The VVSS Mylar

Post by TheGreatSatan »

Does it matter to you if the Original VVSS mylar that came with the book is still with it? Is there a price difference?

I would like the the original mylar with the star on the flap. How much is it worth to me? Maybe $2-$3.

Even though most are cracked and damaged to some extent, I still like getting them with books.

I didn't get this with my couple VVSS issues.

I'm not heartbroken though. Much.

Half of my vvss' have 'em. Half don't. Not that big of a deal for me. But i don't store them in them. I put a piece of paper, with the name of the vvss that it came with, in it and i've got them all together in an envelope.

I got a few in the mylar, but I tossed it. It's crappy plastic.

If I get one I replace it as well with a mylar and good backing board. I think I kept mine tho for some reason prob because of the logo but they are pretty much crappy sleeves.

I'd say "crappy plastic" is a most apporopeiate use of a double negative.

:D

Most have some degree of damage to them, but once in a while you come across one in decent shape.

I don't blame ya, but with a few I've bagged & boarded them and put them back in. I mainly do that with the ones I have in comic binders.
