  1. CGC has the perpetual ‘help wanted’ sign hanging. Heard stories from submitters at shows, they have seen someone roughly handling stacks of books for submission because there is only 1 or 2 people who have to work at breakneck speed to get them all done. I’m sure the private equity people have squeezed every dime from the process. If shyte gets lost, oh well, just keep the wheels moving
  2. Yeah, the 3 points I got for my KC 205 seemed a little lame. On the flip side the mislabeled ASM 249 CPV that showed up as ASM #149 CPV was a rock star for points
  3. Low grader, was hoping it would be an up-grade, but no such luck. Still like finding these though.
  4. I don’t know much about this run, except that #1 has a counterfeit that is very difficult to differentiate from the original. For this reason alone, I would never touch a #1 that was not CGC regardless of grade.
  5. Low grade pick-up. May have over paid a bit, but another title off the list
  6. $30 shipped US Returns ok, you pay return shipping unless I missed some thing. Must be returned 7 days of receipt in same condition it was recieved. No one on any bad lists Check or MO look To be 5.0 - 7.0 range
  7. Nice books, congrats! Scans are deceptive, but I wouldn’t hang my hat on that high a grade. Very nice though!
  8. Well I for one am going with ‘just a coincidence’ …… unless it’s not …,,,
  9. Picked up an ASM for the run from Derek. Book was tightly graded and shipped fast and safe. Buy here with confidence!
  10. For me, I dont slab mid grade nothing books. I use a pre screen for 9.8 on bronze and up non-keys. For books I buy, I rarely get CGC because I refuse to pay for someone else's grading mistake. But when I do I crack them all the time. It becomes a practical thing for me. It takes about 6 times as much space to box all those slabs ask @jimjum12 about all those slabs I had. Now it doesn't matter much for resale if my mid grade 35 cent variant is slabbed or not. It would on a hulk #181. I just save the slabs for real 'keys' and super low census books. I can hold more books in my limited space for keepers now.
  11. This is a real beater. I am calling this .5. But it is complete, staples firmly attached everywhere. Interior pages are clean. Staples look good. Some grease pencil on the back. Very nice starter book, I would not mind keeping it. $100
  12. Just one book in this thread. terms: payment by check or MO please. Shipping in $8 US. I will ship anywhere, but this gets expensive and I have no control over prices. Returns: ok within 7 days of arrival. You pay the return unless I missed something. Must be returned in same shape I sent it. I believe in second chances. If you are on any bad lists you must make things right with those you have wronged. Only then May you purchase here. Trades may be an option, hit me up if you have something interesting to offer. First by PM or in the thread. I will try my best to determine the winner, but in the thread wins the tie.
  13. Then there is This guy laundering his drug money Always thought there was more of this than anyone wants to admit
  14. After liquidating my collection a few years back, I have very carefully budgeted 5% of my pay (after taxes and 401k max). It’s not much and I took an idea from @jimjum12 who told me he has a keeper box. One in one out. I have my keeper pile, 1 in has to be one out. Keeps me in line…. Mostly
  15. This is for trade, but I will list a sell price. Payment by check or MO please. Shipping for trade is each pay our own end. For sale, shipping is included in the price. This is US, but if you are outside the US, please let me know by PM I am willing to work with you. Returns ; This is hard to do with trades. No returns but if I missed something, then that is on me, you will be refunded sale price plus shipping , by trade I will send your book back and you return mine in same shape recieved all shipping on me. Final note, we both ship books for trade at the same time. If you need references, I have done many many trades I can provide that for you. Book is VG or better with nice wrap $85 shipped US Take any book on this list - raw preferred. ASM 171 35 cent variant VG or so ASM #165 Whitman in 9.0 or better. ASM #292 'so much fun' 9.2 or better Any x-men 35 cent variant Will consider other 35 cent or certain 30 cent variants. Final note this automatically closes 10/8 at noon. (pictures to follow)
  16. They should keep those old labels so we can CPR them for the label chasers
