<title>Message from Ronbatman</title>
<description><![CDATA[As we work through the incoming data on comic book values there are times when the data doesn't make sense.  Raw prices above graded prices happens sometimes.  Today, I spent some time looking at Amazing Spider-man 606 confirming the data.<br/>The average raw value is greater than the graded value in 9.4, 8.5 and 8.0<br/><br/>My best guess is that collectors who want graded books look for 9.6 and 9.8 for modern books.  9.4 which is extremely common in raw isn't sought after in a slab.  I'm thinking about creating a list of these outliers.  It will help you buy smart and it will alleviate confusion when you see it in our price guide.<br/><br/>Books where the raw price is sometimes higher than the graded price<br/>1. Amazing Spider-man 606<br/>2. Amazing Spider-man 607<br/>3. Venom 3 (vol 4)<br/>4. Ultimate Fallout 4<br/><br/><br/>If you find more let me know and I'll continue to add to this list.<br/>Ron<br/><i>edited by ronbatman on 5/19/2023</i>]]></description>
