While I think this pretty much stinks, I also feel relieved to read this and see it is not just me. I have a small pressing company and bought my first press in 2010. I have stuck with it and been consistent over this time and receive many submissions from all over country. Over the last four years I had only had one one batch that dropped grade and the client sent those in after the press and clean himself. I have always assumed he sat them on something and dented them after my work because it was such a fluke. I often tell people to hold the book as it is not a good candidate for a bump but still crack out customers books weekly. Pretty much after the CGC McFarlane signing, I received a grade drop after a press and clean...then another...then all 3 in a submission. I was like - I know I am not slipping on my quality control - what is happening here? So while this stinks, I am glad to see I am not just going crazy. 

I agree - great story and presentation. Also, too large for any current slabs out there.

So glad it all worked out. What a crazy story!

Thanks for posting that again newshane! Always a good read. I need to past it into a word doc.

Thanks for the review and pics!

@comicquant  Love those books! Congrats on some nice grades!

Just missed it. Thanks for the email though Andy!

www.nycomics.us does not work I wanted to print the submission form for the signing but when I go to the site it says site has been suspended what's up with that??

Same here, getting close to the deadline.

I really like the second one!

I cracked a PGX Spidey 129 9.0 for a client recently. It was missing half a wrap.  It was super obvious and they must have never even open it up when Grading it. I felt horrible for him.

Neg him for sure. That is messed up.

Looks great!

I'm ready!!

Nice book Chillax23 and welcomic back Toe Knee! Great looking books!

I bought someone's entire video game collection tonight.

 

OMG!! KUNG-FU!! One of my all time faves!

Nice score! Congrats!

WOW! I'm really happy you got it in the end! What a stressful ordeal!

Congrats on finishing an awesome run!!

So someone got an FF for under $10.00. WOW! Congrats on the great score that you managed to get Gatchaman! The estate sale organizers had a major fail on this one.

Your store looks really nice. Do you have open free play? Also, there are times you can run into D&D players looking for space.

we do have free play, we don't charge if you play in our store if thats what you mean. anytime anyone wants to play, i let them.

we already have a D&D group that comes in every other sunday. 7 people so far.

its nice to have that many people in the store but D&D people dont spend money.

at least my D&D people don't.

all good though/

Glad things are going well! I agree, you would think the D&D guys would at least buy snacks. I think I would feel like I need to buy a comic every week when I was in there for using the space...at the very least. Either way though, really cool of you to let them play. It could always lead to more sales.

Does anyone have any problems viewing images through Dropbox.com?

 

I'd rather host them there than Photobucket really... Let me know. Thanks.

 

Can you see this?

 

 

 

Always thought your avatar was a camel...like joe camel

 

Big view has ruined my perception

 

I always thought it was a camel too!

 

The power of advertising.

 

Did you mean to say camel toe

That would have been the typo of the year!
