So the order that I submitted to CBCS in July (received by them on July 19th), arrived this Thursday (December 27th). So the turnaround time was a little over five months. Hopefully that will improve significantly over the next few weeks or months.

So what’s in the box? Well the peanuts have been replaced by white newsprint. Under the paper was a block of 15 comics surrounded by two approximately 4-foot long strips of bubble wrap. There were no foam dividers between the slabs, I guess they have gone the wayside just like the old inner boxes.

This batch of 15 comics included Bronze, Copper, and a few Moderns. I had hoped for all 9.8's (don't we all), but expected the grades to range from 9.4 to 9.8, and I wasn't disappointed.

Here's a Modern that I picked up last year from my LCS. I had been watching the Jessica Jones series on Netfix and saw it on the wall.

I bought this one from a different LCS, where it was also hanging on the wall.

Most of the rest (except for the two Moderns) are books that I bought new back in the day.

If anyone has an extra slabbed ASM #361 (or others that I am missing), let me know if you'd be interested in a trade for a Secret Wars #8 or Titans #44.

I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for. drchaos private msg quote post Address this user
