Saved about $200 not shipping out myself.

2 yearsJesse_O (9388): 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 mail ordered a copy to see for myself and it came in overall rather nice but with the roller ripples throughout the cover which seems so common on Dc books of late..

I don't know why I hung on to this set for so long, I'm guessing because no one was really interested in them. Maybe no one still is, lol! The back cover on No.1 was a bit dirty and the front cover has a small crease here and there ... it is probably the worst of the lot. The fornt and back pages have a small amount of "faint" foxing, otherwise, yeah...

Thanks! the signature and her time she's charging for, not the photo" If this were the case she would sign a notecard and hand it to you, you are buying an PICTURE as well..hence why six different shots are offered to choose from. Get it? Yes her time and the signature are part of the transaction but so is the PICTURE.
