Martin Sinescu Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Packing is great, never had anything damaged, and the individual boxes they use for graded books are the best. Hutch88, porcupine48 and The Lions Den 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solitude Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Been Quite a few years for me..but they were great..what they said was 9.8 really was 9.8..i cant remember them not being spot on for grades and shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Adam Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Very disappointing. Bought a Crime Suspenstories #22 from MCS that they graded a 1.8 and found out when I sent it in to CGC that it was actually a 3.0. Terrible under-grading. Don't buy comics there. Leave them for me.

revat Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 also, if you look in the Comic General subforum, you can find more than a few threads on mycomicshop or 'MCS'. The forum has a search function to help you search. But the feedback already given seems pretty consistent with my experience as well. For books they buy from others or consign for others, they are generally UNDERGRADED. For books that are just part of their backstock, I would say its a little less consistent (might get a lesser one OR a better one), but on average the grading is still solid.

SOTIcollector Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 I've bought from them many times. Every time, they met or exceeded my expectations. They even went way above and beyond with a request I had. I recommend them without reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilskip Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 I've been using MCS for about 15 years. I'd rather sell/trade comics with them than use ebay for that purpose. If I have a problem, they fix it right away, not later. I just sent them a box of transactions just a few hours ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtv2222 Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 thanks for all of the feedback guys... reason asking is because i recently purchased a Walking Dead #1 CGC 9.8 from them and it came poorly packaged (absolute joke) and the CGC case was cracked in the top right corner. The book seemed to be undamaged however. They offered a full refund or could send it to CGC first to see if the grade stays a 9.8 and obviously refund me if it came back worse. I told them i still want it if it is indeed a 9.8 after CGC regrades... but feel i derserve a 10% discount at least for all of the trouble.. customer service treated me like i didnt just spend a fortune on this book.. The box it came in did not say "fragile" or "handle with care" and they didn't use bubble wrap or any other protective shipping supplies... Very upset with the lack of care by MCS on such a high grade comic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black_Adam Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I believe in journalism this is known as burying the lead... Every slab I have ever received from MCS has been packed in its own box and then that box is wedged securely between four foam blocks inside a larger box. Maybe they had someone new in shipping the day you ordered? Was the outer box damaged? I think it's fair if they cover return shipping costs and reholder in fees. Hope it finds its way back to you in the same condition as when you bought it. Gnasher and Keys_Collector 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying it was not packed this way or was it indeed packed this way and sustained damage in transit? Would appreciate pictures of the packaging.

shadroch Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Show us the return address on the box. That doesn't look like any MCS package I've ever gotten. Gnasher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
