| @Bronte - It shouldn’t be considered color touch, but would be considered writing on the cover. Color touch tries to match the color of the cover in an effort to hide or mask a defect. So black ink over a yellow portion of the cover would not be color touch in my opinion. You can find graded examples where someone has colored in faces, or added designs to the letters of the title, and they are not considered color touch. | ||

| I know they had issues with Microsoft on their website last week, however, I have not been receiving my email notifications either of receipt, change in status, pending shipping or having been shipped. I see them charge the credit card so I know they have been receiving the new orders. I also get notifications of incoming FedEx through the FedEx app. Has anyone else been experiencing this? No issues with the forum or customer service emails. |

| I have one order of two books that are theoretically on their way to me. I got the received email on 06/05, but no others. Nothing in the FedEx app yet, either, though I don't know if things show up there when a label is created or when it's scanned at pickup. | ||

| Now I have a tracking number in the FedEx app (shows label created), still no emails about the order, though I did get a promotional email about the money-back guarantee being extended to the end of June. | ||

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

| Why is this bid so high? This makes no sense to me, especially when you zoom in on the book. Multiple spine ticks and a small color breaking crease on the bottom right corner of the front cover. It's one ugly 9.4. https://www.mycomicshop.com/search?ItemID=58827172 I've seen some weird bids on MCS the last couple weeks. I suspect someone with multiple accounts is bumping up prices, with no intention of paying. |

| @flanders - Makes no sense at all. MCS has numerous 9.6 copies for sale at a lower price than the current bid for that awful-looking 9.4 (even the spine looks off based on the back cover pic). | ||

DrWatson private msg quote post Address this user | |
| @esaravo @flanders I agree. I find it perplexing as well. I have lost books to higher bidders than myself only to go on to purchase as nice or nicer books listed for sale on MCS or other sales sites for lower prices. | ||

| Grader's notes from the 9.0 I just got back on TMNT #7. Is the spine stress enough to take it to 9.0? Or did it get dinged from the manufacturing error? spine stress breaks color pages 7 - 12 mis-cut with corner fold-over & extra paper |

| Just a question about VSP or more a comment... It would be nice to have some sort of notification if VSP passes or fails even when I've chosen encapsulate even if fails. I have a number in that are through the process and have moved to pressing (got the email today!) and while most I got myself so I know they are real there are 1 or 2 that I bought from Heritage and another few that are Dynamic Forces - so while I and the providers believe them to be real it would be nice for a notification/confirmation.... |

| I sold a $2 book today to a buyer with a business address. So I looked up the book. Apparently it contains the first ad for Spawn. There is a seller asking $175 for the book. To me it is still a $2 book   |

| I need your opinion on about something. I picked up a comic that has 2 Signatures on the cover and has three (3) covers attached to the book. All three covers are the tradedress. I am thinking about sending it in for grading/slab just to preserve the oddity of the three covers. Would you?  |

| Nothing comic related. But a PSA fir anyone who owns their own business. Get all your disability things checked and verified. In Florida it's a huge scam that is legally covered. They go around suing companies fir not being ADA compliant. Essentially this is legal and they sue and settle to make your life miserable. They go after any business open to public. So be mindful that you are not safe if you think only restaurants are targeted. Tbey even went after my insurance company because their website doesn't speak to disabled folks. | ||

| @zdoes10 Some folks pay a premium for books with multiple covers. Usually the books are more valuable if they are popular titles. |

| When was the 30 day guarantee? I have some books that went in on May 17, 2023 and was wondering if they fell into the 30 day promo they ran. Thanks in advance. |
