Sorry for the delayed response! My Wildcats Special: 070989 33888 Backlash: 070989 334038 Are yours different?

MJ jackpot, 2 bux each. For those tallying variants, the order of the comics is the same in the cover shots and insert shots. The Kull might be my first cardboard insert. A shame one of them had the coupon removed.

CGC has repeatedly and emphatically stated they don't place value on books...so how did they determine "loss of value"..?

@FFB The Overstreet Grading Guide 2nd Edition is the be-all, end-all of comic grading for me. I've practically memorized every page of that thing.

I'll be the party pooper!

But that's impossible! There's ONLY ONE IN THE WHOLE WORLD!

From the newsletter: "Have you checked out CGC’s turnaround times recently? Modern submissions are down to just 20 days, and by selecting the Fast Track option, you can get Economy submissions back in 20 days, too. Send in your books today and have them home for the holidays!" Are they kidding? Modern TAT: 20 days Fast track: 10 days (10 day reduction) Economy TAT: 235 days Economy fast track: 20 days (210 day reduction) This is a slap in the darn face, is what this is. I feel sick.

I also share the last issue love and was going to start a thread! Recent acquisitions: [Edit: oops, that Green Arrow isn't the last issue!]

Recent DC Universe acquisitions, and a couple other Pre-Pack editions I got on the cheap this weekend (I paid half off the sticker price):

Recent 50-cent bin acquisitions:

Recent post-2000 dollar-bin (or LESS) acquisitions:

Egads, @greggy Them's a lot o' books

Considering it looks like most of the offending damage is color that has been removed by creases, blunting and the like, I honestly wouldn't bother. A clean might whiten up that back cover, though. *Might.*

Just trim the top edge, thus removing the CT

And yet economy slow is still running at about 11 months

SIX DAYS for Economy (even with fast track)

Random images with no context are not very helpful. Are we all supposed to know what issue title, number, and specific variant these are?

FINALLY!!!! HOORAY!!!!!

Recent late-90s X-title newsies from the dollar bins. These range from 1997-2000. The X-Man issues are in higher grade and look great.

Recent post-2000 Marvel Newsie acquisitions from the dollar bins:

User: haloade3 Nearly two weeks after item close (for a whopping $7.99 item), during which time I re-sent their invoice and sent 2 reminder messages, I still have received no payment and no contact whatsoever. Looking at the user's feedback, I see other sellers had the same issue. BLOCK

Nice find(s)! I recently had a local shop start to sell some books for pretty cheap, so I picked up a few on a whim. When I brought them home, 2 or 3 of the 20-book lot I bought turned out to have MJ ads in them! If they weren't all bagged, I'd have gone back and tore through all 8 longboxes looking for more MJ editions!

OOF. All rejected and returned with increased damage. Wonderful. "Nice" to know it's not just the encapsulated books getting banged around (I'm looking at you, mysteriously appearing "finger bends.")
