2 daysDuece411 (234): I have never had a problem yet with them putting orders on my dash, or billing for that matter but once you get a book pressed threw them you have to understand it takes a little bit of time to have a quality press done to each and every book! Now just imagine 1000 people sending 5 books in each time... it can be lengthy! Thats why i just hire a guy to press them for me insted of waiting now... just saying i dont work there and I feel for these...

All I need is....... the Red Label. :D Lawyer problem solved

2 yearsJesse_O (12955): What does a checkmark (asterisk online) by the grade mean? In rare cases, a comic book will look much better than the given grade. In these rare cases, a Check Mark will be placed on the label by the numerical grade. The best way to understand why a specific comic book received a Check Mark designation is to refer to the graders' notes. Example: a comic is graded 8.0. However, the covers are such that it looks like a 8.5 or a 9.0. CBCS...

I saw some of these at IKEA on sale for cheap. I also heard someone got some frames there in the 3-5 range which certainly beats that $50 nonsense I have been seeing. then again SUUM CUIQUE ! https://forum.cbcscomics.com/cached/417917e6c8b0822076bd1c66ed8e72fe.jpg
