It's good that your tough on yourself when you grade. Watching your surprise and delight when you get a higher grade than expected is priceless!

Canvassing is amateur hour for a presser. Great to see the improvements you made on these books.

Indeed, yet I see content out there that still tells people to use teflon sheets... makes me cringe. Thanks for the comment, and great to hear from you :)

Amazing results. My Motto is "Profit is Profit" you did good with these. Good eye knowing that books should be 9.8's and getting resubmitted results of 9.8 to solidify your opinion. Keep up the great content. Always looking forward to your videos.❤

I would love to see your techniques for fixing the canvassing! I’ve loved all of your videos 😂

It would be nice to see this worked out of a silver age book. I have seen this so much more on Silver. @@ImproveCollectingComics

You are really good at getting the grade you expect. I'd rather be harsh on my grading as well. That way we're not as disappointed and it helps cushion any disappointment.

Doesn't CGC give perfect 10's anymore? You out of anyone would definitely be the comics pro who could get 'em

@ImproveCollectingComics 5 ай бұрын

They rarely even give 9.9.. and I've definitely submitted a few that were 9.9 candidates, in my opinion

Cool thanks. The other thing I was thinking of was Tessa, who becomes Sage later and joins the good guys

@jcp4162 5 ай бұрын

I bought all of those X-men and Daredevils when they came out as a ~14 yr old. Great to see them! Question: why do you think that only one person is grading each book when CGC claimed to have 3 people per book? Also, is it not possible that different teams grade different books in the same submission?

@user-tl3lq6uk4o 5 ай бұрын

I believe their current claim is that AT LEAST 2 people grade each book but who knows what is going on in that place given the recent news. They could easily address this (possible) misconception but seem to prefer to keep every practice as obscure as possible from their customers.

How do you pick the books when they're raw?

@ImproveCollectingComics 5 ай бұрын

I look for books that have pressable defects and avoid books that have lots of color breaks, like creases, bad tics, tears, etc

@Brickdinosaurjimmy 5 ай бұрын

Have you done any pre-screens recently with CGC? The last 2 weeks I’ve been blasted with rejects and I normally have a 75%+ success rate. I also noticed a few others say this as well on the CGC boards. Just wondering if you’ve experienced this, or if anyone here has.

@ImproveCollectingComics 5 ай бұрын

I had 3 prescreens come back last month with the usual 75-80% success. I have a couple in QC today, so I'll comment here once I know the results

@@ImproveCollectingComics awesome, thanks for responding. Hoping I just got a (super) Harsh Harry and you get Loose Larry.
