  1. I had planned on cracking it out and turning it yellow. With all the new case drama, I'm glad I just had Staples sign the case.
  2. Oooo, that is a nice find. It would be a shame putting that in the new CGC slab, the rest of the book would look normal covered in Newton rings

  4. Yep, same story with me. It's been 2 years since this op started. 1 year since a refunds were announced. I reached out to the artist and his rep earlier this week to find out what was really going on. Found out only 2 sketches were completed , and our requests were never even submitted. Basically we just signed up to give a 2+ year no interest loan. I know Mr Mylar had family issues during this time. It's just hard being understanding and patient when things drag out this long. Not to mention the false promises and being screwed over by other facilitators that have disappeared.

  6. Keith is a super easy to deal with Board member. Sold him a couple of items and he paid right away. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with him again. Awesome member!
  7. I always received an email from cgc with tracking info until sometime last year. I checked my email junk folder and never received any updates, so I assumed CGC stopped doing this service. Then I updated my email preferences on my CGC account. All I did was check to receive "Special CGC News Announcements". I have received shipping updates again since then.
  8. Sorry to hear bud. On a positive note your MOS books were signed this past weekend's Magic City Comic Con and driven over to CGC yesterday Thanks, Daniel I had no worries you'd get them done
  9. Sorry man, this sucks. I think CGC should put in a rule that there needs to be a HARD DEADLINE for sketch opps to be done. It can be anything, but it needs to be stated up front so people know. And if the deadline can't be met, there should be a HARD DEADLINE for how soon people get refunded. And when money can't be refunded by that time for any reason, the CGC account of the facilitator should be SUSPENDED until all obligations are met, meaning no submissions, no witnessing. They collected the money and are acting as an agent, and would generally be considered liable from a legal perspective, and should be treated as such. I get that many times the facilitators are not the reason for delays, but NO ONE IS FORCING anyone to facilitate a sketch opp. I'm not saying they should be punished, but they should be forced to CAREFULLY EVALUATE if they ARE SURE they can facilitate the opp in a timely manner (part of the facilitation is managing the talent), and that it will be worth all the time and effort, and IF ITS NOT WORTH IT, then the facilitator should not undertake the opp. I agree 100% Out of the 4 missing facilitators that owe me money, this is probably the only one who will make things right.
  10. It's been 6 months since I was told I was supposed to receive my refund "soon" I swear I have the worst luck with ops
  11. There's a newsstand version? How can you tell the difference?
  12. Thanks for the update. It's unfortunate that we won't receive our sketches, but at least this long overdue opp will finally come to an end soon
  13. Probably damage from before slabbing. via Imgflipw Meme Maker Doesn't look like taco juice, could be CAK juice.
  14. Yeah a Voldemort 9.6 . I can't take a good picture of the top staple but it has a bit of noticeable rust next to the paper , and what looks like transfer to the paper. I'm sure the inside has issues too. The Foxing/ staining is light but still fugly for a 9.6.
  15. Are you sure it's rust? Rust on a 1990 staple doesn't sound right, at least not this early (maybe in another 15 or so years).
  16. what reason would there be to get that kind of a book slabbed. send it back and be done with it. I'm keeping it . It's not the sellers fault Voldomert sucks.
  17. After 38 days, I finally received my slab today. CAK really does know how to stuff a big box, and used lots of protection. Now for some eBay feedback..... Wish I could leave feedback for Voldemort. For a 9.6 it sure has a lot of issues on the back cover, that I couldn't see in the blurry eBay pic. A little rust on the staples, dirt and some foxing also. I'm really tempted to send it to CGC to see how bad it really is. O well, cheap lesson learned I guess.
  18. Looks like CAK got his first neg...for late shipping. that's why i linked it. Could be multiple stuff to the same seller, or two people at once Looks like CAK got his first neg...for late shipping. that's why i linked it. Could be multiple stuff to the same seller, or two people at once That negative feedback is from another buyer.
  19. Did you get your books? The tracking number shows it won't arrive until at least Saturday. Media mail cross country usually takes over a week for me. It's been 30 days. Did you agree to a delay in shipping? Did you agree to Media Mail? You nominated him over 72 hours ago. I would say you're within your rights to have him added to the Probation List and if/when you receive the book, he can ask you to have him removed from the list. Thoughts? When I purchased the slab the listing showed that it was Free Economy Shipping. Did he have an option for Priority shipping as he does in some of his other items? IDK, I didn't pay attention. It probably wouldn't have made a difference on the long delay. The only thing that got him motivated was the threat of being on the Probation list. I'm ok with either waiting till my package arrives, or adding him now. Rules are rules tho.
