Hi Guys,

I know how excited you are and it is killing you waiting for grades and ship dates. BELIEVE Me I'm in your camp on this... so don't take this the wrong way but...

 

PLEASE do not ask me for updates on your books one week after a show.

 

PLEASE do NOT ask me for updates TWO weeks after a show.

 

 

These are extremely unrealistic requests.

 

I cannot even see grades till after a books SHIPS.

 

If you fast tracked your books, you're looking at 4 to 5 weeks from the time the books arrive at CGC.

 

So for example----

 

LONDON books shipped from LSCC on 2/25

It took about 7 to 10 days to cross the ocean.

So we'll use March 6th as a good start point.

Books received to CGC on 3/6

Books verified about 3 days after that.

Books aren't even SCHEDULED for grading until right around now, being 3/18

 

Books will not be finalized for another week, encapsulated a week after that.

 

Books will begin to ship out roughly 5 weeks from point of entry, IF you did fast track.

 

You guys have got to stop bombarding me with requests for updates because this is a process that I have zero control over. All I can ask is that you please have some patience on this, I can not make it go any faster, and asking me every couple days does not expedite the process.

 

Thank you.

Hey Rich,

 

I didn't submit anything for London but I would like to know everyone else's grades, can you let me know?

 

Also, I'd like you to add "Sinnamon" to the registry, cuz I love mid-90's teetaw books.

Thanks, I'll hang up and listen for my answer.

Rich I'm kicking myself. I was at Mad Monster and would've LOVED a SS Gunnar Hansen book.

 

What's the status with Norman Reedus and Michael Rooker at WW Philly - will those be attainable sigs at the show?

John Totleben s/s op Round #3

 

John has graciously offered to do another signing and sketch op.

 

The prices have gone up a bit, but you certainly get what you pay for.

Keep in mind, John does take his time, it's slow going when you can't see much more the the size of a quarter, but it's worth it.

Also, I don't think it'll take as long as last time.

 

Signature Series only (no sketches) $75 (these are all fast track)

Prices include everything---grading, John's fee, shipping, invoice fee, etc.

 

Signature with small head sketch - $135 (these are all fast track)

Prices include everything---grading, John's fee, shipping, invoice fee, etc.

 

Swamp Thing TPB with sketch

**(These TPB are provided by John, from his personal files. Don't know if this makes a difference or not, and while no promises....every single TPB that John provided for the last op ALL hit 9.8) - $275

 

Sketch covers ---

Bust, your choice of any character - $400

Full figure, your choice of any character $675

 

John's schedule right now is open for the entire month of April, so get me your books ASAP.

Rich, I sent a PM too, but I know a lot of them get lost in the shuffle.

Regarding the sketch op 1.

 

You managed to call me me the one day this week I was replacing my old phone. I saw you called, but was unable to really get the message and I don't have your number.

 

If you could PM me, or call me back at that same number, that would be great. thank you.

 

Cameron
