Rich's APRIL pre-sale s/s thread; Sarah Michelle Gellar, Prinze, Iron Fist, X-Men Prime, JSC exclusives, cast of Lost in Space, etc.

Lots of stuff to get to this month, and I'll be adding to it consistently over the next several weeks.

As with all my previous monthly pre-sale threads, all books are pre-screened and culled from the finest 9.8 candidates.

I'll be posting ops for books that are physically in hand and pre-screened for 9.8 standards, as well as posting for books that may not have shipped yet, but because due to limitations on availability, I always need to get my orders in EARLY so as to ensure that I have enough for everyone, as well as some extra either for inventory or to make sure that everyone gets exactly what they ordered.  

To be even more transparent, what I need to do is almost (but not quite) double my orders based on the amount of copies board members are looking for.

So for example, if there are five spots available for say, IRON FIST #1, and all five fill up, I'm going to be submitting roughly 8 copies.  This gives me some wiggle room, just in case there happens to be a 9.6 in the batch.  If I don't get my orders in on time, or as early as possible, I'm very likely to miss out on what I can get you for exclusives and variant covers. 

This was recently the case for books like Gamora #2 Mattina and Elektra #2 Granov.

Similar with Seven to Eternity #1.  I waited until the book was on the racks before I offered it in my threads.  As such, it sold out, and I was only able to fill the initial 8 spots, even though there was a big wait list.  So if there's ever the question as to why I may be offering a book months in advance, it's for very good reason.

Best example I can set is (getting back to Seven to Eternity)----I learned from that lesson, and made sure that I pre-ordered and pre-screened DOZENS of the balance of those issues (#2, 3, & 4) plus the variant covers.  I offered the Rick Remender s/s op back in January, I think, when I knew it was a lock down.

I've been sitting on everyone's books since then, all are ready to roll into the signing----and it's a good thing, too.  Since the release of those books, I have yet to find more tight copies (or 1st printings)----and Remender has had to cancel two or three convention appearances.  The only way these are getting done is next week at my LCS signing.

But I had the foresight to order beyond what customers wanted in the pre-sales thread, and now everyone is going to get their uber high grade s/s cps w/Remender (finally!)

My goal is to deliver 9.8 graded signature series books, prices listed inclusive of all costs associated with the op right down to shipping.

I've been asked "Can you guarantee a 9.8?"

I can guarantee that I won't be shipping you out a 9.6 , if that helps answer that question.  I'm not a professional grader, but I've been doing this for 15 years and I'm pretty good at what I do.  My reputation speaks for itself.

That being said, anything can happen----a book could get damaged, a box lost, it's not an exact science but I am more than happy to grant full refunds if you're not satisfied or you can return the book.   If anything goes wrong on my end, I'll call you directly to discuss which way you want to roll----credit, a discount, a different book or a full refund.

You are either 100% satisfied or we work together until you are!

With that being said, lets roll forward.

Pictured below IN HAND for the Sarah Michelle Gellar signing, BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER photo cover variants.

These are all inventory back stock, uber high grade for 9.8 potential

There is no commitment on your part if these do not hit 9.8 for any reason and a full refund will be granted.

HOWEVER----I'm pretty good at this and knowing what to look for, so, there's that .(thumbsu

(a steal at typical signature rates)

**(Stock in hand, purchased last year and all are the ducks nuts uber high grade---I'd be shocked if one copy falls under 9.8....I grabbed these last year in anticipation of a reunion signing and I've got one scheduled for next month!)

Also from last month, but readjusting my price

Kanan, the Last Padawan #1 (Plunkett variant) CGC 9.8 s/s Greg Weisman & Killian Plunkett, adding Freddie Prinze Jr. - $350

***TWO (2) cps. available of this book, already graded 9.8 as pictured with all signatures.***

**Bear in mind----neither Weisman or Plunkett really do shows. Weisman was added with the book came out, and Plunkett just a few months later at SW Celebration.

Plunkett, to the best of my knowledge, doesn't do conventions---he's one of the top animators and storyboard artists at Lucasfilm.
