Weekly Cover Contest #386 - They've got it covered! esaravo Jump to first page51Jump to last page 2 monthsTheShocker (157): Congrats šŸ‘. Damn it was really cool to see alot of these awesome covers I would have never seen otherwise. (Modern collector)

Loose included items MrNotSoNice 11 7 monthsGAC (66799): I don't think Ed is asking about how the loose page should be identified. You are right...something must have first been attached to be identified as detached. I think what he's asking is....if the loose but accompanying page is the exact same size as the catalogue, then what is the logic for not encapsulating the page? (The way CBCS would if we were talking about a detached centerfold). It's a fair question that I'm interested in knowing as...

Collection Connection is back! CLLXCNNX 2 7 monthsMrNotSoNice (3430): Is this legal? Is it for 70-year old comics that are in the public domain?

Marvelmania MrNotSoNice 17 7 monthsMrNotSoNice (3430): Turns out there is another signed copy (Kirby, I presume). Oh well, at least my 9.4 is the highest-graded signed copy (so far.) https://e3effa51eee72fd900e3-2fb779bd12ec72d4612275342f2c9187.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com/356f883e2923f0e856233c407ff7e561.png
Magazine Slab Storage MrNotSoNice 14 8 monthsHulkSmash (9239): EGerber may your best bet. You may not need 5 but you will more than likely pay the same price for 1 if you find it elsewhere like any other EG product.
Population Report for Magazine slabs? Rafel 5 8 monthsRafel (3626): I would think so. I went by title and year, but it still would be nice if it said, comic book or magazine. Just to be user friendly.

Dielā€™s Annual SDCC thread (wall pics!) dielinfinite 28 8 monthsdielinfinite (26228): Last day of the convention! Didnā€™t do too much today but still fun! I started by picking up a commission I requested on Friday. No one famous but for $21, I am happy with it! https://i.imgur.com/QAenoia.jpg I then stopped by a CBCS to submit my books. I had been told that they would have a signing including Frank Miller today but they ended up doing it on Saturday so there were a few books I didnā€™t include. After that, I wanted to...

Redo signature verification? donho 15 8 monthsEbayMafia (36534): I'm not sure, I only ever sent one book back, it was the first year they opened. But it seems that without some kind of formal process, misunderstandings like this are bound to happen. The guy at the convention may be doing his best to provide good customer service, but if that's not his role, he misses a step in the process because he doesn't realize it's not as cut and dried as he thinks it would be.
Magazine slab introductory pricing cesidio 2 9 monthsMRmintastic (225): I am not certain, though it seems the current price of $25 for modern mags should be here for awhile. CGC also has the same price for their modern magazine grading, so CBCS would be shooting themselves in the foot if they raised the price in this current market.
Superman vrs Spider-Man treasury edition signed Zevgoli 11 9 monthsZevgoli (360): Thanks to a very helpful Cynthia V at customer service Iā€™m submitting the book to CBCS for a raw grade and signature verification of Stan Lee and Neal Adams. Iā€™m also getting the book pressed thanks to Steveā€™s acknowledgment that it can be pressed. I will post the result when I get the book back. Cheers, Zevgoli

Have magazines in your vault for 6 years now myxzeus70 16 1 yearEbayMafia (36534): I thought it was mentioned previously that signature verification could be done for raw grade magazines. I may be remembering it wrong, I do that. Too bad, seems it would be a quick and easy solution option for pent up demand.

Foreign Comics Year End Clearance Sale! HotKeyComics 7 1 yearJames42 (3285): @HotKeyComics I recently discovered the Turkish comic industry and have been shopping for Turkish versions of various modern comics. I do wish there were English translations of the works of Turkey's creators. Many of their books look amazing, I just have limited ability to puzzle out the words.

Weā€™ll be driving because I donā€™t fly anymore and she hates flying.

All offers are welcome, but I donā€™t have anything new to add. We really need,...

Question about grading missing value stamp Tattedcoyboy 19 2 yearscesidio (1879): Years ago I bought a hulk 181 missing stamp. Gorgeous book otherwise. At the time there was no cgc or cbcs.

Any Upstate NY / Great Northeasters out there remember FantaCon? dfoster43 1 2 yearsdfoster43 (1607): It was 1980 and my first 'big' comic convention was in my back yard. What a day. I'm sure I don't have to go into detail, it was probably exactly like everyone's first convention. But what memories this brings back of those days. I can almost smell the fall Albany air. Albany was my stomping ground and FantaCo was my LCS as John S Iavarone was incredibly rude to anyone under 21 that dared enter his place I never went there much....

When I emailed customer service about it, the instructions were to basically put it in as a new grading submission but note on the invoice that it is for a reholder. I would write in nice big, Sharpie with highlighter. The invoice should be adjusted when CBCS receives it. If not, then just email customer service about it and it will be adjusted. That's what I did. Just to show that...

Preserving Treasury Editions Noblebeast315 30 4 yearsNoblebeast315 (2194): @sborock thatā€™s an incredibly valid point to make. I donā€™t see myself having a collection of Treasury Editions, but honestly I donā€™t know a whole lot about them to begin with. I see Steveā€™s stake in this as checking the pulse of this kind of demand, before taking a trip down that road. I can say this though, I am still interested in having my Treasury edition book graded raw. Probably will not make it to your grading desk post though!

Diamond damages... An ongoing epidemic! JLS_Comics 12 6 yearsJLS_Comics (5463): In the video in the OP, he talks about a possible solution. Instead of 2 medium boxes crammed in to a large diamond box at 50-60 lbs (enough that the USPS person doesn't want to carry it) do just one with padding between the medium and large. Shipping costs will go up a little, but the other costs will go down and so will the frequency damages (which means lost sales, storage costs, etc). Most damages on the books come at the corners where...
I miss Wizard magazine 00slim 30 6 yearsDrogio (7629): Speaking of price guides...I loved getting comic values monthly (CVM) every month...I had a subscription for a while... It had some quirks, like not listing golden age books and would not provide any explanation as to why some series either started off at a strange number (I.e., Captain America 100) or there were missing issues (Incredible Hulk jump from issue 6 to 102). But that made it a mystery early in my collecting hobby and made me...

CBCS Raw Grade: odd sized books Saint_Doyle 14 6 yearsHomer (1010): The taller size created a perfect storm for eliminating high grade copies, if one stored them with Warren magazines the top edge was crunched. I'm in utter amazement of the quality of that top corner posted by the OP. I have looked at a lot of Warrior mags, and have never seen the top corner of a #1 anywhere near that sharp.

Dark Nights: Metal - likes! and dislikes? ZosoRocks 7 6 yearsDrogio (7629): The batman who laughs is the best thing coming out of this arc. It's the only reason I'm paying attention and the only disappointment is that he's had a limited part so far...but it's just leaving me wanting to see and know more about him! Definitely hit on something bid here if they stay the course with this character. Speaking of which I'm going to start a thread to see what people consider his first appearance (cameo or otherwise). ...

Comics Heating Up neyko 27 7 yearsTedsaid (7340): I'm not sure I believe that.
Total Comic Mayhem neyko 28 7 yearsDocBrown (16887): Just for information's sake, the Canadian Newsstand price variants were published from Oct 1982 to Aug 1986 for Marvels, and Oct 1982 to Sep 1988 for DCs. Archies had the same program, but it lasted longer, into the early 90's. The disparity in the US and Canadian dollars became too great by early 1982, so the publishers had to come up with a way to designate that...hence the "Can" prices that began with the price logo change (the...

Would you put a collectors box in a slab? det_tobor 18 7 yearsshrewbeer (13240): Sure. Slabs are a big part of history at this point. If there were a (hypothetical) auction of say, the very first slab produced by CGC, or the first prototype, I'm sure there would be some collector interest

The 15 Worst Things That Ever Happened To Superman Dshel61 12 7 yearsTowmater (10537): I guess the author felt that putting the indisputable truth that Superman having to be a part of the train wreck Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice was the worst thing to happen to the character had to be avoided. After all, it would have just shortened the list to 1 item. The other examples on the list pale in comparison and seem trivial. https://68.media.tumblr.com/b839cc8e186abe39e66d96a75a1943d8/tumblr_o9kolfML8j1r5rk9to1_400.gif

Raw vs. Graded therealtimmyp 7 7 yearsesaravo (90882): Don't forget that the slab certifies not only the book's condition as in its grade, but also if the book has been conserved or restored, and if a signature (or several) are legit. Once you purchase it, you can remove it from the slab if you want, or leave it be. But you will have the piece of mind knowing that the book hasn't been restored and/or that the signature(s) is/are real.

Comic Auction Site Advice tonnage71 6 7 yearsFoghorn_Sam (3769): Hey no problem. I really like how ComicConnect does their end of auction, makes it more like a real live auction, giving everyone a fair chance before the auction closes, unlike a set cutoff time where snipping is rampant. I wish the other auction sites would do this. I've noticed Ebay has begun running some live auctions similar to this also.

Official Joe Madureira Appreciation Thread Soma 8 8 yearsDespain (1618): @Soma Thanks for sharing that, Soma. Very interesting. Now that you mentioned it, I can see the horse skull details as part of the rune. Pretty cool that Joe Mad has inspired you artistically. Are you planning your own comic book? It might be interesting if you used your own characters as your next body art. You'd be your own walking advertisement. I bet it has helped Joe when people ask him about his tats.
