OMG they destroyed it!  They are probably hiring temps to deal with backlog.

Now you are the axman and the nice lady is CGC! yeahh

Should be reimbursed FULL VALUE of the book not just the damage done!

Full reimbursement would be nice (and most likely never happen). But how will they compensate me for the years I spent hunting down this comic, a grail for me? I spent a day and a half hitting F5 in @october's last auction just waiting for this gem to appear and managed to snag it only a half second before all the other interested buyers.

Issues in this grade come up for sale once or twice a year at most. And there have actually been only two dozen copies ever graded 7.5 or higher. 

To have sent this comic to the market leader in comic preservation and to have it returned like this...

"Trust your collectibles to CGC!"

Waiting on CCS and removal of small color touch at the lower staple.

Let us know how it turns out.  I love that cover.  I am sending Masters 25 in on my next sub.   Low grade but another in the run that has a great Raboy cover.

I've tried to look at other runs to go for, like ECs, or SA Silver Surfers, or other GA DCs, but nothing is grabbing me. Feels like I'm doing it out of habit, not love. I had also been collecting Sensations, and recently gotten the last ones I'd been after. But who knows?

Sorry to see the damage. That's awful. It was a really pretty copy. 

I am getting ready to submit my undercopy of that one. Should be a 6.5 white. PM me if you want a replacement.
