mysterio

Any new intel on when the signing is going to happen?

Just got mine today as well, practically needed to rent a blowtorch to get into the amazing packaging! As said above, I had considered buying this book for myself so I’m really happy to have won it. Thanks again @DR.X!

I’m still curious to know if people are actually paying the nutty asking prices some of these get. I’ve gone up to $20 on books I know are really difficult, but $20 for a fairly common one is absurd IMO. Then again, if people are actually paying it...

Thanks! Good to hear from you!

Having a hard time with the link. Top of the gold,silver,bronze selling page on the boards I think he closed it, but maybe PM him if you’re interested in any of them.

Plenty of interest here, at least, but lacking the funds for that pretty #1.

Dates posted, and the weekend looks open!

Modern prescreen 12/18 - box arrived at CGC

Spend a bit less, and with more focus.

5-6 years, I think. 2019 was my fifth (one attending, four vending).

Placed two years running! And the prize I really wanted! to @DR.X for running one of my favorite events this time of year!

Give them a call. Since it’s their error, and you warned them and they still missed it, you should get credited the shipping back into your account. That, or wait until you’re at a show CGC is attending and drop it at their booth.

$1377.54

First show of the year, and one of our favorites!

Congrats! TOS #26 is one of the better covers in the run IMO.

Same thing happened with my last shipment from Comiclink. It had never happened before with them either. I'm going to be changing my shipping address for future packages.

Speaking of JIM...nice night of bidding on a couple of them last night in the Clink auction. I whiffed on the #3, 4, and 6, as expected, but managed to land these. This completes #1-12 at the front end of the run, but my #6 is decidedly entry level.

Started 0-3 but ended up a solid .500 on the auction. Once again my budget urged me not to bid, but these books are too tough not to take a run at them. The JIMs ended up less expensive than I'd feared they would be.

2020 dates posted, already looking forward to it!

Kinky Good to be flexible.

Spent way too much this year, but got a lot of enjoyment out of it. This pair is definitely what my 2019 will be remembered for.

Shout out to Clink on this one...they reholdered it into the new pedigree label (which I’m a fan of). Nice surprise when I opened the box!

0 for 3 so far. Good for my suffering budget at least.

I'm pretty sure it will show up in the system. BUT with the actual signing, the signing, the order of processing, the holidays, the weekends, the employee vacations around this time of year, it could be awhile. Either way, you can always email CGC customer service to ask for an update on your order (how helpful they can be is another issue, though I believe they make a good faith effort). My guess would be that books wouldn’t be entered into the system until after the signing. I’ve also never done a private signing through CGC, but since the grading happens after the signing it’d make sense to me that it might be a couple of weeks before they get entered. Someone who has done a private signing may have actual info though.
