Not an IG expert but I think the link no longer shows their reel.

@Tbone911t,

Let me check with our graders on this. Not something we see every day. 

@MattM CS any luck with the graders? Thanks!!

I have a book with a piece missing at one of the staples. It has been taped at that spot. The tape has been colored. Can you tell me if that would garner a purple label for color touch? 

Thanks 

Sounds like maybe GST on the grading fees? I got dinged with it once

I've just received my latest submission back, and on this shipment, Canada Customs charged import fees - that's never happened before.  The documentation shows a commodity classification and description of "Plastic cases installed on comic book". Has CGC changed anything on how they ship out and return to Canada? If I am now being charged import fees for getting my own books back, this becomes a serious consideration to submitting books at all. I understand CGC does not control Canada Customs, but, something has changed so I assume that CGC changed the paperwork which triggered Canada Customs to now apply this import fee. Perhaps this is a one-off, but I won't know until my next shipment which is to be delivered to you today I believe. 

Did they charge you on the grading fees or value of the books?

Thanks. If it wasn't for the chip it would be a real stunner

Nice! #213 is my favorite of the run. Does “out in the wild” refer to a non traditional comic book sale situation? 

Not from a store, dealer, convention etc I guess. Off the Canadian equivalent of Craigslist 

Looks like the book had a piece missing which was replaced by tape, which was colored. Still just tape or color touch? Thanks for you opinion! 

Wondering how/if the missing piece in the margin will affect the overall grade. Bottom staple is detached from front cover only. Thanks for any opinions!  

Suspense #23 

Only comparable I could find 5.0 in Nov for $409

Let's do $ 250 shipped

No HOS or Probies

CDN/US destinations only

Will be shipped UPS/Fedex/USPS 

Paypal, check, or MO are fine. 

1st  in the thread wins it.

Return is ok within 2 weeks (you pay insured postage)

Think you'd get a qualified, depending on the day....

IMO it looks a lot better as is than without the box. I'd put it in a nice mylar and sell raw. 

For sale locally. Looking for a few 2nd opinions on grade before I make the drive to go see it. 
Thanks in advance!! Happy New Year

$75 ($1 over 90 day GPA). I'll pay the shipping (Canada and USA).  All proceeds to jimbo

* scratch on case

Looking for back covers - Batman #8 and Detective #38

Have the following (Whiz Comics #10?) available  - 

My favorite. Memory Lane Comics - Toronto 

Forget that book. Use this. 

As a collector of Canadian Editions of Batman and Detective here are a few observations: 

Canadian editions have no ads so more like 10 less story content. 

Stories are different issue to issue. Batman 59 for example only has 2 of the 3 Batman stories as compared to the US version. The Man who replaced Batman (1st Deadshot) is replaced by "Manhunters around the World" from World's Finest (I think?)

Interior paper quality is lower. Covers have no gloss.   

Hadn't posted since I picked this up

Wait. @Tbone911t

Where in Canada are you? Daves in Montreal and I'm near Toronto!

Just outside of Halifax. 

Had a 1972 911t which had been imported to Canada from Germany. Gemini blue with a houndstooth interior. Man I loved that car.

Bought it in 1992 for 15k. Was forced to sell in 2013 unfortunately, I did get 55k for it though.......
