Topic: Grading my comics

 Hello, after more than 25 years out of the comic books world I am back again.
I am creating my "Collection" but is difficult for me to find the right grade for my comic books.
in example I started with my "Punisher War Journal" collection and I own from 1 to 50.
From when I purchased them in a comic shop I kept them in a library with a plastic bag and a cardboard back for each issue (probably an overkill for these comics...)
The standard 8.5 grade seems a little low to me, but I don'y want to be presumptuous
Since I live in Italy is not easy, or probably very expensive compared to the actual value of the comics, to send them to an official grading company.
Does exist a service, maybe sending some photos of 1 issue or with a video call, to have a rough grade that I can use as a guideline?

best regards and thank you in advance

Carlo

EDIT

for what is worth ChatGPT graded the #1 issue between 9.2 and 9.4
