I noticed a few on CC looked like that... Noticed that as well. I think that is some kind of home-made light box to take pictures of the slabs with a smartphone (to cut down the glare). -bc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally it takes no more than two months, but I sold some books there last year (November) and still haven't received payment. I contacted them a month ago and they said the check must have been lost in the mail and they would send another ASAP. Asked them last week to confirm whether a replacement check had been sent and was told they were busy but would look into it and get back to me. Still haven't heard anything... I had to harass them for my November auction payment and they sent a replacement cheque which for some reason took 2 weeks to get to me. It was small so I didn't really care but another comic friend was owed $15K so I acted on his behalf to get his replaced as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I emailed to check if the slab was cracked, nope it was fine, must have been the scanner Black_Adam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After berating them by phone (when my e-mails weren't being replied to) I finally received confirmation last week a replacement cheque was being sent. I still haven't received it (but knowing yours took two weeks gives me hope). They also let me know they would be adding my payment from the January auction, thankfully reducing the odds of another cheque being "lost" in the mail.

I’ll see how long my February focused checks takes. I may have to switch auction houses. So far I’ve never waited more than five weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's up here in Canada where mail is delivered by dogsled across the frozen tundra. The current situation is highly irregular and, I hope, short lived.

Popular Post Buzzetta Posted March 15, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) After spending 9 years trying to get a copy of this book... I finally just said whatever and pulled the trigger knowing I overpaid. going by eBay prices I actually underpaid... by a considerable amount. Now if I ever encounter a kid that might be special I will put this comic, a knife, and other assorted objects on a table and ask him to take the item that belongs to him.

Popular Post miraclemet Posted March 15, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 15, 2019 Super happy with this win. Have had Captain Flight 11 on my want list for years, rarely came up for sale (like maybe 1 a year that I came across). There was a CGC 2.0 with detached cover on ebay a few weeks back that I bid on initially but then decided to let go in hopes of getting this better copy. Luckily it all worked out. I paid less than twice what the 2.0 went for on eBay so Im very happy. Old label to boot! sagii, shortboxed, BAT MAN and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He alsways had a thing for strong colors on Planets over actual grades. I had to put on my sunglasses to look at that 40. So deep those reds!
