  1. I was hoping to make the drive down for this one but unfortunately conflicts with our schedule hopefully this one starts to grow as I'd love another close USA show to visit.
  2. If you scroll down on the main page there is a spot to enter your email to join the mailing list (make sure to validate it after you enter it from the email it automatically sends, which may end up in your junk)
  3. We've taken the plunge! Jim and I are pleased to showoff our new website. We will try to keep the slab scans up to date as to what is available but the even more important thing would be to sign up for our emailer (we won't spam you I promise) but we will inform you of things like opening up on a Saturday, new collections and upcoming cons etc. Check it out
  4. We won't be holding anything back from Fan Expo...so if you want to beat the rush and get the good stuff best to check us out a week ahead of time :P
  5. Hey don't you engage with him... Last time you did there was talks of raising your prices!
  6. There are quite a few acolytes here that can not fathom CGC ever making a mistake... "not the same book" "of course creep engine is good for the books" "no onsite grading doesn't slow down TATs" I'm all for a good ribbing, and if anything let's bring up SB's IG account today, but to pretend that the same mistakes or worse haven't happened here and some won't defend CGC tooth and nail that they are perfect is silly.
  7. Is it really that much worse than the time(s) cgc has shipped packages worth more than the average yearly salary to the wrong address? Is it really that much worse than the time(s) cgc has encapsulated books backwards, upside downs, and backwards upside down?
  8. He's not on the boards much anymore but you can definitely reach out to him: sales.sharpcomics@gmail.com Brad's personally helped me on some big transactions (north of 5 figures)
  9. No formula all book by book basis. A married wrap on a 9.8 is a lot worse than a married wrap on a 0.5. A married wrap is a lot worse on a Walking Dead 1 than a Cap 1.
  10. Or if you resubmit the book a few times maybe it gets a blue label... (guy claims he pressed the book and corrected the spine)
  11. Booth assignment like every year we've done it (cept for the year I was stuck in Teddy bear lane) :Banana: Booth 1004 (right as soon as you enter). If anyone is planning on buying tickets that hasn't already this year they've announced a vendor assistance program so if you need to buy tickets to Fan Expo @Guardian Comics and I would love it if you bought through our affiliated link (I can pm you the link). I'm so excited for this show.
  12. Bahahaha reading this just made my morning.

  14. I'm shocked...both Roy and I have a drink in our hands...so unusual for Chicago LMAO I'm pretty sure that is still your I'm going out shirt you still wear to this day.
  15. Lots of 9.8s on google images. Don't see any 10.0s but did see this one.
  16. Oh ya if you yank from pulls then I totally agree it is wrong of the shop.
  17. I don't play in the new books...but I don't see why it's an issue. A shop orders in 20 copies of a book (15 of those go to pull folders). The orders close off and the book becomes stupid hot (we'll call it TWD193). The 15 allotted pull folder books go into their respective pulls, why does the shop need to sell the next 5 at cover price when the book is selling for 10x that?
  18. Sorry Mr. dealer I had the money but I lost it all after posting the , so I can't pay you. No I'm not sure how I lost it all or where it all went but I made sure to close my bank account, have them shred the documents and wipe their database. Thanks for understanding that you won't ever be able to sell the book for as much as I agreed to pay you.
  19. We discussed this among a few friends the other day. Was a bit different than your situation as it was an ff book with an avengers label. Given all things equal (if you had two identical books and price) the majority of us would rather the standard label than the marvel label.
  20. Jim83 + GSX purchased. Shipped on time as promised. Great transaction.
