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!!

[@CTGuy]

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

[@Fenimore.Cassidy]

I appreciate the breakdown of this video into its "chapters" and the examples discussed at the end. Felt like I was back in class learning some very important information. Great advice.

[@BrysComics]

👍💯

[@kirbycarpenter9775]

Always good to go over the basics of buying even for old collectors like me. ThAnks Bry.

[@terrygillard1672]

Collected comics in the 90s and got away from it, only returning to collecting the past few years. this video is extremely helpful. Thank you Bry.

[@michaelbolduc1592]

New to comic grading as a whole, so thanks for this info! looking to send in a batch of my stuff when the new year hits. Thanks for the vids as always

[@leftyB82]

Thank u for the info, very helpful!

[@bryanbartrop5091]

Great video! Very helpful!

[@4stringerbass540]

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.

[@BrysComics]

Great tip

[@aaronmn76]

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!

[@hazorgalindo8545]

Video was super informative actually. Thanks a ton for it. Keep them coming. :)

[@HawgzFan825]

You’ve been an awesome resource while I began learning this hobby, I appreciate you!

[@BrysComics]

[@sidneyrivera3578]

Thanks for the video Bry. Good information as always to help me as a collector. “Buy what you love, but with caveats.” 🤔 Keep grinding bro!✌🏼

[@aaronjohnston1363]

Great video. BTW, that del Otto spidey is one of my absolute favorites!

[@OpenBuildRepeat]

Good info! Thanks!

I've only recently gotten into buying graded comics, and I'm excited to use this info to get the best bang for my buck.

[@A5TRO]

Just got into graded comics. Thanks for the info!

[@darynyamada502]

Thanks for the tips.

[@alexanderrivera9705]

Just started Collecting Graded and I’ve been reading comics for over 20+ years.. a Great way to preserve the comics I grew up with and share it with others 👌🏼💲

This was a really great video.

[@GymLeaderRay]

Great advice!

[@davidfausel9029]

Good practical advice as always, Bry :-)

[@Mandark320]

Just getting into comics thanks for the info👌🏻

[@scottstrobell4677]

Thanks for the video! As a lifelong numismatist myself, I’m glad you’re stepping into coins. It’s a huge world over here but the same principles are at play just with precious metals instead of paper.

[@BrysComics]

Excited to get my feet wet!

[@wcbountyhunter8611]

Great video!

[@mojorisen8980]

First of all I love your channel. Ima new subscriber ty for this informative video I’m an amateur collector since the 70 s Please keep it going

[@BrysComics]

Thank you!!

[@hornlame4562]

Good video thanks!

[@collinf33]

Great tips and very informative. Very good advice on collect what you like and be patience about it. I think is also good to set a price you are willing to pay when bidding. You can get carry away with fomo.

[@BrysComics]

Very good ppint

[@omgandhi5346]

I’ve just started buying comics a couple months ago and picked up my first graded comic.. picked up a 9.2 white pages asm 238 and it’s awesome

[@BrysComics]

Very nice!!

[@oliverortiz8507]

This video is much appreciated.

[@seanrodriquez7980]

This is great information. Thanks for posting it. I'm also checking out your site, I'm sure I'll find some good books. Cheers.

[@thethoughtfulbeggar3266]

great video dude!

[@whiskeygamesnerdstuff789]

Thank you for the video

[@r1xhardo]

Been using Key Collector for a while now. 10 out of 10 recommend, especially if you're new to comic collecting.

[@sasothestrategizer]

Video was cool. I think Secret Wars 8 will explode next year. I have a Canadian variant newsstand, 9.0 CGC. I’m excited!!

[@timothywillis8883]

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

[@Kirok2005]

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.

[@GurlNextDoor150]

just starting myself, thanks

[@Trustgone2020]

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.

[@BrysComics]

What an awesome position to be in! Congrats!

[@_The_Worst_]

Superb video with outstanding professionalism...🤘🏼💯✔️

[@BrysComics]

Thanks a ton

[@aaronwing78]

Buy what you love is good advice. Also helps keeping the square footage of you collection tight. Space is always a problem.

[@davidbailey6940]

Love the videos

[@DPCcollector]

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

[@Jungle-Boogie]

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!

[@BrysComics]

So true lol

[@bestcore1214]

I like covrprice also, but that's because I like the feature of checking for raw values aswell

[@colinsmith1071]

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.

[@colinsmith1071]

@t.me.Glass_reflection I already know how bad kolkata smells like i don't know what you could possible offer me.

[@backinthegame_comics]

Good info as always and yes, cgc all the way. No reason to lose value on anything you’re grading.

[@dradatzke]

Great video

[@jacob_comics]

Definitely an interesting video bro

[@jonbreece6688]

Nice work

[@andrewcai5042]

Always narrow down what you want. It will make things better in the long run.

[@kevinjameson7817]

I’ve purchased the two Spider-Man books within the last couple months. But raw. Need to get graded. We’ll see how I did.

[@ricksterminator]

Great intro video!

[@breakbeatz309]

Awesome video

[@CharlesLove-io2xt]

great beginner info

[@MoCollections31]

Subscribed nice content👍🏼👍🏼

[@r1xhardo]

So stoked the mystery box is back I bought two!!

[@BrysComics]

👏👏

[@rocketfighter8]

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.

[@BrysComics]

Very good timing on those purchases! Well done

[@rocketfighter8]

You can say that again. I couldn't afford them at today's prices.
