10 monthsJesse_O (5140): What is "Processing"? On your account dashboard, any invoice that has been received will read "processing" until the order has been shipped. To find out what stage your comics are at, click on the invoice number. There, if your comics read "processing", it means that your comics have not entered the grading phase yet. Once they HAVE entered "grading", you can follow the comics through the different...

1 day3JJr (7): #1 impediment to 300s in 9.8: that right edge. The majority are cut so the edge is actually deckled/fluted, almost like the teeth on the edge of a saw blade. It's a production issue, but IMO a point deductible flaw. It's the modern age equivalent of Silver age books with right edge chips, likewise a production issue, but defectively damaging to the book as if it were a flaw of wear.

And hey, were I a fast furious fickle fingered flipper I'd be right there in the mix. It's a legitimate way to bang a buck and I'm all for free enterprise, capitalism, apple pie and all that jazz. It's similar to the earlier action comics/AMS15 multiple reprint issues which I've collected a whole batch of over the years. And yup I'll eventually sell most...
