| The latest: My order, according to FedEx, landed back in Mount Juliet, TN. This is approximately 12 miles from where I live. It was supposed to be delivered by end of day yesterday. Daniel with CBCS even called me to give me the news. Once my package did NOT arrive, I checked the tracking again. At this point, it read that the package was in Phoenix, AZ. If the tracking information is correct, this order is in a perpetual cycle of traveling from east to west. At this point, I believe my order is lost. If it is not lost, the chances of it arriving unharmed are slim to none. This is a nightmare. On the plus side, it seems as if CBCS is trying to correct the original mistake. | ||

 I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for.

| Just to put things in perspective, approximately what value do these books have (just a rough guess of what you could reasonably expect to sell them for)? | ||

I will let you be the judge. |

| @jaked6698 So far it appears that CBCS made mistake and is trying to fix the mistake. Your books are common enough that it should be easy to put a value on them (or approximate the cost to obtain substitutes). In the worst case that your books were lost CBCS could still give you fair value or better to make it right. It is a bit early to panic. |

| This reminds me of the episode of The Wire when the longshoreman steal the cop surveillance van and ship it to every port in the US while slapping on the local union sticker to the van. Your books must have touched just about every major FedEx hub. | ||

Did the package have these kind of travel stickers plastered all over it? |

 I live in RI and Rhode Islanders eat chili with beans.
