This is just one comic of many in this huge auction. Each book has been checked by our chief grader to qualify for the NM- to NM condition. If a book falls below this condition it will be noted.
This auction has been built around the USPS FLAT RATE ENVELOPE and as such, we do not expect potential bidders to win only 1 single comic. The envelope can fit 5-6 comics easily with a high level of protection (cardboard). At it's maximum the envelope can hold 8 regular comics, although the protection level begins to get dangerous, as the shape of the envelope begins to bulge and could be more susceptible to "dings"
So as one can see, these auctions are perfect for those of you who need specific issues and beginning at just 99 cents each, it's a win-win situation for the collector.
Just a reminder - WE COMBINE, COMBINE COMBINE!!!!!!!
Lets say you win hundreds of books, we will find the most cost effective method to ship the books to you, in a safe and secure fashion.
PAYMENT
PAYPAL PREFERRED.
Please do not automatically pay via PAYPAL - wait for your official invoice which will have the CORRECT shipping total.
EXTRA SHIPPING INFORMATION (USA)
As noted in the above paragraphs, we will be using the USPS FLAT RATE ENVELOPE for smaller orders (1-6 comics) max 1-8 regular size comics.
We also use the SMALL FLAT RATE BOX, or for huge orders we use PARCEL POST. All orders receive a tracking number.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING
Okay, this section seems to be fraught with danger and mis-information. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING RULES:
If you have a track record for receiving packages then we can send you a FLAT RATE INTERNATIONAL ENVELOPE if you win #1-6 comics.
Please understand this section 1-6 comics only!
Why a maximum of six comics? It's due to the need to protect the books with extra cardboard. If you choose this option you will pay a flat fee of $10.50 to CANADA and $12.50 to the rest of the world.
Why are we being so strict about this section? Well during our last auction cycle, one customer purchased a number of books and then refused to pay the extra shipping charges!
To finish: If you understand that the FLAT RATE INTERNATIONAL ENVELOPE can not be tracked via a tracking number and if the envelope gets lost it's not our fault - we can not take responsibility for the "loss" of these envelopes and that's why we limit this method of shipping to 1-6 comics.
LARGER INTERNATIONAL ORDERS
Okay, to be as CLEAR AS POSSIBLE - all orders over 6 comics will be sent VIA EXPRESS MAIL INTERNATIONAL (EMI) or if the value of the items being shipped is over $300 it will be sent via GLOBAL EXPRESS GUARANTEED. Both of these methods of shipping are a little expensive, but due to the ability to track packages to clarify the whereabouts of packages, its the ONLY METHOD WE WILL USE.
Here are a few examples of comics/per weight:
7 comics = 2 pounds, 20 comics = 5 pounds, 30 comics = 7 pounds, 40 comics = 9 pounds.
Examples of cost: EXPRESS MAIL
Australia (40 comics) = $70.00
Canada (40 comics) = $53.00
United Kingdom (GB) (40 comics) = $63.00
South American destinations (40 comics) = $65.00
South Africa (40 comics) = $250.00 (Note all shipments to African nations are GLOBAL EXPRESS GUARANTEED - no exceptions.
Please remember that if your package of comics exceeds $300 in value, then the shipping method changes from Express Mail International to GLOBAL EXPRESS GUARANTEED and the costs go way up.
LANGUAGE PROBLEMS
If you can't understand what is written on this page, please do not bid until you can. (if someone needs to help you that's fine) We have had numerous problems in the past with bidders from overseas who have placed bids and then complained about shipping prices because they did not read all the instructions!
