  1. And, perhaps at some point the comic book visited Canada.
  2. I may be biased, but the Tecs are gorgeous (in any grade).
  3. I bury all of my slabs in my backyard. Although it clearly frees space in my house, the digging gets to be tedious.
  4. The USPS PM padded envelope appears used (unless USPS has requested lower grade production for them I write with tongue in cheek).
  5. Some people do say with PB it most definitely is a size thing. Joking aside, as others have posted, the bend to the right; there I go again; should not be.
  6. I have purchased a literal ton of comic books that were in Mylites that were sealed with scotch tape and the tape residue that remained on the bags after removing it made the bags worthless. Archives also retain tape residue in my experience but can still be used; however, not in an acid free box, for example, because the archive with residue to will stick to the archive in front and/or in back of it.
  7. I have had this problem a few times and the process to have it resolved is rather straight forward. Contact CGC, explain the issue, CGC will, perhaps, ask for a photograph of the damage, CGC will authorize a return for a ReHolder, and, in a email, explain the necessary steps to have your comic book ReHoldered for free and be reimbursed for the cost of shipping the comic book to CGC. CGC will ship it back to you at its cost. The last time I had to return a comic book whose slab was damaged during shipment to me from CGC was in 2000, if I correctly recall, and the CGC customer service representative, as always, was extremely helpful in resolving the issue. Edit: I failed to note that none of the comic books I received whose holders were damaged during shipment were themselves (correction) undamaged damaged and, thus, retained their grades. Based on the photograph you provided, the comic book does not appear to be damaged as the sleeve likely protected it as the slab is not, relatively, badly damaged (almost the entire bottom broke off from one of the damaged slabs I received).
  8. I am "Waiting on a Friend," and it may be a long wait since CGC "received" my 35 comic book submission (Modern, slow track) on March 8, 2022; the comic books were delivered to CGC on Saturday, February 12, 2022, and acknowledged as received on Monday, (correction) February March 14.
  9. True, but if someone ('someones'?) has me on ignore, they will miss my 1000 post in, hopefully, 2025 or 2026.
  10. I like the potential of ASM 265. Of course, by the time I sell a copy it will be worth .
  11. As is said, "you get what you pay for." Unfortunately, with many new release comic books, you pay for much more than you get in several ways.
  12. If I had $0.08 I would place a bid on the comic book faster than I can blink. Disclaimer: I am an extremely slow blinker.
  13. My copy is like this one, except that it has "Natas" written on the cover.
  14. That looks like the copy I had graded, except for that "thingy" in the center of the holder/slab.
  15. All of my CGC graded comic books are worth more than cover price, except for those that are not.
