| Many of those books were not even worth the $20 starting price. | ||

| Only 19 of 75 still going are selling. I think the experiment is what the raw grade brings for value on a $10-15 book. Experiment failing on the low end so far | ||

 I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for.

What experiment would that be? The experiment to see if a $5-$15 book is magically worth $20 + shipping if it's been third party graded? Yeah, that is not new information. Approximately half of the 75 completed listings are books that I would file into my $3, $5 and $10 convention boxes. Come and see me at the Big Apple Con , introduce yourself & mention this thread.Any CBCS or CGC boardie. Then take any book out of my $5 boxes, on me. Hell, repeat the following phrase after you introduce yourself: " IT'S A FULL BLOWN C.A.K. ATTACK " .... and I'll let you take one of my $10 books in return. Moving on: The sales of the better books/minor keys and bronze/copper keys that eere not in 9.8, worth around $30-$250 in GPA, were all sold around GPA. I will add that JUST BECAUSE the CBCS label on a Raw Grade book notates that no restoration check has been done, that simply means that no thorough resto check with equipment has been performed. Anyone who is a competent grader is going to SEE color touch and/ or a tear seal on a front cover, wether it is pro or ama CT, simply be looking over a book in ideal lighting conditions. 99% of pro/ama resto work on any attempts at trying to take advantage of the no resto check will be spotted, without a resto check being performed on Raw Grade books.....because pro work is not worth paying for on books worth $225 tops. Nobody is paying Susan Cicconi $50 per hour to restore an ASM 300 to a 9.2. You are not going to find anyone off a Facebook comic group that has the level of skill needed to restore books, that will work nearly cheap enough, to restore a book to the point where a restoration check with equipment is needed. That is a large reason why the FMV of Raw Grade books is capped at $225 (or $250, can't remember offhand). |
