From todocoleccion, paid on the 18th, sent on the 23rd, received on the 25th via Correos: Bought on the 13th, received on the 25th via GSP + Sending. American eBay seller (fastest ever?):
Under-graded copy, auctioned as F/VF when it's actually VF/NM, at least. $99.50 with postage and taxes. Still a good deal for a such great condition.

Bought on the 19th, shipped on the 22nd, received on the 28th via Royal Mail Tracked & Signed + Correos. Comicana (9th order):
That's my finger on the lower left corner, not a tear.
These two are more than a little worse for the wear, but I didn't want to spend much on them. I bought them mostly as an example of how well Talaoc finished Buscema's pencils.
Nice early Frenz Spidey, specially when inked by Mel Candido.
I've completed again "For All Seasons". Still not completely sold on the script, but Sale will never draw so beautifully.

This one took 60 days! Domestic shipping is usually about three days, but this seller from todocoleccion is the worst I've seen: I already had a copy, but I had ordered the one above first and when the seller finally resurfaced I couldn't resist getting it for 15€ (postage included).

Bought on the 20th, shipped on the 23rd, received on the 5th via Royal Mail Tracked & Signed + Correos. Comicana (11th order): First time I have to pay taxes on a Royal Mail order (previously only happened with private couriers). Brexit is here.
The Avengers wasn't a 1st choice, but it was on sale and is part of WM 's progress, also continues in the annual I have. The CA is a late (for me) Gruenwald issue with a funny date.
The Byrne run. Not his most inspired work, but still acceptable. I'm even considering getting the Sal Buscema annual.
Most of Purves' runon the cheap. The first Mr. Fixit is the only one that's expensive, I'll have to get the True Believers reprint.
Some more Giffen mayhem with nice pictures.
This mini actually had better art than most of his run on CA. They didn't have the 1st issue, so I'll order it from LS once the previous order (from 7 weeks ago) arrives.

Bought on the 20th, shipped on the 22nd, received on the 6th via USPS Priority + GSP (Sending). American eBay seller: Had to bid on an auction to get a reasonable price for high grade copy. Not so reasonable with postage and customs (60€). And all that because of what exactly? Because "A member of the Elementals inspired by Hydro-Man appeared in the live-action film Spider-Man: Far From Home"? Get out of here!

Bought on the 13th, shipped the following day, received on the 5th via USPS International Economy + Correos. Second LS order to arrive (on time) out of four; so far one arrived well outside the estimated delivery window and another didn't at all. Not much luck with the post and MyComicShop so far, for what might be the best overall service around: Some more Gruenwalds, I already have about 50, which is roughly a third of his run: basically the last thing he managed to finish before dying. Some reprints for some "key", expensive issues. Some Iron Mans I still recall from way back in the 70's. Wrapping up some contemporary series. Hellions isn't doing so well with the new artist, Old Man Logan makes 36 out of 50, not really interested in the other 14 issues between #34 and #47. X-Men is finished and completed now.
