  1. Thanks for the update. Hopefully soon.... You still can't see the grade until it lists as shipped, correct? 800 books!!! Woah Once books are finalized in quality control you can get the grades. I did pretty good. Books got about what I thought they would be. 3x 9.8s, a 9.6, and a 9.2
  2. Modern Slow Track (5 Books) Rec'd 5/26 Verified 6/27 Scheduled for grading 6/28 Graded 8/22 Quality Control 8/26
  3. I've been making a point to be more active on the boards. This week from CGC is one of my favorite spots to check out. You're killing it about every week Greggy!
  4. Here's my copy that I thought I would share. Picked it up at a garage sale last year. It was the only one of the Sandman books that was in a bag & board. Issues were 1 - 10 with a couple missing. Sadly no #8. Can't believe I waited so long to send this in. Was ecstatic when I found out it hit 9.8
  5. Zendaya's casting name was for Michelle, not Mary Jane, so....who knows. They're saying Tiffany Espensen is cast as Cindy. Time to grab those ASM4 Ramos variant again, Personally I love the character. Will be nice to have her get more attention. So many possibilities Zendaya's casting name was for Michelle, not Mary Jane, so....who knows. Mary Jane was casting as Michelle. So the name Cindy may be a cover for another character. Would it be too much of a stretch for the M to stand for Michelle rather than Mary? Stories had already said that they weren't going to reveal her to be MJ until the end of the film (not much of a twist, but oh well...) so that would have been how they covered that. Not at all. So what does the "C' in Cindy stand for. (Black) Cat?! Spider Gwen is a stretch here unless they going total opposite of the character which has happened in the past. So who knows. Buyers currently think its Silk cant really say I blame them. Jona Xiao was recently cast. Silk's mom??
  6. From what I understand the amount that came in from SDCC was pretty epic
  7. Thats great to hear. Congrats on the grades! If yours were received the 20th hopefully mine will be done soon since they checked in on the 26th
  8. I haven't subbed any silver age lately, but I'm going to have to agree with some of the other recent posters on this thread. Grading is a smidge tight right now. At least for copper and moderns
  9. A month is about right. I sent 4 books in for reholders recently and that's about how long it took
  10. Maybe my modern prescreen from may 11th will start to move soon. I hope so.I never had books be sfg for so long son of a person_without_enough_empathy they moved to graded today now how long is the QC wait this could be the longest I've had books at cgc in a while. Nice! Good news for both of us today I'm hoping by next week they ship or at least QC. I like pre screening. Going to have to another one of those soon
  11. Maybe my modern prescreen from may 11th will start to move soon. I hope so.I never had books be sfg for so long

One can only hope it's Silk. She does look the part

  17. Thank you very much! I'm digging the way it looks next to my Wolverine 1
  18. A book I've dreamed of owning since I was a kid. :-) It's been a little while since my last journal. I'm very proud to be able to add this book to my collection. It was one of those books I was feeling like it was becoming more and more out of my reach. Indeed when I got my ASM129 it was a choice between that book and a Hulk 181. As it turned out I'm very glad with how everything ended up falling into place. I got my ASM129 before the spike of the Daredevil season 2 announcements, and this year I was ecstatic for it to be able to bump up in grade. When I first got back into collecting and heard about CGC books. I watched a lot of you tube videos of other peoples collections. A lot of people would say after they had been collecting for a while that they wanted to consolidate and be able to get a Hulk 181. I buried that in the back of my mind somewhere. I always told myself if I ever cam across a good deal on a 181 I would go for it. All the conventions I've been to buying a raw 181 from dealers wasn't worth it and almost always the condition wasn't that good. A few years goes by. The majority of my CGC collecting has been books I submitted myself and I very seldom sold any as I was trying to build up my volume of graded books. I have a comic room at home where I have most of my books on display on ikea shelves. I had been at capacity for some time and only sold a few books here and there to fund more grading and signature series costs. Then one of my buddies online came across one of those huge basement collections and was helping the owner sell it. I told him to let me know if the 181 would be for sale. He did and I made an offer on it. I was thinking the grade was around a 7.5 maybe an 8.0. I even posted it on the spare my grade section. The general consensus was 8.0-8.5. Luckily I had the inventory of smaller books and a few bigger ones to sell real fast. CCS did a fantastic job on my book! I was absolutely thrilled when it came back a 9.0!!! Now I am the proud owner of this book. Pretty cool as I got it from an original owner collection like most of my other big books. It really completes my current collection and ties in my bronze to copper to modern age books. I haven't been able to do much signature series books this year but it's all been worth it and I hope to do some more submissions next year.
