    I'm now wondering, given that CGC is in Florida, if anyone's checked the building's integrity recently.

    Should say I also got 5 FT Moderns back this week that were submitted to them after pressing, presser sent to them May 2nd, delivered to me June 4th.

    Still in SFG this morning, 6/7. The Fast Track estimate on the site, right now, is 31 days. I don't know what it was a month ago.

    Oh right...it's an "OR", not an "AND" of the two categories. Thanks.

    I know what a Competed but not Sold item would be -- I think? -- an unsold listing. What would a Sold but not Completed item be?

    A (female) cousin of mine once entered a short-story-writing contest in college where the prize was that the story would be published in an unnamed national magazine. Turns out she won and then discovered the magazine was Playboy, which would not have been her choice of venues. But the point is, when I went to get that issue to see what the story was, I was literally "buying Playboy for the award-winning short fiction".

    Well then, the faster they grade it, the less time they have the book in their possession, so the insurance should be less, so it should cost us less, right? RIGHT?

    If "your guy" is taking books from people and throwing them into the press without opening them and examining them, you should probably get another guy. (I bet he's not, though.)

    Got 4 back today, they all have it a little, but this (PPSSM 90) is the worst -- the black on black is definitely showing it badly.

    I got a Steranko signed Cap 110 in what I hope turn out to be an 8.0 or so. He LOOOOVES to talk to the fans, so it was a 2-hour line with about as many people as you see there (a 2-ply line). I only happened to see about this show the night before and am really glad I did.
