You go to the booth and let them know you need a witness for a signing. They’ll send someone with you to witness the signing and then walk the book back to the booth. If it’s going to be a busy signing with a long wait, stop by the booth and let them know. They’ll likely give you someone’s phone number and ask...

Saved about $200 not shipping out myself. I have a friend who spends $ on a one day ticket at any con nearby just so he can drop off in person and he saves a lot and it’s better for the blood pressure Lol! Not sure any of...

Jesse_O

2 yearsJesse_O (9119): 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...

This is a lot of extra handling that leaves a comic book susceptible to damage. If a comic book does get delivered damaged, I doubt that the GSP would take responsibility. A diligent seller who packages their items securely could get blamed. A web search will give you many stories of GSP packages that...

I see the color breaking spine ticks, I'm hoping the paper at the top on the back is stuck to the tape and not the book, it doesn't appear that there's any tearing.
