Transplant Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Sweet books. You must be proud to own these books. The holiday Nutcracker makes an early appearance. I have never seen a better set of books from nik. On Greggy's behalf, I've added the implied qualifiers for those of you new to the boards.

Twistty1 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Just got these back today.....sorry the pics aren't great, I had to take them with my phone, and taking them out of the bags may have helped too....I'll repost later maybe and last but not least....... (worship) Thanks I was a little disappointed with the grade on that TOS 58 and 59 though, I thought I would get about a grade higher on each...nice books anyhow, and I was pretty happy about my grade on the Cap 100..didn't think it would get an 9.0..

Raphael Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 if you wait a year or two and resubmit the TOS 58 and 59, there's a chance for a grade bump increase your chances even further by having nik submit them for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I haven't posted in a while. And Ike ate my scanner so no scans. But these came back from CGC today. The world is now a brighter place! 9.4 Allentown off-white/white 7.0 White Richard first off your collection is just sick, incredible books. Secondly I'd have CGC revist the Tec #31 grade as I think it more a 7.5 than a 7.0. Gohti resubbed his More Fun #54 immediately after CGC gave it an 8.0 and after further review they bumped it to a 8.5 (which is what I thought it should have been in the first place).
