    Yes it is I don't know the exact size of a Golden Age Shadow...but that seems like a *lot* of extra room on the side. Is this some new slab size slightly below magazine? I have a couple GA slabs next to me and they fit in the slab with barely any space on the sides. Not only that, but if you are going to give some extra room for a GA book, don't press one side directly against the well.

    What size slab is that? Is it the same size as the Silver Age comic?

    I took my entire collection to them. Some sell individually, some in groups. It is what it is. So this is them splitting your 1 collection around various auctions, not you continually sending them additional books?

    Is there a reason you're pushing these through Heritage -- which it appears they are lumping most into group lots -- as opposed to selling here? Is the Heritage bump that great when it comes to your net?

    Time to buy that 2.0!

    lol; I had a feeling you may have jumped on this. You are amazingly fast on eBay.

    Would this equate to three different printings?
  13. manetteska
    That’s a tough one. Of course his prefer the staples look better, but if you’ve been after a CL 25 and have the funds you kind of have to buy it. And then wait a year or more to upgrade? If the staples bother you that much. Otherwise it presents well.

    No hard evidence regarding damaged books. You said yourself it's a rumor. Nothing triggering, just clarifying for others/newbies that some things you state in the form of a fact are not.

    My earlier statement about this being a storage locker find was incorrect. From what I heard in the video (I couldn't listen to this for an hour) the seller had heard of Flip Mode via another collection they bought. There was a strict vetting process to just be able to see and then make an offer on the comics.

    I know you know, but for those that don't (and while it lasts) here is how I get there: My eBay Drop-down (top-right) -> Selling. From the choices across the top choose "Research". Put your terms in the search bar and go find it. It doesn't appear the results are automatically filtered by most recent or oldest sale date.

    The damaged copies is a rumor that's been floated for more than a decade now. On other boards dealers said they received damaged copies and sent them back for returns but no replacements were sent out they just got a credit on their account. The damage is almost always streaks on the back cover or a chewed up spine and they were delivered by Diamond that way. Like I said I've never seen one with ink transfer on interior pages like this one. -J. Ahh, hearsay.

    Us bottom feeders gotta eat too With recent prices on some of this stuff is there a level below bottom-feeder?

    How do you *know* the bolded statements above? Not the 200 copies printed rabbit hole as we've been there before, but that "maybee up to half" are damaged or error copies? What constitutes an error copy? Is that damage from the factory? Damage (creased spines) from owners?

    2. Adding to the Bobby Blue Collection - Most or all of these are on their way to ComicConnect so that’s where we can expect them to surface. I asked them about a book when I first saw the post with a Dynamic Comics 8. Yeah, I saw the posts on the collection pretty early and inquired about a couple books. Eventually they said almost everything is getting graded, and most (?) going to CC. Probably wouldn't have been able to afford them raw and via direct sale anyway.

    We ship every week on Thursday. It gets there Tuesday. They open it by Friday and it's charged. I can't say they charge COMPLETELY in advance, as they did some of the work (open box, input submission) before charging. But toward the end of the process? No. I don't know what to say other than that's a completely different order of events than every order I have put in with CGC for grading. However, as can be seen from my above post, I haven't submitted in a bit and I don't submit often.

    I guess we had different experiences as I was definitely not charged as soon as the box was opened, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. And these TATs don't seem horrendous... Going through my emails I had 2 orders last year: a walkthrough (3 comics) and a modern pre-screen (25). Walkthrough Order created 1/17/22 Walkthrough Received 7/21/22 (was with a non-CCS presser before this) Walkthrough Shipped 7/29/22 Walkthrough CC charged 7/28/22 Pre-Screen Order created 6/10/22 Pre-Screen Received 7/28/22 Pre-Screen Shipped 9/1/22 Pre-Screen CC charged 9/1/22 Same timing for an order of October 2021; Received 10/6/21; Shipped and Charged 10/26/21.
