Buyers, should we create a thread somewhere and post our Have/Want lists? I'm planning on bringing a few books myself and it would be good to know which ones might have the best potential to trade or sell on Saturday.

you don't necessarily get a table ( you can use one to put your stuff on )

you pay $10 for the privilege of using the room we had to rent and selling to other collectors and dealers. it helps us pay for the room rental.  T.

Sorry I meant are the any problems having them with me at the show on Sunday to offer for trade. Happy to pay the $10 on Saturday to show in the room.

OK everybody arriving a day early, I reserved the room at the Ayers Hotel in Yorba Linda from 3:30 till 6:30 on Saturday night for a comics tail gate.

This means you can bring that box of comics you have laying around and try to sell them to each other or the dealers there.

The room isn't free so the plan is $10 per box up to three boxes pay Terry O'Neill  or Jamie Graham on the honor system.

tables and chairs will be provided bring you own food and drink. Please let me know in advance if you want to do this so I can figure the logistics.

This is especially good for those of you that have a few comics to sell but don't want to or can't get a dealer table for the main show.

Hope to see you all there

Will be coming in from New Mexico and hope to be at the hotel by 4 on Saturday. I'll likely be bringing some slabs in a backpack for sale/trade but don't think I'd need a table. Any problems with me having them at the show to offer to dealers for trade?

I am currently in the process of foolishly selling a pretty nice collection. 

Bye-bye Hulk 1, AF 15, Showcase 4, X-Men 1, yada yada yada. I'm keeping lots of great stuff I truly love and paying off the house. 

Zero sellers remorse thus far, wish me luck that it continues!

Tell me more about the X-Men 1?

Same. Can't see any invoices.

As an aside does CGC ever ship on Saturdays?

Modern  Received 11/17  Shipped 12/06

Impressive!

Picked up the Mattina Venomverse 1 Scott's Collectables Blue Labels from CGC today - all 9.8s. They will ship in the morning. Thanks for your patience.

Are those the virgins and did if so did CGC let the printer error along the spine slide? I haven’t subbed my raw yet but I’m seeing a lot of 9.4s and 9.6s on eBay.

CGC does reholders in about a week.

Currently shows 4 weeks on the site. The 5 weeks came from the person on FB who originally complained and was told that number by CGC. *shrug*

Received my single book shipment today. Registered Mail and was packed with bubble wrap in a large box. Not sure what the case is with FedEx shipments.

The fake death scene felt like such a ratings grab it turned me off and some other people i know. I still watch the show show but it felt like lazy writing. Why would one of the highest watched shows do such a low blow cheap writing tactic? It was a soap opera move. 

I think a big part of those twists is simply Kirkman trying to keep the viewers who also read the comics guessing. We know who is supposed to die, when and how. The Glenn thing was a bit WTF-ish but I appreciate that they are trying to keep the story fresh. I don't think I'd be as interested in the show if it just kept right alongside the comics.

I can suggest a permanent fix that I'm sure would work. 'Pack them properly'. 

Hopefully they will make it good. What makes me mad is that people fast tracked their books and now have to wait 5 weeks for a reholder.

According to one of the CGC employees on Facebook, management is aware of the issue and has implemented a "fix" to the packaging to take care of it. Sounded like they will continue using these mailers for 1 and 2 book shipments though.

I just sent 3 books in that will come back in 2 shipments. I'm nervous.

So wait if I give them my own UPS account number to use they still don't add the insurance? Or do I just have to tell them to?

And assuming he had a 20% discount this weekend on eBay the buyer made out like a bandit 

Off topic but is there a post where people put up the latest eBay coupons? I totally missed the 20% this weekend.
