Grading Policy and VCK Grading Guarantee
The VCK Grading Guarantee: Unleashing the Power of Your Collection!
At Vegas Comic Kingdom, we're not just selling comics—we're fueling your passion for the greatest stories ever told. We understand that whether you're a lifelong collector or a new hero on the scene, the quality of your books matters. That's why we're supercharging our commitment to you with our new, high-octane grading policy!
Starting Monday, August 11th, 2025, you'll see a clear distinction on VegasComics.com. We're separating our books into two categories to give you maximum clarity and confidence when you shop.
New Releases: The Thrill of Discovery (and Top-Tier Quality)!
This policy applies specifically to our new release comics. Books listed from this week forward will either have no grading designation or be listed as Investment-Grade NM/NM+.
-
Raw, Un-Graded Books: These are the gems waiting to be unearthed! Books listed with no grading designation are sold "as is." This is your chance to snag a fantastic copy and get it graded yourself, or simply add a classic to your collection.
-
Investment-Grade NM/NM+: This is where we go all-in for you! When you see a new release listed as NM/NM+ (Near Mint/Near Mint Plus), you're not just buying a comic—you're getting our rock-solid promise of quality.
The VCK Grading Guarantee for New Releases:
We guarantee that any new release listed as NM/NM+ is a top-tier specimen, ready for your collection or your grading submission. We back this claim with our 9.4-10.0 Grading Pledge:
While VCK is not a professional grading company, we do our best to list the grade range that best reflects the condition of the book. If you intend to submit the book for professional 3rd party grading through a company like CGC please let us know at checkout- if it comes back at a significantly lower grade than listed we will reimburse a portion of what you paid! (example: A $15 Absolute Batman 1 listed at NM/NM+ is graded 9.2, we will reimburse a portion of the $15 you paid in the form of a cash refund or store credit!)
We're putting our reputation on the line because we're confident in the quality of the books we list at this level.
Your Investment Starts Day One!
Whether you choose an un-graded book or an Investment-Grade NM/NM+, you can be confident that your collection is powered by value from the moment you click "buy." We price all of our new release comics below both the current Fair Market Value (FMV) and the original retail cover price. Our goal is to ensure your investment starts paying off the moment it arrives in your hands!
Older & Back Issues: The Entire Grading Spectrum!
We know that collecting older and back issues is a different kind of quest. We're here to support you every step of the way. All of our older and back issues will continue to be listed with a wider range of grading designations, from Near Mint to lower grades.
This entire spectrum of older books is still backed by our VCK Grading Guarantee! If you purchase a book and it doesn't match the grade we assigned, just let us know. We stand by our grading and will work with you to make it right.
Why are we doing this? Because we believe in transparency, trust, and delivering the absolute best to our customers. The VCK Grading Guarantee is our way of giving you peace of mind, whether you're chasing the latest release or hunting for a classic key issue. Get ready to power up your pull list with the confidence only Vegas Comic Kingdom can provide!
