what to do what to do...

while going through our massive warehouse buy, I came accross a significant amount issues of Hack/Slash #1 from the 2007 DDP series. they are all in really high, untouched grade, and I decided that I would seperate some out for CGC to grade and then try to sell some of the others since it seems to be a popular series. I've sold a handful and still have many more, but I finally got around to sending in a test run of 3 issues with my last invoice. I don't have the grades back on those, but, it got me thinking... what if they come back 9.8s?

I looked on the CGC census and there are only 2 other copies of this book graded, one in 9.6 and the other is a SS 9.8. If mine come back a 9.8, could I be in a position to corner the market on this book and dictate its value? I started thinking about it for a few minutes and some funny stuff came to mind, like what if there was a simialr pile in a wherehouse but they were Action Comics #1? would I grade 5 or 6 for profit and burn the rest to ensure demand greater than supply, or flood the market thus creating a crash in the price?

Of course this is all hypothetical but on the Hack/Slash book I have options... if the test 3 are 9.8s, I think more will get submitted and most likely be 9.8s, but how many end up getting submitted is the question and will that be detrimental to its value in the long run... it'll be fun to see how this plays out.
