*Please note: collecting and selling comicshas been my hobby for over 30 years. Due to thehours of my job I can usually only mail packages out on Saturdays. I send out First Class orPriority Mail which takes 2-3 days to arrive in the USAand Air Mail International which takes 5 -10 days or more depending on where youlive in the world. I do not "sell" postage or packaging and charge less than the actual cost of mailing. I package items securely and wrap well. Most pages come in an Archival Sleeve with Acid Free Backing Board at no extra charge. If you are dissatisfied with an item. Let me know and I will do my best to make it right.

Many Thanks to all of my1,000's of past customers around the World.

EnjoyYour Hobby Everyone and Have Fun Collecting!
