I HAVE A RUN OF MAGNUS 1-27, MISSING I THINK 17 I AM GOING TO PUT UP ON E-BAY.
MOST OF THE BOOKS ARE NM TO NM+,WITH A FEW NM- AND ONE OR TWO VF/NM.
THE QUESTION IS I HAVE MAG 0(NO CARD)1 AND 2 IN CGC 9.6......
SHOULD I SELL THESE WITH THEM OR SELL THEM AS A SEPERATE LOT?
IT SEEMS THAT THE 9.6'S DON'T DO REAL WELL ON E-BAY AS OF LATE.
I KNOW I HAVEN'T POSTED ON THIS BOARD A WHOLE LOT BUT IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED IN THESE BOOKS PM ME! THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!

I would suggest selling the 9.6s seperatly. You should ask board member 'ckb', he's the resident CGC selling genius.

I say add them to the lot.

It's true. 9.6s don't garner much respect. I'm not entirely sure why that is.

If you could let the Magnus 0 go cheaply, I would be very interested in that book alone.

Yeah I would say that you should list the run and the cgc books seperatly...someone looking for a 9.6 run of cgc books probably doesnt need magnus 1-17..

what everyone else said...list the mag 0, and the slabs separately...you'll probably get a better response...

oh...and turn off your cap locks...it's kinda annoying...

Good luck selling modern 9.6s for more than the cost to grade.

The problem? People have (rightly) discovered that, whereas for Bronze or older books, 9.6 is quite a rare grade, for modern, post-1980 books, it's as common as dirt. More and more and more, the "benchmark grade" for modern books is 9.8.

And don't even get me started on why someone would send a 6.0 Spawn #1 in.

Hey I have 1 cgc book, a Harbinger 2 or 3 in 9.6. I cant decide if I should keep it and try to put together a set of 9.6 books...or if I should just get rid of it...I guess I am leaning towards keeping it and pickup some more 9.6 valiants..

The only thing I suggest is to hit the Caps Lock key before you start typing.
Man is that hard to read.
