  1. Thank you! I rub it the night prior and place in fridge uncovered. Take out a couple hours early and then cook it at 175 Fahrenheit until internal temp is 120. I know 175 is low but it’s the only way I get it to cook evenly throughout
  2. This is really weird! I had a seller once that refused to transfer a book a couple years ago. There were no allegations or theft or anything like that, they just wanted to be difficult. They had it in one of their competitive sets so I think they wanted to keep it for the points… I suspect they figured I’d buy it but not register it so they could get the cash and “keep” the book. Usually when you try to add it to a set, they get a notification and can then release it. If they don’t allow the transfer then usually it goes through in a couple days. I think in my case they denied the transfer… I ended up explaining all this to the Registry Admins and including a pic of me with the book, and it was immediately transferred. Very strange they won’t do the same for you!
  3. Finished the entire series Wed & Thurs. I’ve only ever played Fallout 4 but probably have a few thousand hours into it, with about a dozen playthroughs… have spent a ton of time just building settlements (of course I have a mod for unlimited settlement supplies). I really liked this series… for me, most enjoyable was looking at all the detail in the sets to look like the game environment. This series flew by and once finished felt very much like a mere intro… there is a lot more they can now do!! Really excited for Season 2!!
  4. My problem is not with any grade, it’s CGC’s public relations. I wish they would just grade books and let nature take its course from there. When they publicize something like this then in my mind, everything becomes suspect… I mean, when it comes right down to it shouldn't this book have simply went from QC to shipping and no one inside CGC would have even known to make a big deal out of it? Just be the best at grading and shut up, then no one will have a reason to wonder what motivations are for this grade, this grade now, etc. Also makes me sick whenever I see CGC ranting and raving about some record sale (especially when it’s at Heritage)… just so shady. It’s almost as if they want to suck every penny possible out of people that enjoy this hobby
  5. @Yorick I tried this and got this far… when I save I get an error though
  6. Yes, once you save and go back to the set desc or gallery it will display in the order you assigned. If you skipped a number because you left a space for a book to be added in the future, no one will be able to tell other than you. Note - I do think there MIGHT be a way to create a slot for a “wanted” book rather than an “owned” book but I have not played around with that feature. Yes and yes. (If you don’t input numbers then it puts the next added book on top of the list as a default.)
  7. No Sir, you would still be able to add any book later, anywhere you want to… you’d just have to renumber the existing books. OR, you could plan out the sequence ahead of time (1 through whatever) and omit the numbers where you don’t have that book yet, and then when you add that book later give it the planned number and it will slide right in there. I can also re-order any of my existing sets by just changing the Slot Order number anytime I change my mind. I hope this clears it up! Sorry if I was confusing the first time around.
  8. @Yorick @ADAMANTIUM Just to follow up, I experimented a bit. I can edit the custom set and sort it by the various fields (slot desc, cert #, etc). It will sort and save but when you go back to Set Desc it reverts back to either the order they were entered (if all 0’s) or the Slot Order (if you ordered them with numbers). In other words the only way to order them is either by the order you enter them, or a manual number.
  9. It kept adding each book to the top of the list as I added them. I had to go through and manually number each one based on how I wanted it… it is very painful! Now, when I add a book I have to renumber the books AFTER where I want it to be and then insert it in there by assigning it an order number. It’s time consuming! I don’t know if there is a way to sort them any other way cause I wanted mine in a very specific order.
  10. @ADAMANTIUM Competitive: https://comics.www.collectors-society.com/registry/Comics/PeopleSetDetail.aspx?PeopleSetID=119612 Custom: https://comics.www.collectors-society.com/wcm/ComicCustomSetView.aspx?s=32372
  11. I had both set descriptions the same for a long time but I just recently made a completely different set description for the custom set… this allowed me to use different pics in the SET desc area. If you change the pics or descriptions of a BOOK it will change that book in BOTH sets though.
  12. Hello! I have my competitive Death of Superman set (99 books) with my best copies (point wise) but also made a Custom DoS Set with all of those +131 others because I wanted to show both Universal and Signature Series books side by side, plus a bunch of other Doomsday related books like TPB’s and 30th Anniversary reprints, and also books that had something to do with the storyline but would never be in the competitive set. I hope this is a good example for you of where books could be in both types of sets.
