Title pretty much sums it up. I have a pretty large order in my cart but they are out of bags/boards. Anyone ever get books from them like this??? Seems a little risky to me. After my last dreadful MCS order, I don't think I'm gonna get books online anymore except TFAW, and a couple of ebay stores I trust.

Ah so it's the books you ordered that can't be bagged and boarded that worries you. I thought it was in addition to your order.

:facepalm:This is the first I've realized it meant anything except what Fingh said...

This is very scary, normally it would have been my first guess...too many memes have fried my brain.

If you are a grade junky, why would you even consider buying books from someone too lazy to bag and board in the first place? How can they keep the books in the same condition if they are all naked?unprotected? (I do have to stop reading memes;).

 

SNAFU? :shrug:

I've never heard of them - are they that bad that they would mess up an order just because every comic isn't bagged and boarded?

They do a great job. I just don't know how 25 comics are gonna fair just in a box even if they "secure" them. I have ordered from them twice and got really sharp books that were packed well. I can't say the same for my last MCS or Midtown order. MCS sent me 9.2 and below comics that were all bought as NM. One is an 8.0, and not from shipping damage. When I buy comics as NM, I want 9.4 copies, not 8.0-9.0. TFAW is my go to store now for online comic shopping.
