No it's fine, I vaguely remember a crease there that I didmt think would press out, if the buyer down the road thinks it best to try more power to them. I'm all in at $160 on this slab so I'm a winner either way, since I requested pink for brains er I mean krang and got it I'll be excited when the Nintendo power comes back that I sent in first, it too was pressed and a pressed 8.5 before that so hoping or believing for a slight bump to 9.0 This one was fun with memories of Saturday morning so I'm happy Edited May 17, 2021 by ADAMANTIUM onlyweaknesskryptonite 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did think to call is why I gave the laugh reaction, cause it left my mind as ugghhhhh I dont want to do that But I wish I hadn't deleted my before picture s I'll look one more place, but still, pretty sure I was thinking there was something that wouldn't press. But yes I bought it to read then it went up in price then Eastman signing was announced, kind of fell into place too perfectly to be ungrateful, I was blessed with it. Glad you bought it off the stands, I was a bit younger, but still most in high school wanted the "real deal " ? I remember getting chewed out by friends for subscribing to mail subscription of ASM classics Haha, I'd have bought the "adventures" comics of TMNT at least too. The cartoon was just too much fun as a kid Edited May 17, 2021 by ADAMANTIUM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADAMANTIUM Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Ya I dont know what to make of that.... Hmmmmmm I hate to have to wait on it again it does fit the frame of a 9.2 But couldof happened in shipping as I shipped it in a window bag that was cut out at leonardo's swords... So it could have been too close to the lip etc, so idk, it still would press out, unless it happened after that You can see why I thought 9.4 with that one blown corner but the rest looked good Turtle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still waiting for my TMNT2 to get back from this signing and I had submitted a book for the Crain signing. After those, I'll be taking a break from submitting, just getting tired of books coming back in a worse state then when sent in, especially after they were all pressed by CGC.

Did they ever offer to fix it if they could with a press? I'm debating even trying I want to but don't want to more at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From another submission, I have an Ultimate Fallout 4 9.6, but was damaged. If I was to resend would also probably comeback as an 8.5 or if lucky a 9, so just leaving it as is. onlyweaknesskryptonite and ADAMANTIUM 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alikat229 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Been reading this thread in the background after wondering what was taking so long with my submission. It sat in 'received' since 1/13. Emailed last week and was told it was almost done encapsulating and then it updated to shipped last Friday. Now it arrived today and I can breathe easier now that its back in my hands.
