    Oh is it like a Child World Clearance type sticker? Even I don't like those.....

    I have an Iron Man MIB with one of those on the Window, I really need to get rid of it. Marvel Comics wanted a picture of MIB Mego for a project recently and I excluded it.

    I totally understand where your coming from Brian, but if you had big ugly sticker on say the front logo of a WGSH mib, well for me that is an eye sore and being a total purist to me would be having it how it left the factory, without price sticker.

    I like them as well on toys, although one of my pet peeves in life is price stickers on anything that fall apart and rip when you try to remove them. Then you gotta pick at em for ever and it's totally annoying.

    I'm with palitoy. Love seeing those price stickers. Only adds to the piece for me.

    Sometimes, just the natural oil of your fingers is good enough to remove the glue snot.
    Role your finger over the area ... over and over and over -- (never use your nails)....
    The glue will start bunching up in roles.
    Take the role off.
    Clean up with an alcohol swab.

    That's what I used to do.

    Removing price stickers

    Hey,

    I know it has been asked many times before. But what is the best way to do this without staining for litho on card or boxes?
