I use MCS and it’s 10% for BIN items under $300. 8% for items over $300 or for auction items. Commissions are also capped at $1000.

It’s a great service, and I have had no major problems. (I’ve had like two non-paying buyers over the years.)

(I also use Shortboxed, but you do have to pack your comics yourself.)

I'm so sorry to hear this news. My condolences to you and your family.

I’m confused, did he pull that Iron Fist from the second pile?  Why was he upset you got yours?

His friend probably didn't realize he had a 35 cent variant of IF #14.

An 8.0 slabbed 35 cent variant actually exceeds the price of a 9.8 IF #14 in today's market.

(I've been to Comic Collector shop and they still set up at Marc's Berkeley show although possibly with a different name.)

The actual CGC part of the logo is thinner and more vertically elongated. This font part of the logo should probably not have been changed as it's part of a larger branding, and it already has a better font thickness/kerning feel.

I have slabbed a fair number of X-Men #4s and that spine split is not common. The spine split will also affect the grade and it will likely get hammered, unfortunately.

@sckao...after all these years I finally broke down and got a 3rd monitor...

Shin told me about expanding my desktop when we were doing the thread for Nik...I did use 2, but it took me a while to go to 3,

I'm up to only four on my main machine, but about 9-10 screens total in my home office.

Thanks Andy, @thirdgreenham

Thomas was an active participant at most of the Grading Contests and other Board Events from 2007 on (with Andy hosting/running many of them), and we have those PMs stretching back over 14-15 years.

My condolences to the family. 
 

Fugitoid #1 CGC 9.6 White Pages. $150 shipped in the USA. Will split shipping internationally. Thanks. 

**SOLD** to @thirdgreenham  

Has anyone noticed their new CGC slabs coming back consistently now with scuff marks due to the new FedEx shipping? (And this being consistently noted by MCS grading when entered into their system?) 

My recent CGC shipments have all been coming in beaten up, dirty, and with soft cardboard (even before the rains) which means the contents are shifting and rubbing up against each other resulting in tears to the (now thicker) plastic bags holding each slab.

Received 10/28. Shipped 12/14. (Remember that there were hurricanes in Florida up to late November.)

Inherit the Earth trade paperback CGC 9.8, for you Broadway Comics/Jim Shooter fans, I've never seen another one of these

 

I'll take it if available

I'm setting up.

CLOSED

Moved to MCS.

Fugitoid #1 CGC 6.0 OFF-WHITE TO WHITE PAGES

No comment.

Board Price: $40 shipped. $20 when combined with any other slab in this thread as an add-on.   SOLD

Fugitoid #1 CGC 8.5 OFF-WHITE TO WHITE PAGES

How many freaking Fugitoids did this guy slab? (Too many.) This one clearly did not make the grade. No pre-screen filter was used in the slabbing of these Fugitoids. Someone please give this little guy a home. (Someone paid $80 for a 6.0 in May 2021... but that was another time, a time we probably won't see again for many years.)

Board Price: $50 shipped. (Freebies thrown in, of course, to sweeten the pot.)   SOLD

Fugitoid #1 CGC 9.2 WHITE PAGES

The 9.2s actually sell for higher than the 9.4s recently... which, of course, means that they're much more collectible and a better value than the 9.4s.  (Or alternatively, these don't come up for sale that often.... Or in one thread for that matter.) 

Board Price: $101 shipped. Actually... $90 shipped. 

CGC Serial Number: 3907625002

Fugitoid #1 CGC 9.4 WHITE PAGES

Board Price: $100 shipped.  SOLD

Fugitoid #1 CGC 9.6 OFF-WHITE TO WHITE PAGES

Last sale was $108 in June, but I'm going to disregard that one.  OTHER previous sales were $167, $295, $270, and $214 in 2022.

Board Price: $225 shipped.  SOLD

Fugitoid #1 CGC 9.8 OFF-WHITE TO WHITE PAGES

Last sale was $900 in May. 56 copies in 9.8. 40 blue copies.

Board Price: $800 shipped.

CGC Serial Number: 3907625001

Hi Everyone, 

RULES:
First "takeit" in the thread wins and trumps any PM negotiations until the post has been updated as SOLD in the thread. I reserve the right to overrule takes in the event that a PM deal is concluded, and I hadn't yet had a chance to mark an item sold. Please do not edit takeits.

Payment: Payment by PayPal, Venmo, Check/MO, or Cash in person. Invoices will go out after the thread ends generally or during a lull. Payment expected within 72 hours unless we communicate and agree ahead of time. 

Shipping: Slabs listed this time include free shipping for domestic orders. International orders we'll have to discuss.

Returns: Returns are allowed within 7 days of receipt. Please inspect the images for damage or scuffs to the case before buying. This is often "normal" now for CGC slabs. Buyer is responsible for shipping cost back unless item was damaged in transit. Basically, we'll talk but it'll be fair and reasonable.

Just making this stuff up as I go along...
