Come learn from my amateur mistakes in this video as we discuss my first 3 learning lessons from submitting to CGC!

In this video I submitted 26 books as a pre-screen. These were unread, unopened, modern books, I didn't even take them out of the bag. I simply inspected them through the front of the bag and submitted as a pre-screen 9.8. I am stunned at the results: 24 out of 26 came back 9.8!
So here's the 3 lessons learned:
1. Only submit in batches of 25 (for large submissions). This helps save of shipping costs. CGC breaks up submissions into a maximum of 25 books each.
2. Don't submit prematurely. Some of the books I submitted were hot at the time but have totally cooled off (or died altogether). It's usually best to wait until a book has matured enough to have solid sales data.
3. Not every book needs a clean and press. This was the surprising lesson. If I'd have pressed all of these it would have been over $200 wasted because I would have gotten the same results.
I can offer at least 10% off (sometimes quite a bit more) any books listed on my eBay store! Just send me a DM on Instagram or email me @ comicallycorrectcomics@gmail.com

The first Virus will always be a cool book to me cuz it’s literally the 1st appearance called “Virus” during a pandemic with a virus being spread across the globe. It’s insane

I like the phrase "first cover app of COVID 19" I enjoyed these lessons, and I may come check in again as I'm building my first submission box.

NICE pick-ups. I have a bunch of the FCBD Spider-man comics as well, I didn't get them slabbed so they are worth less or worthless depending on your point of view. Thanks for sharing the lessons learned, always helpful.

If you prescreen for 9.8 that means they will slab only the books 9.8 OR HIGHER. So you could get higher than a 9.8.

love the justice league 50, one of my best friends had the entire run, the box got water damage and literally the only book that was critically damaged was issue 50 lol

Newer sub and really enjoying the channel. Who are the best ebay sellers (or off eBay) that you use for buying CGC 9.8-quality books if I plan on doing submissions? Many sellers say "NM", but that can mean 9.4s/9.6s.
