Second time this summer that I handed off some books in-person, paid for express pass, and got the books back in less than a month! This time was at Heroes Con in Charlotte. The CBCS staff manning the table that weekend were great. |

nice. submitted a few at heroes con myself. didnt pay for express so wont see for a year. skottie young is one of my favorite artists. One of these days would consider getting a cool cover he did signed and witnessed to get graded |

Quote:Originally Posted by multi007 the reason I dont do express is. with the cost...I might as well submit more for the same ammount. I dont mind the wait. if they werent submitted theyd be sitting in a drawer or cabinet (I keep anything worth money not in a bin/box) |

Quote:Originally Posted by multi007 This exactly. As long as you don't press the cheap books, it's not that bad. It's not even a whole year. Just be sure to inspect your lower tier books thoroughly before you send them so you don't get unpleasant surprises (learned my lesson early on), and use pre-screen when it would be a big waste if you don't get that 9.8. |

Ima gonna steal this and look for some occasion to use it! | IronMan private msg quote post Address this user | |
I hate waiting and can afford to go faster. So I get it. Just because it isn't worth a lot of money doesn't mean I want to wait a year. | ||

That Skottie cover reminds me of the SNES Empire Strikes Back level on Hoth. I still have nightmares. I did beat those SNES side scrolling monstrosities; ptsd I suppose. Oh yeah; sweet books!! |

Quote:Originally Posted by IronMan I get what you're saying. I have books that I shell out for, even though I tend to send in the lower tier books on the slow boat to China. Books I'm fond of and want for my PC get expressed regardless of FMV. |

Quote:Originally Posted by SidTheSquid yea - lots can happen in that year. Interest can drop cutting the value of the book in half. If its a witness or signature verification, the artist could have passed away and the book doubles in price and you cant capitalize on the jump right away... I could die. Then my wife is getting books a year later wondering "what the heck do i do with this - off to Goodwill!" its a risk for sure. lol |
