Cut the rating/pricing form at the line, directly above the line above to fit into your plastic comic book bag (7 1/8” for Golden) and insert one sheet per comic book into the comic book bag behind the comic book board.

Once you have graded and rated your books by their identified flaws and imperfections, you can then have a bases to judge, calculate, and price accordingly, based on the prices that are given to you from the Overstreet rating/pricing guide.
