I am starting to get more graded comics into my collection, and this video helps you understand that process SO much better. Thanks for the great content BRY!!

@DPCcollector Жыл бұрын

my 90s comics are only worth something when graded. lol. But this will definitely help me decide which ones to send in.

@4stringerbass540 Жыл бұрын

Great advice. The best part of the want lists is if you throw some on buy it now listings, sellers sometimes come to you with discounts or lower offers. Patience is definitely the key.

I say collect what you love, and only invest in what you believe will go up in value. You don't need to love it but if you o it helps if you made the wrong choice and you are stuck with it.

The only thing you can do more or better is to make house calls and look through our collections and help us decide what to slab and what to dump.I’ll be the Guinea Pig for your first trial run , so when you are in Vegas reach out and I will make it happen.

This is a terrific overview of market forces and how and when to buy (which will inform how you sell). I'm a realtor in Minneapolis, and everything Bry said also applies to real estate - or any *commodity* on an open market. 👏👏👏 subscribed!

I always like the direct relevant information for collectors you provide for new and seasoned slabbers.

@pharaohjb Жыл бұрын

The ASM 252 is a good example, too, in that you need to beware FACSIMILIE editions. Many newbies might not know the difference, or what to look out for from a dishonest or not fully transparent eBay listing when they see a much, much cheaper pricetag on what appears to be the same book.

@BrysComics Жыл бұрын

Excellent point

@pharaohjb Жыл бұрын

@@JJ-qo3cz Point well taken, and is generally true. However, sometimes the 2nd or 3rd print is printed in a much lower print run and is actually the highest price tag. As an example, I'm thinking of Hulk 377 where it's really the third print that's the money book.

Great video. Collecting Graded Comics is definitely out of my reach but maybe at a later date and time

@Jungle-Boogie Жыл бұрын

Doing your DD means so much. When I first starting collecting, as a kid, I bought every book I could if it just was a #1 issue, of anything lol! Yeah, it paid off on a few books, but the vast majority it did not. If I had the internet back then, it would have been different. But to a new comic collector at a very young age with no prior experience every #1 you see must be the first appearance hahaha!

What a fantastic video. I've been buying (and submitting to) CGC for 12 years now, and even now I picked up a few pro tips. I'm relatively new to your channel, so I'm still catching up, and I'm also a new customer on your comic site! Just purchased your Wolverine Origins #28 2nd printing, one of my favorite comic covers of all time.

@rocketfighter8 Жыл бұрын

I started collecting comics in 1978 and left the hobby in 1986. The advent of graded comics brought me back into the hobby in 2005. My initial purchases, all from eBay, were the mega grails of the silver and bronze ages.

Very good timing on those purchases! Well done

I just started collecting. My wife has tasked me with selling her late fathers Silver age collection. I wish I came across these videos sooner. I have already slabbed and sold a few. Right now I have so many keys to get graded. I have a Xmen 1 in a 2.0 cgc currently to sell. Now I want to start my own collection! Thanks for the videos, very helpful.
