So my mom was cleaning out her garage yesterday...

Thing is I paid the $3 extra for "imaging" from CGC but they've never gotten back to me on that. I assumed they have better scanners (or at least ones upon which the whole slab will fit) and will add their image if I ever find out where it is or how to get it. It took them a while to ship it back to me, but it was the next day that I put it up on eBay. Been busy moving into a new apartment the past week and a half. God I hate moving. Lots of heavy boxes and a top floor apartment don't mix well with my fat and lazy physique.

I figured adding in my ugly mug would make it less likely to sell, but tomorrow after work, I'll try and grab a shot from my other computer's web cam for you all. I'll try and resist the urge to stand naked with only the slab covering me.

I'll tell you one of the offers was for $20 and I turned it down right away. The other one I certainly pondered and waited out the 48 hours... but I'd kinda decided to wait until after Comic-Con unless the offer really knocked my socks off.

Just make sure that the person doesn't spend his money at ComicCon

Ask and ye shall receive. But as they say, be careful what you wish for.

Here's three webcam snaps of me and the book:

(And yes, I've been mainly handling the plastic bag so I don't get the slab dirty.)

CGC just sent me the "imaging" I paid for. Arrived in my inbox less than half an hour ago. You can see the whole slab and they really made the colors pop: http://i32.tinypic.com/2cdfnn8.jpg

Updated the auction to add this pic too.

I was just looking at the auction. It's a shame you don't have more transactions under your belt. Having only 7 might keep some people from forking over the big $$$.

Better late than never.

Paying money for these scans, you'd think they would at least have it straight - it's ever-so-slightly cocked off to one side.

You should try and sell some cheap stuff in one day auctions to big up your feedback 10 or 20. It'd be worth it in the long run I reckon.

How are the offers going, I see you've had a few. Or were they a bit of a *SQUEE* take?

Lovely pics by the way.
