How about adding "RC logo" cards for the september promo for baseball to coincide with september callups?

I am also still getting cards that I have not flagged "Not For Sale" showing up under that option.

If you are still looking for ideas for specials I would recommend hockey cards, any and all
Hey Tim, do you have that many errors that need to be fixed?

I agree with Jetson, I use 75% off as my starting point for inserts. I figure this allows someone to make an offer if they'd like, but also leaves a fair buying price if someone goes that route. Good news from me though, I hit $3500 in sales today!

Default Great service...

I wasn't really surprised but my cards were due to post on Sept. 12th and I got Steve's email today, the 4th, saying they were done. How many other companies get our jobs and requests done early.

Kudos to COMC,
Vinny

I was card surfing this morning on comc and I noticed that all of the 2004 Bowman Ervin Santana's have the wrong fake signature on them. The folks at Bowman had inadvertently use Johan Santana's auto instead of Ervin's! Apparently no one caught it b/c it's not an ERR card or even an UER.

This is a great observation! I didn't know about this until now but I figured it out after doing a little research. You'll notice the following things:

-All of Ervin Santana's facsimile cards have that signature, even after 2004.
-This "Johan Sanatana" signature doesn't match his authentic signatures since his cards have been out.
-His facsimile doesn't match the facsimile of NYM's Johan (which in turn matches Johan's authentic). Given this, it becomes clear that they haven't been using Johan's signature for this the whole time. Sooo...
-As Wikipedia will tell you, Ervin Santana's birth name was, yes, Johan Santana. This is what he went by until 2003, and this is how he signed the contract that his facsimile signature had been pulled from. He changed his name shortly after signing this contract to avoid confusion with the star pitcher on the verge of his own national exposure.

A+ for your research on Wikpedia! This is definitely very interesting to say the least.

Has anyone else sent in cards this month and tried to use the $10 blowout credit? I did and was charged the full amount. I didn't know if I will be getting it back when the cards go live or if they missed it on my order sheet.

I haven't submitted cards through the website process in a long time, since some of the changes were made. Do they put a hold on your funds when you fill out the submission form or when they receive the cards? If its when you fill out the online form, then you will probably get the $10 back when they receive the cards. If they've already received the cards, then it is probably an oversight. I think the instructions said to include your Blowout user name with your shipment, requesting the $10 discount... so if you did that and they have the cards and its still wrong, I'd either call them on Tuesday or e-mail the staff account.

they hold the funds when they get the cards.

Has anyone use the bulk pricing tool? I am trying to figure it out? I have my prices all set on the site now but I am wondering how I can have a sale and mark everything down 20% acroos the board?
