pipsy Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Hi, I'm new to flipping comics.Logic says modern and bronze age comics will have fewer owners therefore better quality conditions for CGC grading. Is it worth flipping older silver age comics I feel the condition of them are so poor its not worth it. You may get 1-2 surprises out of 10-20 submissions. Anyone been down this road? Also, does CGC have a UK base in London, which you can submit comics there, however i think they still go to USA for grading. Thanks.

They do, it's based in the Red Light District area of Soho. I took some books there once and came back with an aching ring. Sorry, the books came back with Newton Rings. I always get them mixed up.

Readcomix Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Would you guys cut it out and show some decency and help a new guy??? Sheesh; I'll do it.... Pipsy, I don't think you should flip silver age or bronze/modern comics. You're likely to crunch the corners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
