I imagine Avengers #23 is gonna see a bit of a hike with Ravonna Renslayer showing up in Loki on Disney+ and even more so if she makes it to Ant Man 3. I haven't tracked the price, too many books to keep track of, so I'm not sure how far it's gone as of now. 

great cover and JRS first work for Marvel

thanks for sharing

CGC just received my x-men 268. Can I request it be signed by Jim Lee?

unfortunately, no

general question for those who have submitted for SS remarques

on the submission form there is box where you submit details (limited to 150 characters) for your remarque 

does CGC read that info that you entered to the artist at time of signing or do you need to make sure and include some details on your window bag?

also how descriptive do you get, I know it is ultimately up to the artist's digression but 150 characters isn't a lot of info 

I didn't go into much if any detail on my submission form other than to list the character, the cover I am submitting is a pretty busy cover as it is and just don't know how much more info I need to include or just let the artist wing it and hope for the best

recent purchaser of a book from one of Dave's sales threads

great communication, well packaged, and arrived as described

would not hesitate to do business with again, buy with confidence

re: "One of more of your submissions cannot be processed as entered.  Please check the order information, and try again" error message when trying to submit for SS event

how do I know if this is due to CGC server side system issues or if it is because I did something incorrect on the submission?

I have gone back multiple times and don't see any field that calls out a mistake/error in my entry and I cannot determine if it is on CGCs side because they have refused to take the system completely down

this is crazy still can t submit

 

same, and all the while they announced a new signing today

why are they announcing new signings and not just disabling the submission forms until the issues can be fixed?  

is it still working for select people and how do I know if it's not working because I entered something wrong or not?

its working now for me, thank you!

are you sure about that, I got all the way to the end of a submission and got a "One or more of your submissions cannot be processed as entered. Please check the order information, and try again" yet there is nothing indicating any errors 

survived the blackout of the message boards and now their submission page isn't working

from a company that recently raised their prices seems they really don't want invest in tools that allow people to do business with them

Would a bag grading company grade the bags I brought home from the grocery store last night? I'm hoping for some 9.8s.

paper or plastic?

if you want the bag graded look for a bag grading company

I have a lot of comic books signed by Scott Campbell with COA, but like everyone has stayed it if CGC did not witness your SOL.

Customer satisfaction trumps in this situation.  When I ask for a signature to be added to a particular book, does my facilitator tell me "tough luck" because they don't want to go dive through the pile of books to make the addition?  No.  Why should a million dollar business provide worst service than someone operating a private business out of their home?  Logistically, I would hope that when my book is received, it's assigned a barcode or reference number and then filed away until it's my turn to get graded.  If a customer wants a book changed, it should just be the case of pulling up the reference number and identifying where that's stored.  This shouldn't be like diving for the Ark of the Covenant at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark.  As with anything else, money talks.  The fact that a book isn't in a windowed bag shouldn't be a limiting factor.  They charge $5 to remove a book from a slab.  Go ahead and charge $5 for a windowed bag then.  Just another add-on service/source of revenue.  As a customer, I'd happily pay $30 for some intern to go find my book instead of taking the risk of the book being mailed back to me, then having to package it up, pay shipping charges, slabbing charges all over again, and the added time the book is with the post office.

sounds like you have all the makings to start your own successful grading company .... good luck in your venture

Damn, I'd call back and ask to speak to a manager.  That's some bull poop if they can't pull your submission and move it to a different pile.

it isn't about just moving a book to a different pile

stop for a second and put yourself in the company's position .... first they have to even locate the book, the invoicing and billing would be different and would all need to be redone, there is no window bag on the book (something they say they will not accept for SS submissions) .... if they make an exception for one person how many others do they need to do the same for .... logistical nightmare not to mention liability to them if something happens to the book in the process.

OMG - this is perfect. “The Power Broker...Is it Mephisto?”

 

early in this series I believed there was a chance (though a bit of a longshot) that the unrevealed character in the shadows being referred to as the Power Broker could actually be Kingpin.   Crime lord, connection with art gallery, etc 

After the series concluded I wasn’t any closer or further to believing, however one thing just occurred this evening that now has me still considering .... I happened to be rewatching Netflix’s Daredevil season 1 and just made my way to episode 12 and got to the part at the end where ...... spoilers ahead for anyone who hasn’t seen it and doesn’t want to be spoiled .... Kingpin confronts Ben Urich in his apartment .... as the camera focuses in on Fisk, he is sitting in front of Urich’s bookcase and there is a book on the shelf with a white dust-jacket that clearly stands out .... title of the book, “The Power Broker”

Totally understand I'm NOT experienced in what makes a 9.5 vs a 9.8 etc  

nothing will make a book a 9.5 no matter how hard you try
