  1. I was told "yes" by a CGC rep, but who really knows?
  2. Another option is, as soon as you get the notice that the package has shipped, log onto FedEx and request that the package be diverted to one of their stores and held for pickup. I've done that on several occasions and the package is securely locked up. They call , text, and email you to let you know it's available for pickup. Show your ID, sign for it, and off you go. Luckily the FedEx store is only a couple miles from my house.
  3. I have mine delivered to my office. FedEx is there everyday anyway. If for some reason I want it rerouted, I do it before the first attempted delivery and it has always worked well. Still haven't shipped my wins. Maybe next week.
  4. Nice. And already alphabetized. That's service!
  5. The answer will vary from collector to collector. It may also vary from comic book to comic book. Not all 6.5s will have the same eye appeal. The tiny dot of color touch on this copy might be a nonstarter for some and no big deal for others. It is an individual preference thing. Some collectors won't touch books with tape, others shy away from anything less than white pages, and still others shun detached centerfolds. Everyone has their likes and dislikes. Similarly, the color touched book may present far better than another 6.5 without the notation. Maybe the color touch is at the spine and doesn't affect the actual image. Maybe it's on the back cover. Maybe there are significant differences in the eye appeal of the two books. Lots of variables at play. Makes it difficult to give you an easy answer.
  6. I don't think this one is a particularly difficult issue to find in the Hitler cover run.
  7. I was hoping Captain Aero would stay under the radar until I finished the run. And, thankfully, I did a few months ago (well, except for the last two sci-fi issues, but I was only going after the war covers). Just my opinion, but I think it is at least as tough, if not tougher, to complete than Catman. I agree that they do seem to be drawing more attention.
