Plus it just sits and decomposes in the bag as the ink fumes eats the paper.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Yea. I learned that lesson a few years ago when I found my Ultimate Fallout #4 in the box and it was still in its polybag. Because of that polybag it's never graded above a 9.4 (and I've tried pressing, etc.. multiple times)<br/><br/>So now all books come out of polybags as soon as I get them so they don't get any of those lines, etc...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Agree on the bags not being good for the comics. Just to put out there what I do incase it helps others. I always take them out of the bag (carefully) and put in a storage bag and board. If there's something in the bad (a card or poster or something) I put that in the storage bag on the other side of the board (not touching the comic) and then I fold the bag in half and put it in there too (again on the other side of the board) this is my way of satisfying my completionist tendency, but keeping the comic in good shape. If I'm going to send it off for grading, I just hold on the extra stuff in a bag/board of it's own. <br/><br/>maybe I'm alone in this, but I sure wish they would stop with the bags, and 10 different covers for each book.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[We've received some variant requests for polybag issues that have been unbagged.  I'd like to share our policy on it.  We do not provide pricing for incomplete issues.  For example, if a book is supposed to have tattooz and doesn't, we will not be making a new listing for the incomplete version.  For polybag comics we will provide pricing on<br/><br/>Polybag issues - raw will have values, graded have zero values.  Third-party graders like CBCS and CGC don't grade issues with a polybag on them.<br/>Separate listing for Opened issues - Raw and Graded will have values as long as they are complete.<br/><br/>This isn't a change in our current policy, just letting everyone know.<br/>Thanks,<br/>Ron<br/><i>edited by ronbatman on 7/18/2022</i>]]></description>
