  1. Just because it was under $12! not a big fan of black panther, but I've never really read any either and from 1973, it's probably only collected in high grade and this is just a VG-to VG copy----- well you never know-- this day off before the con tomorrow, I thought that I'd try something new 1st in his own title
  2. I thought real hard about buying auto/photo-op with her, so I'm glad I opted out I got Jay and Silent Bob last year, and Eliza Dushku was in Jay and Silent Bob strikes back. I also remembered her from a cameo in the big bang theory
  3. @Likwid6 Also be sure to take a CGC witness for any comics/magazines for those sigs I'm sure you've got it covered, if you need any help or question's feel free to ask or pm the con is 2 day's away !!
  4. Welcome to the Boards You'll be in good company
  5. This is the first time I've ever said this for real but DON'T DRINK THE KOOL AID haha
  6. Around December wasn't bad, same with January IMO. Amazing what a couple of months can do.
  7. That's what I was thinking, but didn't have the eloquence to say it. It's like 9.8 is the top and they don't think that there is anything after that. This is the way it was last year IMO around this time during the "case scandal". I submitted around this time last year like 10 books and all of them came back 9.6 with no 9.8 and they all looked nice.
  8. That's some sweet goodness Love when being a kid pays off
  9. ah CGC comics is 506, didn't see it at first Thanks @RattyLa
  10. http://fanexpodallas.com/schedule/ This is the schedule progam, in it shows the tables and #'s, it's small print and hard to manage... @mysterio
  11. I believe that they've now sent out an email with this info...at HALL D from 11 - 8pm on Thursday 9am-6pm FRI 9am-6pm SAT 9am-3pm SUN between these times to pick up wrist bands
  12. I also tried to find CGC's booth in the program and didn't see it. It may be obvious once there, but: Does anyone have CGC's booth #??
  13. Then I might do that, is the form pretty straightforward? I mean for first timers? The LCS was charging me like $40 per modern, so I'd probably save some money on my own account but haven't worked out the math, for as mentioned: bubble rap, cardboard, shipping to and from, what insurane etc. It just always seems a hassle, I know you get some kind of percentage discount though so (don't laugh or scold I'm a little embarrased about the whole thing) I'm probably losing money at the LCS...
  14. I don't know, I should but I don't send that much and my LCS only charges me what they're charged. I haven't had the will to submit on my own or to get my own account. Whenever, I get money enough to buy the level of CGC I want, I end up spending it on my collection. Plus I don't sell, lame excuse, but I'm not familiar with packaging etc. I am a little nervous to do it on my own, because I've been satisfied with the LCS and have been using them for a couple of years. I know that I should
  15. Mine were submitted to CCS through LCS in early January and then on to CGC, they got to be a CGC by now, right? Well time to call the LCS, it was the longest teir TAT. If CGC is moving quickly should be soon. Its been 10 1/2 to 11 1/2 weeks
  16. Thanks I'm hoping for the best should post when they all get back from SS and CGC, don't know how long it will take
  17. I don't know if this is an appropriate question but here goes: Did they do this type of grading so that once graded and having the sticker, people can show what is a 9.6, 9.8, 6.0 etc, so people can then take pictures and compare to other graded company items.....?
  18. I'm still going with 6.0 to 6.5 depending on what the inside looks like. The subscription crease doesn't bother me to much, but it might drop it to 5.0 to 5.5. Looks like the crease doesn't break color all the way down, so nice mid-grade copy oh I forot the stain, I'll stick to 5.0 to 5.5
  19. PGM-Xmen 266 This is the one I'll bring to the con this weekend to be signed by Jim Lee, looks like maybe a little soft corner at top left of spine; great centering though and 3 sharp corners any help appreciated
  20. how much do you charge for your services I found one raw, didn't press it though, thought it'd come back in the 9's at worst 8.5, came back 8.0 even those who held it in hand raw were surprised.....plus at LCS nearly every copy they've had for a while has been priced at $300 raw......
