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. Similar to the “Total Sales Volume Graph”, we only show days that had actual sales.
Our goal for this graph is pretty simple, it shows the total number of comics (aka “units”) sold each day. Then this graph will show $36 for that day. So if we captured the following three sales on an example day: $10, $15, and $11. Each day shows the sum total sales amount captured that day. If a day didn’t have any sales, then that day is skipped. Here we show the last 14 days that actually had sales. Our goal for this graph is to show the overall volume trends for the comic in question. 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.
