THE "SWAG SCALE" - A Definitive 'Fool Proof' Rating System For "Safe" Comic Book Investing 🚀🔥.

In this video I pull out the whiteboard once again for another classic video. This is comic collecting 101, and this time we have what is going to be our most important lesson to date! "The SWAGGLE SCALE" or "SWAG SCALE". The definitive "risk-adjusted" rating system to measure the invest-ability of comic books. Think of this as the "morningstar" rating for collectables. The "On base percentage" for moneyball. Now lets be clear - this isn't a scale that tells you what books are going to go up most in value. This is a scale to help inform buyers of how to mitigate downside risk.

Clearly this system is HIGHLY scientific and full proof - so I need you all to take it with 110% seriousness - just kidding this is not financial advice. But I do think there are some good elements in this system to help mitigated risk for books you may want to "spec" on or "invest" in. It is a long video, so grab yourselves some backs and boards and enjoy the ride! Where do your books rate on the system? And let me know if you would like me to make videos based on this rating - perhaps a top 10 undervalued books based on the swag scale.

Hope you all enjoy the video!
