PLEASE HELP US PAY AMBULANCE AND HOSPITAL BILLS
CLEARANCE SALE
LET’S NEGOTIATE!
We’re selling items to raise money to pay our emergency room medical
bills due to our baby’s two ambulance rides and Emergency Room (E.R.)
visits. We must sell all items possible. Please help
us with these medical expenses by purchasing our items. Thank
you in advance for your business and generosity.
If it says Make an Offer, please do! If something
seems way out of the market price, send a message and we might be able
to negotiate.

Thanks
for browsing! If you have any questions, please ask ahead of your
purchasing an(y) item(s). We hope we can do business with you.
We are proud to have earned 100% feedback for more than 10 years
across all platforms – ebay,
HipComic, Shortboxed, ComicsPriceGuide and MySlabs, as well as direct sales.
Our priority is a successful sale where you buy and receive an item (or more
than one) and leave us positive feedback, and where we do the same for you.

We are proud to ship in as eco-friendly manner as we can. This
includes using re-used materials and limiting plastic as much as we can - we
only buy plastic tape and comic polybags – everything else is reused. When we
use padding in your packaging, unless there is bubble wrap or other plastic
packing items that we have on hand to reuse, we use honeycomb paper. This is
excellent, recyclable, reusable or burnable (a little bit makes for a good
campfire starter).
Condition: Items
being sold are in the condition shown in the photographs - what you see is what
you get. Graphic novels and other items may have stickers, stamps or other markings
on the outside or inside covers (ex. “From the collection of,” “Discontinued
from X Library”, Dewey Decimal stickers, etc.). Please look carefully at the
photos provided and ask for more if you’re concerned with the specific
condition of a trade paperback, raw comic, hardcover, poster, etc.
Graded comics are in ebay’s ‘Brand
New’ condition – when these arrive, we inspect them, photograph them and put
them away until they’re sold. These’re kept in the plastic CGC sleeve and will
ship in these. We do not have UltraPro or other additional brands or types of
sleeves for these.
Comics grading is not supposed to
be subjective. The standards CGC, CBSC, PGX and others use are according to
their published criteria (each their own, but pretty common among them),
and we try to identify any defects on raw copies through the photographs and/or
in the description. Disclaimer: We’re not perfect in doing so, nor
are we certified graders and any notation of a grade or condition on a raw
comic or other item, with the exception of actual third-party graded items, is
only our best estimation. No refunds will be granted for not receiving, for
example, a 9.8 NM+/M/GEM raw comic – we do not guarantee any raw comic is any
grade. All items’ photographs are retained to identify any defects present when
the item was shipped. Some defects may not be shown. These include spine tics,
indentations, blunted corners, small creases or folds (crease for us = bent
back 100%, fold = bent but doesn't break color and is possibly fixable through
pressing), scratches. grime, foxing, yellow, off-white or other-color pages,
loose or even tarnished/rusty staples, markings and more. Items will have all
pages included and, except where notated, all will be stapled as originally
stapled. We do not restore books, so you will find no restoration on our part
(restoration may have been done by a previous owner). But please know –
we’re collectors, too, so we’re not trying to pull a fast one over you.
Payment: Please
pay within 48 hours days of an auction or offer ending. Beyond that,
please let us know when to expect payment or if another arrangement needs to be
made, such as waiting on a paycheck or for other auctions to end. We’ll file
claims and/or cancel sales on items not paid after 72 hours unless you
communicate with us.
Shipping:
Graded
Comics: Graded comics ship via USPS Priority Mail, UPS or FedEx (our
choice) with signature delivery confirmation –the only way we can verify if the
item arrived at your address. We’re not liable for stolen items once delivered
- mail theft happens to us, too. Graded comics may gain Newton rings in transit
- we will not grant refunds for these. CGC says this is somewhat expected and
it does not diminish the grade.
Graphic
novels: All items ship securely - sealed shut from water and mailed
in a rigid envelope or Gemini-type mailer. We pack items securely to hedge
against the shippers or others throwing them around or putting heavy stuff on
top.
Raw
comics: Chances are, unless you’re buying a raw comic that’s marked
“reader copy,” you care about things like spine tics, reader’s markers, scratches,
dent, discoloration, blunt corners, etc. We do, too. We will package your raw
comic(s) between cardboard and, where necessary or helpful, bubble
wrap/honeycomb rap. We’ll try to make these watertight, too, and we won’t use
excessive tape nor any tape that can’t be cut through by a very shallow utility
knife cut.
Problems: If
there’s any problem, please contact us, and please do so before
leaving negative feedback. We wish to make sales satisfactory to buyers.
We will
work with you if there’s a tracking problem with the shipper and ask that you
do what’s necessary on your end. Your local USPS will help track items by the
GPS with the truck and tracking bar code scanner, something we can’t request on
my end, as far as we’ve seen. We cannot issue refunds for lost items unless
they are returned to us. If we need to pay to re-accept the item, we will
deduct the original shipping price and any eBay fees from the refund. If you
still wish to have the item, please arrange/pay for the new shipping by sending
us a label by eBay messages (.jpg/.jpeg only – Print Screen and crop a PDF), by
link or by PayPal. Do let me know and provide photographic evidence if your
item is considerably damaged. We’re not liable for damage caused by the
shippers but if an item was insured, we can file a claim.
All sales
are final and we do not accept returns. Thank you for considering us.
