There is one. Someone will post the link ... if they don't, I'll go find it. If you PM me I'll send you form instructions I give to everyone I buy books off of on feebay. Just not now ... in spite of my insomnia, I need to force myself to go to bed.

I e-mail sellers tfor specificaitons on packaging.. they neglet to tape it in center of the dam carboard to prevent it from shiffting.. Now I have two # 1's with non color breaking creases at the bottom left corner of book.. dammit.. I really getting sick of this.. they would of been two 9.8's if it wasn't for bad packing.. ONCE AGAIN.. this happens.. Its getting really annoying how i have to hold these peoples hands every single step of the way to pack a comic book properly.. Its quite annoying sending countless e-mails to determine if they will properly ship it.. If i don't do this sometimes, it will arrive inside a cereal box, envelope, or multiple spine bends due to it being able to go inside the mailbox..

 

I prefer that they use plastic wrap to seal a piece of cardboard to each side of the book b/c some jerks (who are angry that I made a request about how the book is shipped) will use so much tape that I've had to cut comics out of their bag with an exacto knife and when they tape too much and use an already bent piece of cardboard the comic bends where the cardboard is bent which is just as bad as damage from shifting and sometimes worse. It's a shame that we can't get people who know how to pack books or even who care enough to follow directions to

yea sellers are jerks for not packaging exactly how you want. You two have way too much time on your hands.

Yeah, I wouldn't do this either. Four small pieces of blue painters tape work best, it holds well and peals right off.

ah, i must have missed that, thanks.....

No problem.

Once he told me that it became the reason why I have bought every graphite cover.

 

:cry:

 

I really wanted that #5 graphite to go with my pencil version. It'd look so nice in a 3 set frame with the pencil next to the graphite next to a copy of the comic when it comes out. :baiting:

Here's the deal with Revival #2 Most of the print run was damaged during shipment to dealers...blame DIAMOND.

 

Dealers, rather than putting these on the shelves, opted out to return them to Diamond with the anticipation that they would be replaced.

 

That is the source of information.

 

I have 2 copies, 1 with bend in top right corner, one that is 'wavy' according to Bagel, and 2 on their way from midtown (we'll see how they look)

 

Just got my 2 from midtown, both are easy 9.8's.
