I am awaiting a shipment of a $30k book from a major seller/auction house.  It was put into the usps system 6 days ago and supposed to be 2-3 day mail. (We both acknowledged it shouldn’t have been sent that way but it’s too late to change).  It has been showing:  

Shipment Received, Package Acceptance Pending

since it was shipped on August 12th.  Today is the 5th business day in transit with no update.  Typical transit time for priority mail between the shipping place and me receiving the book has been 2 days in the past.  How long is reasonable to wait for them to make me whole or find out what happened to the book and where it is.  I know the post office is having issues but no updates and no book have me worried.  

First of the two AS8 cgc 3.5’s I bought came yesterday.  Very happy to own a single copy of this book, twice as happy to own two 😁.  A definite grail for me.

Congratulations. Unless I am mistaken, that's a great price for one.

Thank you 🙏🏻 

Correction.  That AS8 is mine now. 😁

A 3.5 AS8 ending on mycomicshop in 6 days. Only at $5k. Not mine but curious how high it’ll go.

If that's the case, they should void the auctions for those books if they're consignment items; it's pretty unfair to the consignors. If they're Metro stock, then it isn't as important.

I 100% agree. I was watching a tec66 and planned to bid but then the link to it from even the emails that they sent couldn’t find it. It was also not searchable so I thought it had been pulled. That consigner got screwed. I would have paid more.

Can anyone tell me what the slight restored Tec 38 ended at ? I had the book in my watch list but now that the auction has ended it no longer is there

Also had the Tec 45 8.5 under watch, same thing. Not an easy book to find in that high grade.

@ComicConnect if possible it would be nice that watched items stay even when the auction closes. Thanks.

$38,123 for the tec38. Went long into extended bidding. 

I wonder how much the no dot blue label 4.0 will fetch that’s ending on mycomicshop in 3 days. 

🤣 thank you. Guess I’ll pass and keep my 3.5.

Does this look like color touch removal?  Was thinking on upgrading my tec58.

Oh boy is that low   Last 1.0 went for 17k 

I was the underbidder on that one at hakes too 😩

Just under $19k. I was underbidder. Great price. I should have went higher. 

Great communication and comic got here amazingly fast. Really unreal how fast it got to California from Mexico. Highly recommend. 

Take per PM

For now I have a cap 3 that’s signed by Lee and Simon, both witnessed by cgc.

It’s from the “other” company. Don’t know if I’m allowed to post the top of it. 

Just arrived today 😁

Waiting for mine to arrive from a recent auction win.  Not the biggest book for some people on these forums since there’s some slight restoration but it’s a dream grail for me.
