CGC has the perpetual ‘help wanted’ sign hanging. Heard stories from submitters at shows, they have seen someone roughly handling stacks of books for submission because there is only 1 or 2 people who have to work at breakneck speed to get them all done. I’m sure the private equity people have squeezed every dime from the process. If shyte gets lost, oh well, just keep the wheels moving

Has anyone tried to get the registry points updated for these?

They seem low, and some seem bananas low. Of course I say that after I've added a few books to my registry set! All the way up to #22 ranked set 30 Cent Marvels! Watch out @canickusI'm coming for that banner!

Yeah, the 3 points I got for my KC 205 seemed a little lame. 
On the flip side the mislabeled ASM 249 CPV that showed up as ASM #149 CPV was a rock star for points 

I don’t know much about this run, except that #1 has a counterfeit that is very difficult to differentiate from the original. For this reason alone, I would never touch a #1 that was not CGC regardless of grade.

Just grabbed this 9.6-9.8

Nice books, congrats!

Scans are deceptive, but I wouldn’t hang my hat on that high a grade. Very nice though!

Well I for one am going with ‘just a coincidence’ …… unless it’s not …,,,

Picked up an ASM for the run from Derek. Book was tightly graded and shipped fast and safe.

Buy here with confidence!

Marvel Premeire #4 9.2/9.4

I heard it was Amateur Night, but I don't see a single wet t-shirt in this whole thread.

For me, I dont slab mid grade nothing books. I use a pre screen for 9.8 on bronze and up non-keys. For books I buy, I rarely get CGC because I refuse to pay for someone else's grading mistake.

But when I do I crack them all the time. It becomes a practical thing for me. It takes about 6 times as much space to box all those slabs ask @jimjum12 about all those slabs I had. Now it doesn't matter much for resale if my mid grade 35 cent variant is slabbed or not. It would on a hulk #181. I just save the slabs for real 'keys' and super low census books. I can hold more books in my limited space for keepers now.

I’ll take it! Perfect for me!

This is a real beater.

I am calling this .5. 
But it is complete, staples firmly attached everywhere. Interior pages are clean. Staples look good. Some grease pencil on the back.

Very nice starter book, I would not mind keeping it.

$100

Just one book in this thread.

terms:

payment by check or MO please. 
 

Shipping in $8 US. I will ship anywhere, but this gets expensive and I have no control over prices.

Returns: ok within 7 days of arrival. You pay the return unless I missed something. Must be returned in same shape I sent it.

I believe in second chances. If you are on any bad lists you must make things right with those you have wronged. Only then May you purchase here.

Trades may be an option, hit me up if you have something interesting to offer.

First by PM or in the thread. I will try my best to determine the winner, but in the thread wins the tie.

Speculation ranged from Russian oligarchs, rich comic dealers, trust fund kids or wealthy individuals seeking alternative investments from high tech, business, sports and  entertainment fields. 

Then there is This guy laundering his drug money

Always thought there was more of this than anyone wants to admit

Yeah you did. Typical board behaviour. Hiding behind technicalities. You said I don’t collect labels and insinuated that others shouldn’t either. Period. 

I would label this post

I came back to read the thread this morning and D2 went Vasquez on everyone in here.

They should keep those old labels so we can CPR them for the label chasers
