Happy on some of the grades, saddened by a couple, and surprised by one. Was happy to get one of the Killing Jokes back in 9.8. Needed that one for an upgrade to the registry set. The ASM212 they hit hard on foxing Detective Comics 880, a bit disappointed, but, I missed a corner bend that breaks color. Really small one. The Vengeance of Bane had a readers crease along the spine. Was a late addition to the submission, so, while disappointed, not that upset The Hulk I thought would come back at least a 9.4, possibly 9.6 DC Comics presents, bought it off the boards as a 9.6, so, a bit disappointed, especially after it being pressed by CCS The Devil Dinosaur was a surprise. Another last minute addition to the submission. Was thinking 9.6 at best after press. Invaders is what I thought, but, hoping for a bump to 9.6 Batman Mad Love I thought was going to lock in at 9.8. Whoops, guess not. The X-men 101 was hoping for a bump, as I had it at 8.5 before the press. The other X-men 101 is a really nice looking 4.5, was hoping for around a 6/0/6.5 neighborhood You may have missed ink rub/loss on that Mad Love. I used to drive myself crazy subbing that one and getting 9.2-9.4 on copies that looked like potential 9.8's until I started noticing that most of them had some ink issues. It's pretty common with that book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capn17 Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Finally got my last piece of my most recent submission. Was hoping for a slightly better grade, but can't complain too much. This was a Heritage purchase that estimated it to be between a 8.0 and a 9.0. I thought a pressing might bump it up a bit. Still happy, nonetheless.

Did you just hit a motherload of PF raw all at once or have you been amassing these slowly and just sent them in? Most of these are tough in those grades. namisgr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These were bought years ago and from multiple sources. The Marvel picture frame westerns are very tough. Edited July 26, 2019 by namisgr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going near it! CGC gets a well deserved hammering in that thread! ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
