The Raphael book must not hold well as mine came back a 7.0 and my untrained eyes thought at least a 8.5. If you're interest in a trade, I would like to up my current 7.0 to a 9.6. Let me know!

Grading/Quality Control.

Amazing! I think the best plan for me personally is it to write down the amounts I'm willing to spend for each book and stay true to that maximum bid number. Such an amazing opportunity to really grab a couple very rare 9.8s.

Grading/Encapsulation/Imaging!!!!

What weighs more? A TMNT #16 cgc 9.8 or a stack of gold coins? Guess we are about to find out.

I'm to the phase of completing my quest where I now own two copies of three books due to auctions being overlapping or just not keeping adequate (accurate) counts of wins. Either way, looks like pedigree.com is giving tmnt collectors a moment to get several high desired books in one auction event. I've rolled my pennies, smelted some gold, sold a rare car... mouth piece is in... cowabunga dudes.

Looks like we would be going head to head on the 13 (if it is auctioned). Cheers!

Very excited to acquire a few of your TMNT CGC 9.8s. Definitely three of them potentially shipping my way at close of auction. Let's goooooooo!

Thanks! End of day picking up the phone WAS the fastest way and now I know that the cut off date has nothing to do with the actual signing. Thanks again!

I called. It was the cut off date for accepting. Signing event isn't for 4-10 weeks. So I'm a newb and picking up the phone turned out to be the best course of action. Cheers!

Hi Revat, I am going to disagree here on this take. This is 'the' CGC forum with CGC moderators not internet randoms as you put it. The date for the Last Ronin was January 24th and it was bumped to February 4th. All information obtained right here. This is a community forum for CGC customers I assumed. So it's not impossible for someone to confirm the date was pushed again or a moderator to provide insight into the Last Ronin crew signing dates. I could have been more specific in my inquiry and will do so in the future. Still haven't seen it in submission tracking although the package was received... guess I'll call customer support representatives... Happy collecting!

TMNT #1 Second Print CGC 9.8 TMNT #2 Second Print CGC 9.8

Yes, confirmed delivery via tracking number just haven't seen it added to my submission tracking at CGC.

Only five in CGC 9.8 TMNT #32 2ND Print

I rushed to have the comic accepted by CGC by Jan 24th and haven't seen it enter into the system. I marked the box accordingly to reflect TLR Crew and Remarque. Should they be showing in the tracking now or was it pushed out perhaps? Thanks, Bryan
