Floppies
*Term normally used by those who slab comics.

Slab
*Permanent entombment of comic for those who collect plastic and little numbers.

Minty Fresh
*High grade

Pre-screen
*3rd party opinion of ultimate opinion of grade prior to slabbing minty fresh floppies.

"I went to a garage sale I saw on Craigslist and found some minty-fresh floppies that I'll send in for pre-screen and hope to get slabbed."
