Vision75 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 That is about as nice as an apparent "Poor" as anyone will ever see!! Good news for you is that I nodded off about 10:30pm EST on Sunday. Otherwise, you would have had some serious competition in that price range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cousin itt Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 (edited) Thanks! I have had so many problems with this one, like it's cursed or something... from getting lost in the mail for over a week after I bought it, to having a restoration-checker who was only supposed to screen it decide to completely remove the spines of the 4 center wraps without asking... and now I just noticed - there's a fingernail inside the case!!!!!! Right over cap's face!!!!! (Either that or a very thick white hair.) WTF else is going to go wrong with this one? Edit: Actually, I think it's probably just a hair.

cousin itt Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Cool. Actually, my beat up cap 41 is also getting signed by him. (It's probably a 1.0, maybe a 1.5.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgallo Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 to having a restoration-checker who was only supposed to screen it decide to completely remove the spines of the 4 center wraps without asking... Wait WHAT..... Who the hell did that. What purpose would that even serve..... James G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cousin itt Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 The purpose was to remove glue from the spines of the 4 center wraps. As to who, I'd rather not say. I don't feel like getting involved in some big public thing. It must just have been some kind of miscommunication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
