  1. Wouldn't it be A-2? "A" for professional work and "2" for moderate restoration?
  2. Get one for @Get Marwood & I. They love those Mandrakes!! That's a nice Miller logo.
  3. You'll need to send that in for grading when CGC starts grading paperbacks!!
  4. Ahh. Okay. I just thought anything with that sweet King logo would be valid for the club. Even that Hagar book!
  5. I'm not sure I would say "only" those titles. Those Reading Library books have other titles... if you're including them. Quincy, Tiger, Tim Tyler.... Would you mind making hi-res scans of the FG story in your Phantom for me?
  6. I absolutely LOVE Godwin's comic work and have been searching for a missing cover copy of 17 just so that I can scan the WW story. Your copy looks beautiful. And I never see #3 in such nice shape. WOW.
  7. ThE Hard WoRK is AlreadY DoNe!! Actually, the fraud buy-back would make it even easier to make $$$ because a scrupulous collector wouldn't be analyzing the contents of the slab and asking for a refund when the book is nowhere close to 9.8.
  8. What if... the scammer is using a third party to now launder the dirty books back through CGC's fraud buy-back program?
  9. Did anyone suggest that this was only found because of the investigation into swap-gate? When I know where to look for a rat, I usually find a few more...
  10. Have I shared some of my South America Flash Gordon comics here?
  11. I hope the stolen books are recovered and returned to the rightful owners.
  12. I don't see after-production trimming. Everything looks as it should. It's pretty ugly on those outside edges, but the interiors look pretty nice. If it still has good structure, it may achieve a 2.5. That top staple looks like it's ready to pop. Handle carefully.
  13. Comicwiz put some of the key points into his journal "Who Watches the Watchmen". Interesting that they allegedly engaged in DUPLICATE labels of legitimate books. Now I have to go back to my spreadsheets and check if I've bought anything from these people.
  14. Does anyone have the Complaint available to read that's not behind a pay-wall?
  15. I don't know whether it sold or not. My recollection was that the ask was $3k. Could be that buyers of stickered barcode books just removed the stickers.
  16. Something is wrong with that holder if it's sealed all the way around. It may have been super-glued along all edges. Are you sure you're not dealing with a swap? If you don't need it as evidence, I'd go with Timmay's advice and smash the top post corners with a hammer.
  17. You will need to take a few days off to get through all this new reading material!
  18. What's the image in your "Dr Balls" logo? Some witchy stuff going on!
