These arrived last Friday (sent them in early January with Fast Press). Thought it was a pretty quick turnaround, especially with everything going on right now.      |

Found LCS Cape & Cowl in Oakland, CA. So I'm supporting them even if they're not local to me ^_~ They are trying to stay in biz by offering great prices and listing their extensive inventory with ComicHub. I saw this shop exclusive limited run DeadPool #1, reg & virgin. Added the other 2 in because they are great fav covers. -J ^_~ HavaTaco  |

| @lawguy1977 thanks, there's rumors about vin diesel playing black bolt. Right now is a good time to pick up the inhumans. I made an offer I was sure the buyer was going to turn down. Haggled, but got it for what I offered, very happy | ||

 I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie.

| @Bronte that's why you use CBCS, so you can select individual grade screens instead of a single grade screen for your entire order at CGC. | ||

Ordered 2 of these figures MOC over the last 2 days. Hoping one of the 2099 2nd print #1s come back 9.8. |

| @flanders I recently had a "complimentary"? membership to CGC so I decided to send a bunch of stuff to try out their services to see how they compare to CBCS. So far, I dont like the nickel and diming on their handling fee. 5$ for every part of order. The inability to press screen on a single book or 2 as you mentioned. Up in the air about how they mail books as they are completed, vs waiting for whole shipment to ship like CBCS. While it's nice to get stuff as it is completed, you pay for each fedex shipment out the nose. Turn around times are fast. I barely forget they are away. My biggest question is how they are with pressing. I submitted various books. Although I had mostly positive success with CBCS, the turn around times and the one book I was pre screened for a grade increase came back same grade even though CBCS originally graded it, made me want to see what others could offer in terms of service. Either way, choice is a good thing. |

| @Bronte I’ve been advised not to trust CGC with Pressing Magazine size books. I’ve never had issues with their comic book pressing service, aside from pricing. It’ll cost you a pretty penny for high-end books. | ||

| @00slim I hope you are right in that they do not have issues with pressing normal books. The books were valued under 1k a piece, but there were multiple copies, so yes it got expensive quick. However, CGC does have a bit better of a resale value. Most of my purchases were made when stuff was relatively cheap so I used that to justify the plunge. |

| @00slim Ordered 2 of these figures MOC over the last 2 days. Hoping one of the 2099 2nd print #1s come back 9.8. They grade those comics too? I always liked Frank's "just po'ed look" on the figure so kept it sealed - never thunk about getting the comic graded but i see on MCS there is a market for it - I will send this in with a LionsGate ASM 129 - thanks Slim -HavaTaco  |

| @Cool_Fool Yep, you have to remove it from the packaging of course, but some of the reprints are definitely worth grading. | ||
