    Also not worth the trip, imo, but another option is a road trip.

    The Strange Adventures goes into my "Earth from afar" collection. (no spandex allowed)

    How is the grading with this greased lightning service?
  6. Gaard
    Cool. So, regardless of whether or not they take any responsibility to your damaged slabs, they're still going to reholder them?

    This is good news ... I think. " Let’s hope they agree with my assessments for all of them." Are you saying that they still have to agree that they're bad enough to reholder?

    Grader Notes

    When I was growing up, we had a basket next to the toilet specifically for magazines and stuff.

    On a scale from 1 to 10, SPEED gets a 1 on the 'give a !@#$ ' scale. RELIABILITY gets a 10 on the same scale. USPS has never given me a problem with CGC shipments. I use USPS because of the insurance limits with FedEx and UPS.

    I'm never sure. [mumbles] I suck at grading. [/mumbles]

    People and their agendas. @FFB Let me quote Mr. Arigato from a few pages ago, "it's time to drop this."

    Customer - "WTF?" CGC - "We're extremely busy. Waddaya expect?" Customer - "I understand you're busy, but still." CGC - "Deal." @Jennifer F. " Every book that leaves our office does go through quality control. " Some of these QC issues are dumbfounding.

    It's bad enough that moms throw comics in the trash, but LCSs? Sacrilege!

    @ChrispyC66 Any movement on your 6/18 sub? Mine's still at G/E/I.

    Yeah, I know. I'm reaching.

    For me personally, this is one of the best reasons to sell your collection. Even though I've never been, I'm scared as hell of jails/prisons. I'm such a wuss.

    I always try to be spot-on when declaring the FMV of the comics in my submissions. Recently, I looked back at some of my submissions in years past, using the "View My Packing Slips" link, and tears came to my eyes when I realized how cheap I must've let some of these comics go for (compared to today's prices).

    Conclusions?

    Speaking of Dylan, is this him? (complaint filed 01/06/2021) https://www.bbb.org/us/fl/sarasota/profile/collectibles/certified-guaranty-company-llc-0653-48000334/complaints

    You can breathe again. And your customers, too.

    My rule of thumb... Never let anyone do anything with my comics if I can do it myself. This includes packing and shipping them. It's not that I don't trust people. I just don't trust them that much.

    FF 337. I like Simonson, so naturally these would be worth a ton in the future. Bought 12 copies. Still have them. Somewhere.

    Out of curiosity, has anyone gotten a reply from GC after submitting an observation/complaint about the new upgrade to the Helpdesk?
  25. Gaard
    Yes, but should we have to? Now excuse me while I go hold my breathe until these boards are fixed.
