Professional Grading Advice.

Hey all,
I am new to collecting and have really enjoyed reading some of the forum posts. I however have not found much on how to get comic books professionally graded and sealed in the plastic cases. I currently only have one book (Star Wars #1) that I want to have graded, but I really have not idea how to go about getting this done. I went to CGS website and did not understand the process, or pricing which would be best for me. Do comic book shops send them out for you and charge you a certain rate, or do I have to sign up for an account and do it myself? Any and all advice is appreciated. Thanks! |

So What Pulled You Back Into Collecting?

I just started collecting, besides buying some random comic books in my early teens. I was always fascinated by graphic novels and the art work that was in them. Then with the explosion of well written/well acted super hero movies I started developing interest in a few different super heros. Naturally this lead me trying find things that I could collect to make the movies tangible, and that brought me back to comic books. Again I realized how dynamic the art work and design each book are. since my income is slightly higher then when I was in my teens it has become easier to acquire the books that I want. Also going to a comic book show I realized that Star Wars was made into comic books (probably could have figured that one out if I thought about it) that was the nail in the coffin and now I an hooked. |

Thank you for the advice! I have done a little more research and have read that if the book is not 9.6 or higher it is not worth getting slabbed. I think I will take my books to my LCBS and get their input since i am still new to determining values/grades |
