Bit of a miswrap, but welcome to Canada

A 9.8 is a 9.8, miswrapped be damned!

And yeah, I do think it still looks nice. I personally don't mind miswraps, they show how disposable these items were meant to be (due to the lack or care of QA for such things and cheap manufacturing) and it further amplifies the feat of having conserved the comic in its original state.

Love it! I don't mind miswraps one bit. Part of comics, part of what they are.

51 news copies of Alpha Flight #1 Canadian Price Variant have appeared on the CGC Census in the past two weeks.

http://www.cgcdata.com/cgc/search/comicid/145945/6mo

61 copes since your Dec28 update.   Thats a veritable hoard!   

Another 15 copies of Thor 337, but everything else looks very mild, in terms of new additions.

My very own epic thread!  

So I might be starting to sell off some of my books, including a bunch of key CPV.  What's going to be my best outlet?  All are raw btw.

Exactly what I was thinking actually...I think you're right that that might be the best venue.  I have a whackload of other books to move and could send them all down at once.

 

Now, do I press before sending them.  And do I put an agressive BIN o r let them run through auction.  Would be fun to see where my Blip 1 CPV in a likely 9.0+ after pressing would fall.

Noobie to Canadian price variants here. Does CGC ever label the books as "Canadian Price Variant"  on the label or only in the census? 
I just had 3 come back to me and non are labeled as Canadian. Thanks! 

You have to label it on the submission form

In bold letters

In triplicate

And they STILL miss it, case in point
