  1. I use Avery 5/8" x 7/8" labels. Plenty of room to write price paid and grade and they generally leave no residue on the bag. No risk of the dreaded tape pull either. I also use them on my boxes to since the contents can change over time. For instance a box can contain titles "A - C" but eventually only have room for "A - B". I simply replace the last label and never write on the box itself. I just ordered two packages (2100 labels) from Amazon last week for $14.68 with prime delivery.
  2. I disagree with the timestamp part. For two of the three rounds, real life prevented me from spending time early on to do anything except give a cursory look at the books.

  4. if you both are done now... Has anyone tried an ordered Archives from them? They were out of stock last fall with no estimate on when they would have them back. Good to see that their TaT is around a month. I think it took 10 weeks last fall when I ordered.
  5. Grades are in. Actual graphical representation of me choosing my grades this round.
  6. Some really tough books this round. Waffling on two of them right now but will have my guesses submitted on time.

  8. It can be worse I think. If you guessed an 8.0 on the TMNT that would be 5 points on that book alone.
  9. Mine were Batman #4 - 4.5 Fight Against Crime #20 - 3.5 Fantastic Four #50 - 6.5 Star Wars #1 (1977) - 9.0 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 (1988) - 9.6 So that's a 4 for me. That FF was a tough one to grade and a last minute waffle on the TMNT cost me a second bullseye. Pleased overall.
  10. Was that your received date or SFG date? I have a 7/12 received | 9/2 SFG that is still stuck. I'll get an update on it Saturday from my LCS.
  11. Feel better, I had it for Christmas and it was only two days of yuck and then felt much better. Hopefully the same for you.
  12. That's a good suggestion. I'm going to post my import from CPG questions over there.
  13. The crux of the email was to see if they had any experience with importing from comics price guide but it seems they do not or I didn't ask the question well enough. I'm struggling with just one title but haven't looked at this in quite some time. I just exported to a CSV file and mapped fields but now I can't seem to link a title to my import. I did the Black Friday one year discount so I still have some time to see if I can figure this out. No clue on the underlying database either.
  14. I'm in the same boat and actually opened a support ticket with them this past week. It didn't amount to anything but I'll pull the context of the emails once I can and post here. I ran a couple smaller tests and it seemed to be a mismatch in title that was the cause of a lot of issues and figuring out what the correct field mapping should be.
