Pedigree Comics is accepting consignments for their upcoming June high grade CGC-certified Marvel & DC Auction. It is scheduled to begin in less than two weeks, on Wednesday, June 7, 2023, and last for 14 days until Wednesday, June 21 as a separate event on the Pedigree Comics website.

There is no buyer’s premium on any of the lots in the auction and almost every listing has no reserve. Every book is CGC or CBCS-graded and the minimum bid is $20 for this auction. Over 50 books can be viewed in the Auction Preview on Pedigree’s website under the auction banner.

There are books from a few different collections, plus a group of high grade Bronze Age Marvel issues from the Winnipeg Collection. There are almost 400 books in the auction, many of which are at CGC right now waiting for encapsulation. These books (over 325) will be scanned and uploaded into the Auction Listing over the next two weeks and in time for the auction.

Highlights of the initial consigned books include Amazing Spider-Man #50 6.0, #101 9.0, and #279 9.6, Batman #171 4.5, Captain Marvel Adventures #24 5.0, Daredevil #170 9.6, Sandman #4 9.8 (CGC Signature Series), Tales of Suspense #50 4.5, Tomb of Dracula #10 8.5, and Whiz Comics #24 6.0.

Pedigree is seeking high grade CGC or CBCS-certified comic books to sell or consign. Those interested can go to the site and read the following for all consignment information or contact them directly at (561) 422-1120 or (561) 596-9111 or by email at DougSchmell@pedigreecomics.com. 

Pedigree is now accepting consignments for their June Grand Auction. Consigning books sooner means that they will receive more exposure. Pedigree promotes and advertises each auction and sends periodic newsletters to all of their over 25,000 customers announcing the auction items. Pedigree also offers cash advances for quality consignments so check the site for consignment instructions and get your books in now.

There are three ways to consign your books to the June Grand Auction. The only criteria is that the books must be CGC or CBCS-graded and worth no less than $20. If you have high grade raw books that you want to have certified and sold in the May auction or a future Grand Auction, you can utilize Pedigree’s Raw To Riches Consignment Service, in which they will have your books certified under their account and will lay out all the CGC or CBCS-grading fees in advance for you (refer to the website and their Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide advertisement for all the details of the Raw to Riches Consignment Service).

To consign you can ship your books directly to their offices in Wellington, Florida. They will inventory, scan, and upload each book into the Grand Auction listing. The books will be listed under your personal account and you will receive email notification at the conclusion of the auction with a list of every consigned book that sold along with the winning bid made.

Email the scans of the books you wish to consign directly to them at DougSchmell@pedigreecomics.com. They will format and upload each scan onto their server and then put each book into the Grand Auction listing. Use a .jpeg format with the resolution set at 72 and the pixel width at 1200 for optimum clarity. If you do not have a scanner you can use a digital camera.

You can upload your own scans, item information, book or art descriptions and reserve amounts, if any, by utilizing their Automated Consignment System. Just register onto the site and login, click the “Customer Page” tab under “Your Account” and then click “Consignments” (under the “Auctions” heading). You will then be able to enter the Pedigree Comics Consignment Management System and list your own CGC- or CBCS-certified books. Pedigree will receive an email once you have uploaded the scan and book information for each individual item into the system and they will then review the information imparted for accuracy. The items will then be added to the Grand Auction listing to be bid on.

If you have any questions or comments about the consignment process, any of the auction lots or about the June Marvel & DC Auction in general, contact Mr. Schmell at (561) 422-1120 (office) or (561) 596-9111 (cell) or at DougSchmell@pedigreecomics.com.
