  1. I just message them and say, " Hi John, I have left you positive feedback, please do the same, thank you." Works 99% of the time.
  2. I copied the image and got a working link for you; 0
  3. In my experience most sellers overgrade so I prefer hi res images instead. That said, if you buy a raw book it's a gamble no matter what.
  4. I think the real staying power of these books will show itself when the next recession comes around. My guess is they are going to tank.
  5. Great advice, this is going to permanently change my perspective on collecting. I just forwarded it to my brother who has a statue collection that boarders on hoarding. Thanks for sharing.
  6. My brother use to own that statue and he always regrets selling it, seems like it'll be out of his range for awhile.
  7. I had a hand-picked easy 9.6/9.8 sent in for slabbing. Came back 9.4 with a bc cb crease that wasn't there when I sent it in. Yeah, cover paper quality is like crepe paper. Very delicate. I'm not saying it was probably damaged during grading, but it was probably damaged during grading. Well as long as it wasn't damaged during grading.
  8. Wait...there is another... They go further back, to preschool...can't get more 1st than that
  9. Getting mine pressed and cleaned and then they'll be off to CGC fast track, so give me about 6 weeks.
  10. For issue #619 Catwoman was on the heroes cover so she's missing on the villains cover. We do have these though (with Huntress);
  11. Would this be a bad time to mention Brave and Bold 54? Oh I see now, it's their 1st meeting and it's considered the 1st Teen Titans...

  13. Tec #850 is the beginning story to GCS and leads into GCS #1. They have teamed up prior to TEC #850. This book came out the same month as Catwoman #89 (according to wikia). All front and center...but not a GCS story. I don't care what is finally decided, but Harley Quinn 3 for the win IMO! HQ3 and GCS1. Those two covers together .?.....good enough for me. Agreed, when in doubt go with the cover - it shows all 3 together.
  14. I didn't catch anything. These books have been talked about for a while. Sorry, got the impression there was still some debate.
