    My guess is that any books that were to be signed by just Ben or both Kevin/Ben were done while both guys were there, and the ones that were to be signed by just Kevin will be sent to his house.

    His house? I have 2 books and one magazine submitted in December. Will we get a special signed in Eastman's house pedigree?:idea:

    CLOSED Thanks

    Closing thread

    First :takeit: in the thread wins .  Trumps pms or negotiations.

    Payment via Paypal check or money order. Payment is expected within 72 hours of invoice unless we talk about it. I will invoice winners once the books are claimed.

    No Returns on CGC books. I will use foam bubble wrap and plastic in addition to ample packing material. Returns on raw books are ok if notified within 7 days of receipt at your cost unless I missed something.

    I've bought and sold from loads of people on the boards. I do have a kudos thread.

    Another eBay cautionary tale I thought I would pass along. 

    I purchased a Batman Arkham Knight light up statue on eBay in July. Actually part of the game for XBOX and PS4. Went to replace the batteries today to find out the battery compartment was jimmied with aluminum foil and one of the terminals was rusted badly. I know its on me for not opening the battery compartment when I purchased it but I was content when I saw it work. I reached out to the seller just to notify him of what happened and he actually replied right away with a half hearted apology. I wasn't expecting anything back but it is in my nature to confront someone when a deception has occurred. This is not the first time someone on eBay has done some temporary repair/restore to sell . I just wanted to pass along the info.

    The official Usagi Yojimbo/Stan Sakai Thread

    in Copper Age Comic Books

    Posted

    I am a big fan of Stan Sakai having met him at my old comic book store in SGV. I bought a lot of his early stuff missing out of course on ALBEDO 2 but I did purchase multiples of Usagi Yojimbo 1. I've had three copies graded by CGC, 2 9.6 and a 9.8. I have two more raw copies of the 1st Usagi Yojimbo in his own title. eBay has a 9.8 on auction right now for $1300 with 3 days to go. If I have the other two copies I have graded will CGC require the $65 per book grading fee or can I still submit in the modern tier?

    Guess I should post a picture.  Found at a local Goodwill store in Orange County. Card was in good shape and I have no problem removing their price sticker and black marker code (if its on the plastic).

    Here in this neck of the woods Goodwill gets overflow from Target stores so I find good un opened action figures at least once a month. All Orange County locations give a discount to retired military and I take advantage of that too.

    Did you write initials on the box for signing?

    I have claremont books delivered Feb 2nd that haven't been checked in, that has me forgetting if I wrote initials... :(

    Getting a bit worried as deadline to have them in was last Monday

    I did put the initials on mine. Reason I posted was I had no notification from CGC that the signing was delayed. The only thing I noticed was the news release was updated. Is that the only communication? Doesn't seem like much when the cost is so high on signatures and remarques.

    I enjoyed your Savage Tales 1 signature reveal Adamantium. Great book
