comics that I just got back from CBCS. These are the first & second comics that I have received back with an "Exceptional White" page quality. Part of my 1st 38 Silver Surfer appearances run from Fantastic Four 48 through Silver Surfer 18 volume 1.

Excellent grades and page quality! Almost twins! I think I submitted my FF before they started using the exceptional white designation, but I have had a few books get it.

Finally got my Gerry Conway signing back. Only downside is that it was a CBCS 9.2 when I sent it (in the CBCS case) and a 9.0 when it came back. Still happy to have it back and signed though.

Picked up as a raw 4.5 from MCS. Looked like there was some press-able wrinkles, writing transfer imprints, and could also use some dry-cleaning. Sent in to @SteveRicketts and team at CBCS. And they had the gaul and audacity to send this back...





. Obviously I am pleased with the results. NFS part of my 1st 38 Silver Surfer run.
