    I was working at a comic shop during the height of X-Files mania, like 95-97, and man alive, those X-Files comics sold like hot cakes. The #1 issue was like a $40-$50 wall book, and we couldn't even hang onto them. Insanity. I still pick them up when I find them in dollar binds because of those times, I just can't let go of it. (Same thing with Gen 13, former wall book that is dollar bin fodder.)

    That’s awesome! I was lucky to score a 9.8 for issue #1 off eBay a few years ago for $40. I have yet to read any of the comics, I’m curious thou.

    Where in the world was the Quality Control at CGC???

    Sorry to see this!  I know you were really excited about this book.  Definitely get it made right!

    Thank you. I also need the let them know that the inner well trey used is too small for the book. The indented part the book fits into is more of a fit for a book that would be the thickness of Adventures of Superman #500. I need an inner well that can accommodate and book with the thickness of say, The Death of Superman TPB Platinum Edition. I worry if the book should shift in the holder during transit that the foil on the embossed logo might scratch. 

    Back in the box for the Dracula book!

    And just to be really dramatic…
