How do PGX services compare to our competitors?
At Professional Grading eXperts (PGX) we offer you plenty of reasons to have your books graded with us. We provide consistent, accurate grading of your comic books, full restoration checks, excellent customer service, and very fast turnaround times. Furthermore, the cost of our services are extremely reasonable. We also provide you a top quality comic book holder that has a superior holder design. These are the things PGX feels are important to our customers.
To be fair, however, there is another comic book grading company named Comics Guaranty (CGC) based in Sarasota, Florida. While we both offer you professional comic book grading, we think a side-by-side comparison will convince you that PGX is the obvious choice to have grade your books!
PGX makes it easy to submit your comic books
- Print the submission form
- Fill out the form
- Pack up your comics and mail them to PGX
That’s all there is to it! There is no society to join, no membership fees, and no middlemen involved.
Furthermore, we beat the competition based on price, turnaround time, and fair market value limits.
