My first purchase was a PLOD 8.5 Brave and Bold 28. My first submission was a Cap 109 I thought would get a 9.6 and came back a 6.5. I still have not fully recovered.

My first slab was X-Men 94 in a 5.0, I bought it at a con and unfortunately overpaid. I still have it.

My first bought slab was off Ebay and it was a Simpsons #1. I paid a stupid amount of money for it because I got over excited 
My first submission was a few Secret invasions, Modern Hulks and some Hellboys. I learnt a hard lesson when these were graded. Some of them came back as 9.4's and 9.2's and one was an 8.5! I got excited when I saw a 9.6 though 
I didn't look nearly as close as I should have at those books that I submitted. I've since gotten a lot more selective and much better at grading after being on these boards and my last 2 submissions have been 9.8's and 9.6's all the way.....

1st submission:
Tales of Suspense # 83, which came back CGC 9.4 WHITE original copy from when I was a boy... I was pretty anal about no one touching it a few decades before I ever thought about serious collecting.
Can't recall the very 1st purchase of a CGC slab...might have to look that up via PayPal, or whatever records I have...
CAL who has lost a TON this week of lost data due to Excel crashing...
