1. Are you missing something?

NOTE that if you think you're missing something that should've been mailed or delivered, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!! I shipped around 20 packages last month, both stuff that had been pending and holiday gifts. So far as I know, everything that's still waiting is waiting on special book orders/backorders and I've communicated with the person who ordered them. If your order is missing, we do NOT know about it! For instance, we got a couple of mystery DUNGEONS & DRAGONS comics; we don't know who they're for and we haven't had much luck figuring it out.

If you think you're missing something, email milliony...@yahoo.com.

2. HOURS FOR THIS WEEK!!!

I (Kelly AKA kjc) will be in tomorrow, Monday (1/4) from 11am until at least 6pm.

Tuesday (1/5), Will Carper will be covering from 9am-3pm.

Wednesday (1/6), NEW COMIC BOOK DAY, I'll be in the shop from about noon to 6pm.

Thursday (1/7), Will Carper is on from 9am-3pm.

Friday (1/8) and Saturday (1/9), we're not sure who will be on. Could be Tony, could be Kelly, could be one of each.

Sunday (1/10) is me again from about noon to 6pm.

If you have questions or want to put in an order for curbside pick-up, shipping, or delivery with a $15 minimum contact us via email, milliony...@yahoo.com, or call 617-492-6763.
