  1. Heres my restored low grade copy. [/img]
  2. did you check the email subject? should have R and some numbers . but it is USPS and their tracking is rubbish. Thank you.There was a R and numbers in the title . DIdnt know that was the tracking number. It worked. Thank you so much,.
  3. MY items from June finally shipped today . question , no tracking numbers when they ship? This is the email I got , no tracking number . Was hoping to be able to track the package so I can make sure someone is home when it arrives. Pending Shipment Notice: To: KPV From: C G C, LLC Shipment 11/13/12 Carrier: USPS Manifesting ORIGIN 34240 Service: 1C Tracking #:
  4. Yeah , I think mine was June 28th. I may get it back for Christmas. Ho ho ho.
  5. Wish it was 90 days . mines over 110 days and counting and when i called them just the other day they were no where near it. So sorry i sent it in. I had 8 books I was going to send . This one was my first and last book submitted. Not worth the effort.
  6. Matts a real pro. Awesome job and communicated every step. I only sent it for the work on the spine (Thats all I paid for) , nothing else. $100 I believe. Matt was way behind on it and offered me all the other work for free becasue he didnt live up to the date he was supposed to get it back to me by (my birthday).. Best part was it the date on the paperwork 8-3-04 was my birthday. was kind of cool
  7. The before pictures that Matt took with the work he did. Incase anyone ever wanted to see what you get when you have a book restored.
  8. My copy I got about 20 years ago for $100. (I had it Restored). I purchased it for $200 and I got it in the mail with a letter saying they did not realize that the cover was coming detached & torn (hanging on by a staple) so they reduced it to $100 if i wanted to keep it. I kept it. A few years ago I had Matt Nelson re-attach the cover.. Did it more for restoration . he also did a staple clean , press and some slight color touch and chips etc. Sorry for the Flash on the middle of the book. Took this picture a few years ago when i got it back from Matt and its at my parents house and have not gotten a chance to go back and scan it. My prized possession
  9. I finally emailed them about my book and got a 'not even graded yet and weeks away " which i expected. . Sent in June for a gift for someone and that long passed. At the rate they told me they are up to i expect them back in 2013. I had planned on sending more books thats not happening. I understand issue happen, But this is so unreasonable. I remember I had Matt Nelson restore a book for me. He said 3 months,. he was behind and emailed me that he couldnt deliver and would take another 2 months. He also added some services to what I was asking for (I had a cover coming off to fix ) and he did more work (color tocuhes, cover wash, tear repairs etc ) all for free and shipped it back for free to make up his not getting it back to me in a reasonable time. Something this late , they should give people a discount or something. If I send a book in June it should not come back Nov or beyond.
  10. Wow , you sure aint quiet any more. Absolutely beautiful books. Possibly the best copies I have ever seen.
  11. Glad I saw this thread. I submitted a modern in June and its September and nothing. Now I know. Will wait until the end of this month to email customer service . But man it I knew it would take 3 months or more to get it back i might not have even sent it.
  12. +1 I can't stand this mentality. No one "deserves to be screwed" by a scam artist.
  13. Some newer pictures of my basement . Some of those previous ones were from a year ago and a crappy camera. .
  14. That maiden poster I had a s a teenager and when I got my pool table I remembered it (The band around a pool table) and went out and looked for it and found it on ebay. Perfect poster for a pool room.
  15. I still play it whenever I get someone over. Love that game. Iused to have best of series with my buds . We then moved to madden but when i purchased a house I had to get one along with a pool table . . just got a nock hockey game recently. Another classic.
  16. I used to have 1000 comics. Sold most (about 500 ) on ebay a few years ago. I never took my comics with me when i moved from my parents house to my first house and then my current house due to not having much space to store comics at the time. The basement was undone and took water (Finished it and had a french drain put in a few years ago) and my son was 1 at the time and was into tearing things apart so just kept them at my parents and thats where they still sit mostly. Got a small box here and one day when I am sure my son will not destroy them I will retrieve them. Not a ton , its just about 500 books. I did scan all 500 into my PC a few years ago and have photos of every book.
  17. My Basement. Turned it into a Sports-Superhero Game Room / man Cave / BAR
  18. Got that Marvel Wall Stripe / Border on Ebay Got a Spidey one around the top and the marvel superheroes one in the middle. A few auctions below. For the statue display I purchased two cheap book cases from Walmart then went to Home Depo and had clear plastic cut to the size of the shelves and covered them. Bit of variety in there , I let my wife and son put things in there , why there is a Mickey Mouse, (Also have tv shows such as Lost and 24 and a Metallica stuff) If you look at the picture of the hanging Spidey there is a shelf on the wall with my Sons Skylander figures. He is a skylander collector. Thats his thing. It so funny to see him searching Ebay for the rare figures and we run to the store and get there to get the new ones before they sell out. He likes comics BUT he is a skylander collector. I may clear a shelf form him on the "real " display. He is as pasionate about that as I was about comics at his age. That hanging Spidey I got by when i w as at WildWood NJ for the weekend and I saw a comic book / toy store right on the boardwalk. Saw this for $15.99 and jumped on it, . http://www.ebay.com/itm/MARVEL-WALL-BORDER-Wallpaper-Room-Decor-Spiderman-Hulk-/390064545120?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5ad1a89d60#ht_2238wt_1163 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Marvel-Hereos-Peel-Stick-Wall-Border-Applique-Decal-New-15-Feet-Long-/360441237673?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item53ebf8d0a9#ht_1970wt_1163 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kids-Wallpaper-Border-Marvel-X-Men-Comic-Heroes-Wall-Border-Blue-Trim-/320830152635?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ab2f79fbb#ht_2016wt_1163 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Marvel-Comics-SPIDERMAN-Wall-Paper-Border-2-ROLLS-30-FT-/230730106982?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35b8960866
  19. My office. Got a life size hanging Spidey and some artwork and statues and Star Wars stuff. Used to be alot more but my son took over part of the room . Not as great as some of the folks in here but its what I got. Also all my Fantasy Football Trophys. Got to display them .
  20. 44 but my son keeps me younger then my age. Watching adventure time or playing skylanders etc make me feel like I am a kid. Collecting comics since 10 but stopped for a bit when I went to college and got back into it mid 20's.
