    [CLOSED] BOOK ADDED: Walking Dead #1 CGC 9.8

    in Copper / Modern Age Only

    Posted · Edited by JakeM
    Change title because books sold

    Letting go of my Walking Dead keys to make room for other pieces in my collection, as well others now!

    My Kudos thread: https://www.cgccomics.com/boards/topic/401521-jakem-jake-amp-robert-from-montreal-feedback-thread/

    Shipping: from Canada to the US is $12 USD for first book, add $2 USD for each additional book - books sent out every Friday as I have to travel a half hour to get to the discount post office. Includes insurance. Shipping internationally or within Canada (especially if you're in a rural area) varies - so contact me and I'll get you a quote straight away. I will charge you my exact cost.

    Accepted Payments: PayPal, or Interac E-Transfer/EMT if you're in Canada for the comparable exchange rate.

    Returns: No returns on CGC graded books.

    No buyers from HOS or on probation plz.

    First :takeit: trumps PM's. Let's get to it!

    The new site is really frustrating.  How do you see what a book sold for?  You can no longer track it through your watch list because it gets automatically deleted from the list once it is sold.  And their marketing emails no longer include links, so you cannot access the info that way either.  I've been a pretty regular customer of theirs over the years, but this change seems designed solely to frustrate customers.  It's frustrating enough that I may stop being one. 

    It makes my computer run super hot. My laptop's processor and fan goes crazy if I spend any amount of time on the website. Furthermore, ended auctions are interspersed with ongoing auctions, which makes it difficult to navigate while books are being auctioned off. Not very user-friendly, but I say we give them a pass and see if they can fix it for their next auction.

    Shipping: from Canada to the US is $20 USD. Shipping internationally or within Canada varies - so contact me and I'll get you a quote straight away. It's a heavy 5lb book, after all.

    Accepted Payments: Paypal (or Interac E-Transfer if you're in Canada).

    Returns: Within 7 days of receiving the book, return shipping costs are your responsibility.

    No buyers from HOS or on probation plz.

    Stan Lee and Max

    While we've dealt with Max before, I don't have any further info as that was years ago. Anyone who does have any further info is probably under an NDA about any personal dealings with Stan/Max. Still rather surprised to hear about this. Stan and Max seemed to have a lot of mutual respect for one another.

    The last time I saw Max and Stan together at an event was either D23 back in July, or very shortly after Stan's wife passed away. Though that was just a video on Twitter I saw of them together at some party. I didn't personally witness this. Just providing some sort of timeline.

    Anyway, I'd say just ask around at some cons if you want to know more info. I don't think anyone is going to put any of what they know in writing - if they know anything at all.

    Fan Expo Canada - August 31-September 3, 2017 Toronto, ON

    in Comic Events

    Spent Friday and Saturday at the con. Made a few purchases, but didn't see any books that REALLY spoke to me like when I bought my CSS 22 at this show last year (Didn't find a single CSS, which is sad as I'm trying to put a run together). Picked up an ASM 15, while my father picked up a great looking Batman 41. We're both getting close to completing our respective runs (ASM at around 16 issues remaining, Batman at closer to 50, but that dwindles each passing week).

    didn't get the chance to wander artist alley for once, which I'm disappointed by, but my dad's knees have been awful lately, and we had done more than enough walking for his pain threshold. Didn't want to push it.

    Dropped some books off for grading - huge kudos to CGC making the trip up to Canada.

    All in all, Fan Expo is always a good time. Will definitely make a weekend out of it again next year. Onto NYCC!
