  1. I've found packing them a hard foam coffin with bubble wrap around the comic/slab seems to do a pretty good job of protecting from damage but still being easily accessed. If I'm sending multiple raws, I stick 'em in a magazine mylar. They don't move, the box can take a blow, and no surgery required
  2. James bought a lot of ASM from me. Prompt payment, and a pleasure to do business with. Thanks James
  3. Alright, just checking the rules I'd go Colossus. He's the most like me, only two feet taller and I've always wished I was a little bit taller, wish I was a baller... Think I could do better than Kitty Pryde though
  4. Are we basically assuming control of them, or becoming them? Ie, could @thedude decide to be Dr. Manhattan and then decide to put some socks on?
  5. Sold a couple things to Charlie. The first thing, he asked me to hold a couple of days, and paid promptly when he said he would. Even offered to toss me a little more for shipping. Thanks again for the purchase!
  6. It depends on what you're sending, but CGC prices based on the value of the graded book, with era sections. What you saw in the video is most likely guys who missed out on 9.8 grades on their slabs for comics from the roughly 90's on. Those need to be 'perfect' to be worth anything. They cost something like $25 I think for CGC to grade, unless they are worth $200+, then they bump you up a tier and charge you more. On the other hand, if you had an Amazing Fantasy 15, it doesn't have to be perfect, but CGC will charge you a percentage of the value because it's in the tens of thousands. I think it's 3%
  7. Nope, you pay more the more it's worth
  8. While I understand the privacy concerns, if it is true as someone said earlier that CGC will withold books from dealers without payment, what the heck is the point of having 'authorized dealers'? CGC will hold your books because their authorized dealer doesn't pay, but also will not tell you where your books are even though they authorized the dealer? Paradise is obviously the one who effed up here, but if the above is true about how CGC operates, that is pretty not cool on CGC's part. Your books are trapped because you chose to send to a dealer CGC authorized to collect from and now they will not only hold them but not tell you?
  9. How long were you in Zanzibar? That's my retirement destination.
  10. I live here in Houston, so far they've been aces for me
  11. I sent mine in with the tape on, and on the prescreen rejects, and CGC cut the tape on all of them and did not replace it. So I don't think you need to worry about that. Also I bundled them in mylar magazine bags (5 per), which incidentally I did not get back.
  12. George bought twice from me. In both cases, payment was right after the and was a pleasure to do business with. Thanks again for the purchases
  13. Always liked him in DC too. More powers than Superman it seems.
  14. Worst art IMO was most of DC in the late 80-90s. It's like they purposely avoided good talent.
