  1. Incredible Hulk 181 CGC 9.2 White Pages - Sold!
    Due to the age of the case, graded in 2001, it has a few scratches and scuffs..

    Graders Notes: (based on the defects it might be "improvable" if that's your thing, but it looks pretty awesome at is it.)

    Not sure we need yet another thread about this collection.

    I haven't posted in a while and not on the boards searching much lately.  Sorry it this was duplicated, just found it neat and thought I'd share.

    Divorced him because he collected comics or divorced him because his obsession created a rift between him and his family and took up a bulk of their home space?

    Exactly.  Was going for the click-bait!

  4. The price increase is what it is but having a website that is not stable or functioning properly for a prolonged period of time during normal hours is terrible.  Coupled by a completely tone deaf response from an administrator who lacks basic customer service skills is just the icing on the cake.    I’ve been a customer for a while but completely put off by my own recent experience trying to submit (unhandled errors thrown on the site) and the blase attitude of CGC staff on the boards.

    Look forward to the CGC white knights responses.

    What are people's thoughts on two books per mylite/fullback?

    Given that I store my books facing alternate directions (back to back, front to front), I switched to thick current sized bags and put two books per bag.  Basically one bag, two boards, two books.  I did this because I thought I could cut down on costs.  As I weigh switching my entire collection to mylites/fullbacks, I'm again wondering if two books per mylite is okay.  Given that fullbacks are the same on either side (and there isn't the issue of whether books should be stored against the shiny vs flat side of normal boards), it seems I should be able to cut the number of mylites/fullbacks needed in half.  I have nearly 4000 books which is why I'm even considering this.  My thinking is Standard sized Mylite2's/FB's.

    Curious to hear what the boards experience on this are.

    Don't do it, you're bound to damage books.  I use mylite 2's and fullbacks and it is snug enough with 1 book.  FTR half backs are flimsy as hell and will not use them again.

    Here's a classic tale of buyers remorse. Bought a Aliens 1 9.6 off me, was delivered Friday, get a message Saturday night saying he wants a refund. Acts like they don't know what an older style slab is, then suddenly is a grading expert. Pretty sure was bought for a CPR, got the book in hand and realized there was no way to upgrade the book.

    No further contact since then, and they obviously haven't brought the issue here.

    It's fairly common place to take a 9.6 slab and replace it with a 9.2 comic?  GTFOH.  Ebay will probably make you take it back but this buyer is a clown.  Blocked!
    Send him a link to the blocked buyers list and his addition, would love to hear a defense from him.
