It would look just as nice in a simple mylar. It's subjective, but a great price on this particular book would be well under $400.

Im in the same boat, although I'm missing a couple. My thoughts are I'll stick it out to the 100th Anniversary Issues.

What part of this am I misunderstanding. You have 6,000 comics of which some 600 are silver-moderns that are 9.6-9.8

When a newcomer posts something like this, it doesn't fill me with confidence that they understand the market. Perhaps you do, perhaps you don't, but my advice would be to be very careful before sending in 100 books. Saying you have boxes of silver age that will grade 9.6-9.8 doesn't inspire confidence, either.

Please,Sir. May I have another. This is no longer the 1970s. It is not acceptable to have to send alternates in with your order in case a book is sold out. I honestly can't believe many people will send Metro a check and if a book isn't in stock, they simply pick out other books and call that good customer service. If it were my customer, I'd be on the phone with them and offer an IMMEDIATE refund thru paypal. even if it cost me a few dollars. If your business plan requires the cooperation of untold numbers of strangers to follow thru on something for you to succeed, it's a pretty weak plan to begin with.

1) No idea 2) I think you are underestimating it vastly. I'm thinking it will run in the hundreds. 3) Do you understand the labels? Once restored, this will get a purple label. Purple labels sell for a fraction of what a universal label sells for.

I don't use them, but i'm sure people here do. Ask someone to split the order with you.

What a utter pile of . Please, Sir. I know I sent you $4200 for a book I really really wanted but if you can't get me what I want, I'Il happily take store credit and find something. I'll happily settle for books lower on my want list because asking for a refund is too much work. I've done a fair amount of buying from Metro and knew Vincent before he joined them. None of that matters here. They are wrong. Their business model has a flaw in it, and they are aware of it but don't see the need to fix it.

If you didn't declare a value, it's $50. If you want more, even if it insured you have to show the books worth, and good luck trying to convince them a two inch tear ruins the books value.

Really. The guy paid for the book April 12th. This week, it will be a full two months. It's obviously too much to expect them to follow thru on a small thing like this. It sucks that people feel the need to defend bad behavior. The bizarre thing is responding to a refund request by saying metro should refund the money and be done with the OP.

Perhaps if you tell us what you want to hear, someone will post it for you. Otherwise, you just have to take your chances and accept peoples opinions for what they are.

Same logic that says cutting a little coupon or stamp kills the grade, even though no one will ever see the affected pages.

If you wish to stop being poor, don't tie up a major piece of your capital for six months to ring out an extra $25 dollars.

I wouldn't grade it more than a 6.0, but I've no idea how CGC handles this sort of thing.

I did a show where Simmons and the Spawn Mobile were the featured guests. I'll never forget that show at Hofstra as someone was walking around with a short box of Sgt Fury 13's that seemed like it came from the MH2 collection.

Mr Simmons is a real person. The other heroes are fictional.

My own rule of thumb is I avoid anything where the whole price isn't on the front cover.

That all sounds great but customer service reps can only do what their management allows them. For all we know, events like this are built into their business plan. It's obviously not a rare event. What company would give up an extra $50,000 grand a month in no interest loans until their customers call them on it. Is it unreasonable to assume this problem isn't exclusive to the OP but almost certainly happens several times each month, especially in today's rising market I appreciate Micahs efforts to explain his companies policies but no one can sugarcoat this issue.

I dont deal with many Archie collectors, but mcs has the book you posted- That wilkins boy 11 for $6 in Fine. Either you are misreading your uncles records or he got ripped off.

Cant answer your questions as I'm in the American South West but how will you be shipping your books back, and how many will you be shipping?

Hopefully, this is a teaser rate to get product and eyes on their site. I don't think is is sustainable as a business model but would love to be proven wrong.

I used to buy from comic connect and comiclink and would wait 3-4 weeks from the auctions end to receive my books. Then I added mycomicshops auctions into the mix and was stunned when MCS routinely got me my books in a week to ten days. When I mentioned this to a metro rep while looking for asking where my winnings were, I was reminded they were the worlds leading comic dealer and that I was lucky that they continued to sell to the low end of the market as well as to their millionaire clients. At least that was the impression they gave me. Some companies adapt an attitude that if it ain't broke ,don't fix it while others try to improve constantly. I'm surprised so many people are okay with waiting a month to get their merchandise. I suppose it's another matter of lower expectations. Speaking for myself, when I ask for a scan of a back cover, I don't want to hear that we sell million dollars comics, why would we waste time scanning the back cover of book that might sell for $60.
