  1. I was just going to post about that! Would you consider Tiny Titans 17 his first appearance though? jesus effing christ
  2. so will nbc make their own sixth gun? like they did with fables/once upon a time?
  3. Let me guess - you were just as "friendly" over the phone as you were in this post, right? Btw, tone/mood cannot be interpreted over text, at least not without exclamation points or caps lock. Therefore your comment is ridiculous as it is impossible for you to interpret my "written voice" but thanks for playing. right on Stanley1883, Msschmidt sounds dooshy in protecting CGC even though you paid for a service and did receive it.... Imagine if companies like McDonalds, or Starbucks, or Movie Theatres pulled this... we would not be backing them,,,, imagine if there were 200,000 hamburgers ahead of yours
  4. Let me guess - you were just as "friendly" over the phone as you were in this post, right? not an apologist, but waiting is the name of the game now. occupy your time with some other stuff. what i do is submit every other week or so. that way i always have books coming back and can only complain a little.
  5. I assure you there's no preferential treatment. I'd side more with the no method to the madness theory. Liam how can you say that. You dont work for them or do you know someone that told you that? Ask anyone who subs a lot of books to CGC - there's no preferential treatment. I had two different 30 book modern FT invoices from ECCC; one sat around for almost 10 days longer than the other one, even though they were subbed at the same time and under the same tier. CGC is trying to get books out the door as fast as possible right now which is why we're seeing books received on the same day ship out at varying intervals. +1 my prescreens leave at different times. i have 6 invoices at cgc right now, all received at the same time. 4 are modern fast tracks 1 is economy fast track and the other is standard. 1 of the modern fast tracks is coming back and the others are still there. i sub a lot and i don't get preferred treatment. they really are working to get it under control, not there yet but working on it. still would be nice to get rebates though
  6. the price is too high. the book isn't slabbed, there is already a numerical grade attached, although i still dont know what the spoon a 9.75 is. if anything, that copy will sell on ebay for $50-60. a slabbed 9.8 copy will probably hit around $100-110. gpa shows $120. most dont want to chance grading it themselves and have it come back a 9.6 or worse. $80 + grading fees. dont assign numerical/cgc grades to your books, you never know what will happen.
  7. They should care. As they say in the stock market, don't fight the tape. they shouldnt It can be a bad generalization, sure. My basic point was that you can't dictate to the market what something 'should' be worth. The market will decide for itself. sorry, it was easier to quote you but i was responding to mrween. "they should care" "no they shouldnt" Ah, OK. (thumbs u It's certainly something that's had 30+ years to catch on, and hasn't. The newsstand/UPC copies are certainly less in number and grade, but have never gained any traction. You are absolutely correct. 30 something years, same as mark jewelers. Maybe it will take another 20 years for it to catch, but most likely not.

  10. said it a couple of pages back, class action something or other and something, good or bad, will get done. probably bad though
  11. My Modern FT was received on April 4, and it's only "Scheduled for Grading." I wonder why yours is stuck there? I would have thought a 4/4 receive date would have been shipped/safe already. Apparently, they told me mine was placed in the regular track box, but when I asked for compensation, they said there would be none because my invoice was still within the estimated TATs, which it is not. The current and estimated TATs listed are 10 days. did they specify what the estimated TAT was to them if it wasnt 10 days?
  12. Are you selling??? If so, what condition?? I need one. its the one on whetton's list.
  13. should have asked sometime in the first 9 years you were a member j/k(sort of) it should be at your member homepage on the collectors society page. edit: if you look at your main member page, hover over submit now, then click on order status thank you. I don't have a paid subscription so I don't think this is available to me. if you call with your invoice number, you can at least get a status update.
  14. nice to make that list. canada boardies, buy it. ill give you free shipping. and no pm's asking if ill take $30 shipped for it please.

  16. from the post that dicex posted, they said they would give rebates. they refuse to give those as well... Not just refuse. Laugh at you for asking about something THEY said they would do. dont want to get banned or anything, but do i smell class action something or other?

  18. The defense rests... On the form though... "Applies to Modern, Value and Economy tiers only. Reduces the estimated turnaround times by half". what if you are not a dealer and you pay for membership and submit through website? the information only on the forms doesnt exist to those members. neither does the information about refunds/rebates.
  19. sucks they wont refund you or give you a rebate. cant they get sued for that. i only ask because im am 100% positive they wont refund or give a rebate. i gave up trying to get a refund from earlier this year/late last year.
  20. cant wait until express is behind. last express i had was on-time. $100 per book for 10 days...
  21. funny there are other members here that keyword spam, "cgc it" and so forth.
  22. No. It wont. Well it should. it wont. people who read comics dont give a mess about agent coulson
