csaag Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 just 2 in there? I guess that left room for lotsa padding - which I imagine saved them. Good for you! Link to post Share on other sites

Krismusic Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 with that much damage to a box, I would look carefully at the books in the slab as well to make sure you didn't get SCS (shaken comic syndrome) or that the books didn't shift around in the slab and cause damage that wasn't there. 1950's war comics 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I would get crushed from the weight of another box on top of it maybe even forced into truck etc.. and it got squished down. Link to post Share on other sites
Trifisherjoe Posted December 20, 2019 Author Share Posted December 20, 2019 (edited) Not so lucky on recent delivery...box was intact, but a surprise inside. Sent an email, no visable damage to comic. Does UPS run over all their packages with a forklift?! Jeez! It is...or was 9.8 Edited December 20, 2019 by Trifisherjoe couldn't see grade from pics marvelmaniac 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Trifisherjoe Posted December 21, 2019 Author Share Posted December 21, 2019 At 4pm Kateeja at CGC left email and came through like a superstar, with clear directions how to send back: mechanical error, transit damage... with shipping label! That's why I appreciate and use CGC. Thank you! Highly recommended. Link to post Share on other sites
