The first (and last) time I purchased books from them about half were overgraded, so you're probably getting closer to a 4.0
If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.

Here I thought Mycomicshop was supposedly considering limiting the amount it would allow consigners (or is it consignee's?) to put on an item. :screwy:

It's definitely a typo, which is unfortunate because $191.20 is still "hall of shame" too high for a 6.0.

That price is too high for a CGC 9.2 of an actual gold... so whoever clicks the BIN on that one isn't sharp in more than one way. :lol:

Good catch! Too bad they all have a printer error on the cover that subtracts 10 from the issue number. :cry:

Are they asking $10 each or are they actually selling them for $10 each?
