Hownow53 Posted June 15, 2021 Author Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) I got the grade back from this Hulk 181. The slab is in transit, and I'm still waiting for final images, (both taking what seems like forever), but I liked a suggestion by. @AnhDepTraiif anyone wants a shot at seeing how accurate they can be. I'll post the result as soon as I have it in my hands. FYI, I used the Spot on Grading app to help me estimate my grade and it was only .5 off.

Unfortunately I have been waiting a week already for my book to get here, and have learned that not only is registered mail extremely slow, but I am unable to get any estimated delivery time online or from USPS customer service. I don't know what type of delivery time is typical but I am frustrated, also because they are also late in sending me images I paid for too.

That back looks nice, I think it's fairly graded. I assume a press gave it a bump! Not bad for tat either !!

I agree. 4.5 tops. Good fortune. I think there may be something to certain keys getting a grade bump. jcjames 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could sell over $1 trillion worth of merchandise on eBay in any calendar year and not receive a 1099 from the IRS. Reason being, the IRS doesn’t issue 1099s 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
