That’s why we do all the leg work and show both graded and raw values. Don’t get us wrong, grading is a great way to preserve and authenticate the condition of your comic, but it’s also important to know what the other 95% of your raw collection is worth. Also, most comic collections are made up of non-graded comics. However, if a seller states a comic is a 9.8 and a buyer buys it, one might infer that the buyer was in fact willing to pay that amount for that condition. Please Note: Since raw condition information comes from the seller’s listing itself, it should be viewed as subjective. When we’re able to determine the condition/grade of a raw comic, we’ll list that grade in blue next to the sale. We’re working hard to provide you with more information about the raw sales data we capture. With this in mind, CovrPrice only displays actual sales data (taken across multiple online marketplaces… not just eBay) to help you better determine the best value for your comics.
