CCL Messageboard

Hello everyone! This wacky upside down year is nearing an end and here in the Hall we are gearing up for the big Holiday season (Halloween-Thanksgiving-Christmas) and then heading to what I hope will be a nicer, gentler 2021.

I am getting nearer to my goal of listing 26 long boxes for the year as I just got one up last week and should have another one live by the end of this week. The just listed box is more of what you love - that's right a ton of 80's and 90's gap fillers! That seems to be what is selling the most right now so I'm going to keep adding it. This current box is more of the same only it contains some really neat key issues and some large chunks of certain titles. Details will be posted when it goes to the Market.

I hope that you all are coping well with everything that has been happening in our country and indeed the entire world. These are the times that try men's souls as someone wiser than I once said. I know it can be tough to handle it all but keep your head up and I'm sure that things will get better for everyone. Hopefully sooner than later!

In the meantime let's all have fun and read comics! Or binge watch The Boys! Or try to find an open movie theater to see The New Mutants! Or (gasp!) do something not comic book related.

Take care and stay safe!

Howie


Long Boxes Listed = 22

Hall of Heroes Store Policies

Free S&H for orders of $25 and up.
- This option is for Media Mail to the US only. I have separate pricing for Priority Mail and International orders

ALL Comics come bagged and boarded - Gold and Silver books will always come in Mylar bags no matter what cost or condition. Some other (but not all) high dollar comics will be in Mylar as well. If you want all of your books in Mylar please send me a PM.

Every* order ships in a cardboard box
*International orders ship in a Flat Rate Priority Envelope with cardboard packing - if you want 6 comics or fewer it might be cheaper to use First Class International, please send me a PM.

ALL orders come with free tracking or customs form number information - Also, I only mark an order as "Shipped" after I have dropped it off with the Post Office. Notification will be sent as soon as possible thereafter, usually within 24 hours.

Grading - I do my best to grade judiciously and impartially. If you have a disagreement with a grade I have assigned to a book then please contact me with your concern. I am not perfect. I make mistakes but I would never intentionally misrepresent a book's condition. I am always trying to improve and graciously accept constructive criticism.

Fast Shipping Promise - All orders will ship no later than the next business day or you receive a free comic of my choice. Friday orders will ship no later than Monday. Sometimes I am able to ship on Saturday but not always. If your order is in before 3PM it will usually ship same day.

International Shipping Program (ISP) - If you want to buy something from a CCL Store that doesn't offer International Shipping I will buy it and then send it to you for a nominal fee - 10% or $5 whichever is less. You DO NOT need to make a purchase from my Store in order to use the Service. Please send me a Personal Message with details.

Combine With eBay - If you want to buy something from here and my eBay store then I will combine shipping. Not only that, but my Free Shipping option of $25 or up will count toward the combined total between the stores. So if you buy $15 here and $10 there I will ship together for free! Please make sure you send me a PM (Personal Message) here to alert me that you have ordered from both platforms. Please do not contact me on eBay for this offer as I'm sure they would probably frown upon it.

If you are a Newsstand collector feel free to PM me and I will let you know if my copy for sale is newsstand or Direct.

I return Feedback when I receive it. My reasoning behind this is until I hear back from you I don't know if you have received your package and if you were happy with it or not. If you leave me a Rating and I don't reciprocate please remind me. I stay on top of it as much as I can so it's usually not a problem. If there is a problem that causes you to consider leaving non Hero feedback PLEASE contact me and allow me the chance to make things right.

I will provide scans upon request. If you want one be sure to send me your e-mail address and I will get it right out.

It's up!

More Early Modern Age filler stock with some gems tucked in. Actually, a lot of them have already been cherry-picked but still a lot of good stuff left.

Right now I am in a bit of a holding pattern. I am very low on bags and boards, was supposed to get some two weeks ago but they have been back ordered so I may not get more until next week or the week after. So what I am doing now is listing another box of Archie Comics (and Red Circle!) since those are already B&B'ed and are ready to go. This is the second of five boxes total that will be up eventually and they are Archie's Mad House, Archie's Pal Jughead Comics, Archie's Pals and Gals, Archie's R/C Racers, Archie's Riverdale High, Archie's Super Teens, Archie's TV Laugh-Out, Betty, Betty and Me, Betty and Veronica, Betty's Diary, Black Hood and Blue Ribbon Comics.

These range from early Silver Age all the way up until a few years ago. Conditions are all over the place as well with some being beat up readers copies and others in the VF range with a lot in between as well.

After this, if my supplies don't show up, I will list some Silver and Gold Age books. I put all of these in Mylar so I don't need the other stuff to get that accomplished. I will probably do that anyway because it has been a while since the last time I added a bunch of those at once so it's about time.

I hope that you are all doing well! If you are on the West Coast with the fires or the South with Hurricane Sally or in the Midwest with the blizzard or anywhere else really I wish everyone the best of health and please Stay Safe!

This is The Hall signing out!

Yee-Hah!!!

Got 250+ Archie Comics up last week. The second of five boxes of those to list and this one went from Archie's Madhouse to Betty and Veronica. I will try to get another box of those listed before the end of the year, maybe two. We'll see how it goes.


Long Boxes Listed = 24
Boxes Needed To Reach Goal = 2

So close to reaching my goal! Maybe I set my standard too low. Either way, I will be one box closer very soon. Still waiting on bags and boards to be delivered so I have gone ahead with a box of Gold and Silver books. Pretty even mix of Marvel, DC and Indy. I will absolutely post some pics of the goodies as soon as they go live!

I will be spending a lot of time the next couple of months adding toys to my eBay store Hall Liquidations in anticipation of the upcoming Christmas Season but I will not be ignoring Hall of Heroes!

In fact, I have several long boxes lined up ready to list (all great stuff) and the only question is which one should go first?

Only way to find out is to tune in next week - same Hall Time same Hall Channel!
