    The most disturbing part to me is the fact that he could just walk over to a shelf and steal a customers book?? And nobody saw it? I don't know what I expected but I always assumed the facility was a little more secure than that.

    It seems like this has only become public because CGC is filing an injunction in court against this couple. Otherwise we may never have heard about it.
  3. BeardedBubba
    I heard that as well.

    That's amazing! Congrats on that accomplishment. It's hard enough to get Eastman & Laird together on one book, let alone an entire cast. Well done.

    Allegedly..... a husband a wife employed at CGC stole customer books and submitted them as their own. Then selling them. That's a very quick non-detailed explanation.

    1 Book Unlimited Value Dropped at UPS 1/30 Delivered at CGC - 1/31 10:51am Scanned in at CGC - 1/31 SFG - Not yet This is my first UV submission. I wrote UV all over the box. I thought it would move along faster.

    I don't know about longboxes specifically. But I do know that delivering pallets to a residence can be tricky. It would most likely be delivered on a LTL type shipping truck that delivers to loading docks. If you can find a freight delivery service to deliver to your house you might need a forklift or something. Unless you can have them delivered to a business somewhere.

    That's funny.... I was just wondering about this today. I shipped an Unlimited Value submission this morning and struggled with a declared value. What if I overestimate and they charge me too much?

    Congrats! I was watching your first print on here and Facebook wishing I was in a position to grab it. I've sold two first prints in the past 10 years and miss them both.

    Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help. This has not been cleaned or pressed. There are a ton of fingerprint smudges. I also see spine ticks on the top. What do you all think? I'm really anxious about this one and trying to ballpark an Unlimited Value submission cost.

    Can you guys help with a Mirage #2? I am almost positive it's a 2nd print because it doesn't have the small white triangle in the bottom left corner of the front cover. But Leonardo doesn't have the chat bubble saying second printing on the inside cover. So I'm confused. I always thought the white triangle was 100%. I think I need deeper expertise than mine.

    You know on one hand it's nice to have CGC Mike on the boards to help with issues like this. But on the other hand it kind of sucks that it takes venting on the boards publicly to get an issue the attention it deserves. Sorry this happened to you. Missing out on an Eastman signing over an error like this is a bummer.
  13. BeardedBubba
    The signature won’t hurt the grade but it will get a green label. You don’t have to select the green label when submitting. They’ll assign the correct label.

    Surprisingly my last two submissions I sent this month were both delivered, loaded in the system, scheduled for grading, and billed all on the same day. I hope that becomes regular.

    Ugh... that doesn't make me feel good about my magazine submissions.
  16. BeardedBubba
    It was a 6.5. I plan on buying another 1st print someday. That’s why I like to watch the price movement.
  17. BeardedBubba
    Interesting. I hadn't seen the Clink sale. So a 15% drop from $155k to $131k, then a tiny bump to $132k just now. It will be interesting to see if the price stabilizes in the 130k range. I've been fascinated with watching the price since I sold my 1st print in 2021.
  18. BeardedBubba
    It ended at $132k (that includes the buyers premium). It's a small sample size but it looks like the price is on the decline.
  19. BeardedBubba
    Wow, that's awesome!
  20. BeardedBubba
    These just came back from CGC this morning.
  21. BeardedBubba
    These just came back from CGC this morning! Kind of bummed about #8 getting a 9.4. I've finally decided to go for a full graded set.
  22. BeardedBubba
    Blank label.... So hot right now!
  23. BeardedBubba
    I had my 12/5 moderns flip from SFG to G/QC a few hours ago.

    Happy New Year!

    Thanks for taking the time to look it over. I appreciate it.
