I would love to send in more books but it is really the cost that prohibits me. I don't sub to sell. More to have my collection in order and easier to liquidate when my daughter inherits it and does sell it. But now that I am nearly 60, retired and have had health issues, I would love to pare down my collection so subbing to sell has been a consideration but again cost and now the TATs are prohibitive.

I should have my old name back soon enough. Maybe my sales thread will pick up once my old name resurfaces. Economy Joe is a jerk.

Popular Post jokiing Posted June 24, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2022 I'm sitting in front of a stack of 25 comic books from 1972-74. These are from my collection that's been stuck back east, well, since the 1970's. Slowly having them shipped when my friend is in the mood. This batch is mostly duplicates but all key issues. Average grade is around 8.0 so Econ FT will scrape the bone clean in most cases. What does it say about a company when I'm hesitant to use their service. Seems to be no "love" for this hobby outside of profiting off of it. Most of their profit and focus is on the current (not using the term Modern because that goes back to the 90's) crop of books, many flooding in as spec and quick turn-around money makers. Paying $11 more for "Economy" should buy us more than economy service, especially since there is a lot of comic book history in these "economy" books.

gadzukes Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Anyone know how to get the shipping details once your order is shipped back from CGC. I can't find anything to click on. This is again the problem when our submissions drop off the submission page after 8 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told you could search for status, but once shipped, youd need to call for the tracking.
