Or, at least it feels that way...

My value tier submission has now been graded for 5 business days and should shortly be advanced to quality control. Obviously, with a value tier submission there isn't very much there that is uber-valuable to my collections, but there are three books for the go-go check collection and another for my Strange Adventures set.

Also, some books I selected for my buddy as a Christmas present for his shark covers collection are in there. He's going to be surprised. At least it appears that I'm not getting back any PLODs - everything appears to be blue label goodness.

It just feels like it is taking a million-billion-gazillion (sounds like a Richie Rich title, huh?) days have passed since the books were shipped off and I am getting impatient.

While I have been waiting, I did manage to recover my position with the #3 set in Strange Adventures...and I had some original art framed at the frame shop...and I ended up buying several of the DC leticular covers for villians month - with signature opportunities for the Bat-books at ECCC (hey - does anyone know what pens work on the leticular cover yet? - yes, I'm asking you Ronnylama, I know you were experimenting)...

Well - for now there is Halloween around the corner and after that, books should be shipped safe and I can consider my new grades. And then - well, then I need to save money for ECCC - because I have waaaaayyyy too much stuff for signature series this year, and we don't even have any really big names from the 70's or 80's yet - Klaus Jansen isn't that big a deal to me...

Well - we'll see.

Enough meandering thoughts for now -

Happy Hunting!
