So sorry for your loss mike… deepest condolences..

My shot in the dark grades have been submitted..  thanks for running the grading contest @Point Five

The whole Stan vs Kirby and how much credit they deserve debate can go on for a long time… as the only people who truly know are them and the people that worked on the books at that time.

But for us at least we know that they all had some part in creating the stories we loved as kids, teens and adults and without one of them we might not have had the chance to experience these awesome stories.

so we might not know who deserves more credit etc but we at least we know who helped create the characters we love. Whether it was a small part or a key stone part all pieces no matter how small or big were important in making those books into what we know and treasure today! 

Lol

Unfortunately this is a very old and very untrue myth, Diamond clamshells are very common and can be bought in excellent condition for the same price as all the other Disneys.

Also, before anyone brings it up, The Little Mermaid with the &$#&@ on the cover isn’t worth anything either. ☺️

I dunno eBay sold listings say otherwise. I mean there are quite a few all can’t be fake completed sales.

Very interesting to see the vhs graded stuff I know there’s a market for Diamond Disney classics some vhs tapes sell for 1k and above

If you're asking about the new spinner rack. I got it through my lcs. They got it through Diamond distribution. Diamond doesn't have it in stock though they get it in from someone else when ordered. It cost me about $260 and my lcs let me buy it at their cost price which was nice of them. 👍

Yeah I was asking about the spinner. Nice grab! Maybe I’ll talk to my LCS and let them keep any eye out for me.

Not a room, just a spinner rack that's not vintage and is new. Stacked with my birthday books raw and how they would have rye looked on a spinner rack back in the day. Still hunting books I need and buying copies of books I've already gotten to give it that original look.

Where did you get these modern repops from? 

Never seen this or experienced this but it’s probably because the cons I go to are way to crowded now in the GTA…

In before the lock

It's part of my Shaw package here in BC. Rogers might have it

I’ll have to check it called is it called me tv in BC 

How do I watch this in canada any links? 

I grab these locally in the GTA as they are generally cheaper than paying shipping costs etc of e gerber… but I do  put my valuable books in the gerber boards and bags, but use these for my filler and cheap books.

I can't believe how helpful these forums have been.  This is kind of a nerve-wracking process because the comics have personal/ financial to them.

I will bring them slabbed and graded. (they aren't signed yet)  then get them cracked by the CGC partner/fascillitator, then signed. If i'm following correctly. 

thanks for your help

Also to add to the advice might want to contact the facilitator and ask them about the services etc and just do a little follow up with them about all your questions here to make sure…

Lol I submitted last night I got the 

long shot in the dark grades submitted. Thanks for running the contest Mike. Time to go watch the Toronto Maple leafs game and enjoy a cold beer to forget about my awful grading skills . 

i think it was for Canadian users (maybe), but got a email about it and used it last night. I bit the bullet and picked up that new Secret cover Spiderboy ... i know the FOMO got me this time since i missed Miles first App.years ago and I don't want to pay close to 1k$ for it now.  

Only knew him though the posts on the Forum but seemed like a great guy; may he rest in peace... 

Deepest condolences to his family and friends.
