  1. Waiting is a bad idea. Sometimes there are errors that can be caught and dealt with before the package leaves the CGC offices.
  2. If you haven't shipped the books yet there's no need to cancel. Just create a new submission.
  3. Buyers that hammer a dealer on book condition in order to get a discount have a tendency to come back an hour later asking to return the book anyway.
  4. So a buyer is annoyed at a dealer who has a 9.6 but won't sell it for the price of a 9.2? Cool thread.
  5. I just bought and requested reconsignment on a book from MCS' stock
  6. I also tend to price my books below what other copies are listed at in order to keep the cash flow moving. Having books sitting available for months on end doesn't do much for me. On the other hand I also scour the new listings and buy underpriced books to then reconsign back. It's all part of the game.
  7. I like when I go into my consignment page to reprice some books and, while doing so, notice that one of the books I was going to lower the price on has sold before I had a chance to lower the price. That's a fun surprise.
  8. My auctions in the first three days ended below where I was hoping. Much lower actually. But my auctions ending tonight look like they will do well so, overall, it looks like even stevens.
  9. My collecting journey is built on regret.
  10. Takes: First takeit in the thread wins and immediately trumps all ongoing PM negotiations. I reserve the right to overrule takes in the event that a PM deal is concluded and I hadn't yet had a chance to mark an item sold. Any variation of "takeit" counts. Please do not edit takeits and please do not commit to buy unless you intend to follow through. Payment: I accept Zelle, check, money order or cash. I prefer no PayPal or Venmo but will accept it if it's a must. Payment expected in 72 hours unless we work it out ahead of time. Who can buy: No Hall of Shamers or Probies, or anyone on my personal list. Shipping: Free within the US. International shipping will be at cost and must be determined prior to sale. Returns: Three days' return shipping from receipt. Buyer is responsible for shipping cost back unless item was damaged in transit.
  11. One monster Bronze Age key. Battlestar Galactica 1. So significant I've not read this issue or watched one second of the TV show. F/VF. $15 shipped. SOLD

  13. Did you write out the word "period" in the thread title instead of inputting a "."? I like it exclamation point
