SHIPPING/POST-SALE:  All of our comics come bagged with backing boards to insure archival protection.  An invoice will be issued shortly after purchase.  Domestic shipping is by USPS.  International shipping is by USPS and charges are determined based on destination and weight; email us for a quote.  All shipments are carefully packaged.  Packages generally ship on the first Saturday following receipt of payment.  We happily combine shipping charges for multiple purchases. 

GRADING: We grade VERY STRICTLY using CGC/Overstreet comic book grading standards.  These strict standards are well-developed and widely accepted.  We have been major collectors of comic books for over forty years and if there's one turn off from this great hobby it's getting an overgraded comic in the mail.  We hate when it happens to us and will do our very best to make sure we don't do it to you.  We have submitted hundreds of comics to CGC for grading and know how they apply their grades.  Our VF/NM will not look like a Fine (and it could very well qualify as a NM- or NM).  We are confident that you will not be disappointed with our grading.
