Interesting story. Sounds like the LCS is willing to return them for a hefty labor fee, but won't ship them to her.

Amy's quote from the blog:
I went to great lengths to find someone who would be willing to pick up and store the collection. The shop owner wanted the money he paid out, plus $150 for labor and time spent going through and grading the collection. I was more than willing to pay him that. The next time I talked to him, he upped his price by $300. I was still willing to pay him, BUT... he would only have me pick up the comics. He didn't care that I was calling from 2,000 miles away (which he could see if he had caller ID). "If they're so important to you, come on out here and get them!" Never mind that I didn't have a dime to my name, and was borrowing money as it was, to try to pay him.
There's got to be someone in AZ that can pick them up for her.
