CBCS Free VSP Holiday Giveaway. Use Code: Holiday24. T&C Apply21375

I've spent years perfecting my brand of assholery. DrWatson private msg quote post Address this user
Since you can't grade screen, I'd press it all.

I couldn't stand the wondering if a press would have made a difference. It's not just a press, but a press and clean.

Please forgive me if this has been asked before, but where does one enter in the Holiday24 code? I added items to the cart and was trying to checkout but there is no place to put the in code....?

Thanks in advance....

I was trying not to submit anything this month, but this was too good to pass up. None of the books I am sending are "worth" grading, so nothing is getting pressed this trip (sorry Steve). I'm sending two double-signed Ultimate Spider-Man issues (Bendis and Immonen), a double-signed Lady Mechanika, and an Excalibur issue with what looks like an Alan Davis signature. I'm hoping that if it fails, the discount will still be good.

Should I send this in? I also have a blue one in a cgc slab that I'm considering.





The only other cgc qualified I have is a 9.8 that I don't want to risk.





Edit: I've got everything submitted. Sending 8 comics in which include 2 maxx ashcan's. I'm also sending 5 Last Ronin books in under the magazine tier. I figured I'd add a couple non-signed to the magazine tier since I was paying for shipping anyway. I'm glad there's plenty of time to get these to CBCS.

Me, having not submitted in years:

Yikes!!!

14 book and 2 magazines - gonna be pricey!!
..although after the promo this is almost half price!!!

8 will go to MCS and include Romita Sr, Miller, Neal Adams, Romita Jr, David Lloyd etc.

1 book had 4, 2 with 2 and all others with 1

Should probably have done Havok and Wolverine signed by both Simonson's

Oh well.....

Now to print invoices at the office tomorrow and then to pack and find a mail carrier...stupid strike messing with my quick low price shipping!!!

I hope this offer will be repeated at some point. I'm leaving out of town in an hour for 4 days so I'll miss out on it. I have 3 books I REALLY want done.

My Chihuahua is watching me in case I do something cool. ICConquest private msg quote post Address this user
So, how do I let CBCS know that this is an Error? This issue was printed on regular Comic cover stock and was not printed on Thick cover stock with the embossed Logo. The run was destroyed and reprinted on the correct cover stock with embossing. This is one of Dave’s complimentary copies that he signed from the destroyed run. Do they just know it is different or what do I need to do?

You can still submit until 12-15 using your phone and mail them out when you get back. I'm not sure what the problem is. We have until the 30th for them to be delivered to CBCS.

Not bad Ed. I have been sitting on some Venom # 1 Greg Horn Variants since 2019'. Got them signed at the Mega-Con for 5.00 each. Horn, Stegman & Cates on each. And a few other books.
21 signatures on 8 books would have cost 460.00. Promo cost $0.00.
I have more books with just 1 signature, but they can stay in cold storage.. lol...

@flanders and @Nearmint67 - Here’s scans of the drek I sent in today:














Except for the first book (won it in an auction), I personally had the others signed at conventions. I am curious to see what they do with the third book. It’s a Newsstand edition published by Titan, DC’s UK presence, that I bought off the rack in Ireland. Neither its title nor its publisher showed up when I listed it on the invoice. There is a US version of the book’s title (DC Comics Showcase), and the book/cover is a copy of Harley’s Little Black Book 1A.

16 books!!

Lucky I received some CBCS books back last week so I can re-use the box and packing material!!


First group all going to MCS for sale - have 2 of the David Lloyd V for Vendetta so will have MCS ship back which ever is the higher grade












These will all come home - some are only being sent in because they are dollar books but free signatures mean for sentimental reasons I can justify the other fees i.e. that Hawk and Dove was my first mail order comic subscription - will be shocked if it gets 7 as there are 4 or 5 small pin pricks perfectly in line and evenly spaced though the cover - I assume due to the mail order process??

@esaravo

I Like the Firestorm & Daredevil books. They all look to be super high grade. Very nice.

@KatKomics

Diggin' the Neal Adams & McFarlane books.
Neal seamed to be very conscientious about where he signed as not to be obtrusive.

those Neal Adams sigs were from way back when 2 books were free sigs and additional were $5 a pop...but you were free to line up and get another 2 for free......ahhhh the good old days!!

The McFarlane I picked up on line - it's one of his store exclusives with the little spider web stamp on the back!!

@GAC incredible that a show, like 70 years later, holds up today as much as it once did.

Not unlike the 3 stooges that's like 85 years later, and still laugh my ass off

@Nuffsaid111 so true! That main cast Gleason, Carney, Meadows and Trixie were stacked with talent...The Flintstones, All in the Family,the Simpsons, Family guy, and I'm sure many more, owe a debt to the Honeymooners.

Hey Norton, address the ball.
Helloooo ball.

Brilliant!!
