Complete Submission Instructions:
Use a DWC submission form which can be found at www.desertwindcomics.com/index_files/SubForm.htm. Payment must be made by credit card, Paypal or check (make check payable to Desert Wind Comics). Note that all books will be sent to CGC and graded immediately after the event is over so additional signatures by creators not at the event can NOT be added. Send all submissions to: Desert Wind Comics, 2421 Tech Center Court, Suite 100, Las Vegas, Nevada 89128.
These prices include one signature charity donation, the CGC grading and encapsulation, the holographic sticker that is specific to the event, witnessing fee, prepping the book(s) and insurance once the books arrive in the DWC office. The price does NOT include any return shipping, handling, or insurance back to the customer. The return shipping to a US address is $15.00 for the first book and $2.00 for each additional book in the same tier. It includes up to $3000.00 insurance per package. Any additional insurance can be added at the rate of $1.00 per $1000.00 of insurance. Canadian shipping is $25.00 for the first book and $3.00 for each additional book in the same tier. Please inquire for shipping and insurance charges outside of the United States and Canada.
Ink Color, Signature Placement and Special Requests:
Books will be signed in either black or silver ink. Additional color requests for this event are not being taken due to the restrictions of this signing. Special signature placement will cost $5.00 per request. If you are requesting a specific placement of the signature, please send either a Xerox copy of the cover and where you want it signed or mark on the outer bag or CGC outer casing (if sending a previously graded book) using a felt tip marker. You MUST allow at least a 2 inch high by 4 inch long box. And the signature must by at least ½ inch from any edge of the book. Please note that special placement can not be guaranteed and placement fee will be refunded.
Adding an Additional Signature:
If you want to add an additional signature, please use the added signature fee to the book you are adding the signature onto. (i.e. You are having Stan sign a modern tier book and adding Bob Layton. The cost would be $100.00 “Stan” + $30.00 “Bob” = $130.00)
What Do I Need to Do to Get The Books Signed?
