  1. Even if its our first time meeting you? Yup. Noobs welcome. -shawn I didn't really get the chance to thank you for the great books, I really appreciated them. Thanks again!!!!!! PS. My son saw your vest and now he is asking me to get him one. It was really cool!!
  2. Grand Avenue Books in Williamsburg Brooklyn (early 80's) was where I first bought comics, but they only had back issues. My first LCS that I went to for new releases every week was Mike's Continental Comics (Mike Carbo) in Forest Hills Queens, NY. It was a small little shop before he opened up the larger store around the corner. Little Nemo's was a couple blocks away also. Great memories!!
  3. Also it says that it is being sent by Media Mail…I thought he was sending it Flat Rate. Mine said Media Mail also, which means my post office will open it and inspect it and charge me more or send it back. I only ordered 2, so the $8.25 shipping cost would have covered Priority with no problem. I sent them a note, not sure if it will change anything though. As I figured would happen, my post office opened and inspected the books and now they are charging me additional money for Priority because comics are not media mail. I emailed them 2 times but I don't expect to hear from them. I doubt I will be purchasing from them again.

  5. Great thread!!! Thanks for being so detailed!!! Hopefully you made way more than your expenses..that's always my biggest worry.
  6. Grand Street Books - You walked in and looked at his list of back issues (he had everything) then he would go downstairs and pick it for you. After them, it was Continental Comics -(Mike Carbo's first place) on Austin St and down the block was Little Nemo's. I always wonder what happened to the Grand Street Books collection once the owner either closed or passed on.
  7. How and when shall we enter? I'm looking forward to this!!
  8. I bought a beautiful CGC 9.8 of Batman Adventures 12 CGC 9.8. Received it right away and the package was bomb proof, I would definitely do business with him again!!
  9. Shawn is the man! I had already ordered 4, but with the free shipping I had to get a couple more. Thanks!!!!!!!
  10. https://forbiddenplanet.com/131601-wytches-2-thought-bubble-variant/ Thanks for the info, but I am hesitant because every time I have ordered from them, the books were damaged in transit.
  11. Did anyone get an extra copy of the Thought Bubble Variant?
  12. I read that the Lemire cover is for the Thought Bubble Festival in England. Is anyone going and if you can get some PM me please.
  13. Bought a bunch of Vigilante books and got a great price, great packaging and lightning Fast shipping. Great to deal with. I appreciate the help!!!!!!!!! Highly Recommended!!!!!!!!!!!
