First printings are typically the most valuable.

Professional Grading#

If your comic has been professionally graded:

  1. Check the Graded checkbox
  2. Select the Grading Company (CGC, CBCS, PGX, Self Graded, or Other)
  3. Enter the Grade Score (e.g., 9.8)
  4. Enter the Certification Number from the label

CGC-graded books also offer a Label Type field for the slab's label colour.

Tip

Even ungraded comics benefit from having a condition recorded. Use the certification number to verify authenticity on the grading company's website.
