Make Mine CGC!

First Journal entry so please bear with me.

My Amazing Spider-Man 252 had been graded by another company as a 9.4 with ow/w pages. Now while this isn't a bad grade in some eyes others would agree we know our books. What they look like, the feel, any blemishes, etc etc. I know this book. I've owned it for longer than I remember. I could tell you where I bought it. What shirt I had on. The store, what the weather was that day.

I also knew that book was no 9.4 with ow/w pages. Frankly the grade disgusted me.

So the book sat for almost a year and a half at the 9.4. Until last month.

Ron Frenz was appearing at the Pittsburgh comic con. Of course the cracking of the (IMO) poorly graded ASM 252 was a no brainer.

Had the book signed by Mr Frenz and submitted to CGC.

And I'd also like to add while I can, the young ladies at the CGC booth were incredibly kind, patient (Herb Trimpe kept us waiting for a few minutes) and helpful.

Anywho, checked my graded today and saw the book was graded a 9.6 with WHITE pages. I knew in my heart this book was a better grade and page quality and CGC has proven it to be a fact.

Reliable and consistent grading. The reasons I will be using CGC from this day forward. Thank you all at CGC for the fantastic work you do.
