 Have I told you about the time I dropped off 3,000 comics at SDCC?

 How do I know this? Because I've done it myself.

The Avenges Annuals. I had 6, 7, 8, and 9 just sitting raw in a box. The 6 did not pass a 9.4 grade screen. I knew the 9 was fairly sharp. Pleasantly surprised with the 7 and 8.    |

| Such vibrant purple on books always captures my eye. Go ahead and add some yellow to do me in. | ||

| Oh, we had a heart breaker. I didn't realize it until I was scanning it. The Avengers 131 went from a 9.6 graded by the cgc to a 9.4 CBCS. It's the Rocky Mountain copy and it arrived from Blazing Bob Storms with a busted corner slab. I threw it in on the 20% Banana promo and it took one for the team. Was it always a 9.4 in 9.6's clothing or did the book get damaged along the way? The world may never know. Before:  After:  |

| As the saying goes, "The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away." He tooketh away on the 131, but he gaveth on the 182. Bought as a 9.6 on FeeBay at a deal, the numpty who sold it shipped it in a bubble mailer. That's all. It was not pretty. Plastic shrapnel everywhere. Before:  After CBCS worked their voodoo that they do do... BAM! CBCS 9.8. After:  |

Avengers box fodder that turned out to be hidden gems. I almost didn't send the 181 in since I already had the Mass copy in 9.8.         |

  These arrived yesterday( I was out with the family so I had to wait til I got home to open the box). Both of these were CGC slabs one retained its grade while the daredevil book took an ugly hit. I also think the 158 is crooked in the case but it's whatever. Overall I'm satisfied because the case is better and I believe the grades are honest. On to the next ones.  |
