  1. So, I have been back and forth about this several times. Invision says that you guys who are seeing unread messages need to mark them as read. I have mentioned that the people bringing this up have been on the forum for several years, and are saying they have no unread messages. I recommend going to your inbox, filter unread messages, and mark them as read. If you still are getting the same unread messages popup, let me know.
  2. The grade should not change, as the book would not be regraded unless damage occurred while the books was in the slab. (shipping damage ect...)
  3. We are still discussing a strategy to resolve this.
  4. 36 spots left. Lets try to fill them. This will help to ensure that the person running this is overwhelmed with work.
  5. No. that label was exclusive for the McFarlane signing. If submitted again for another signing, that label will be lost and your book will not be returned with this custom label.
  6. Only 5 days left to sign up for the contest. It ends on Monday April 17th 2023 8:00 PM eastern time. Here is a link to the signup thread.
  7. The signup for the Spring Edition grading contest ends in 5 days. It ends on Monday April 17th 2023 8:00 PM eastern time. Here is a link to the signup thread.

  9. In most cases, I believe we do not know the actual signing date during the time the majority of people are sending us books.
  10. We don't know the date yet, but are finalizing it.
  11. I am told The Avatar sizing issue has been resolved on Mobile. Invision has requested some clarification regarding the message notifications. @KCOComics And @alexgross.com Are you able to access your inbox and filter by unread messages, considering that some of these messages are dated over a month ago? If not, are you encountering any error messages or issues?”
  12. Yes, you are entirely responsible for the words you use. How is this a real question? It's obvious that you two are not going to come to any kind of agreement. I recommending you both agree to disagree. Otherwise, I will have to step in and make this stop.
  13. The team is aware of these problems, and are working on getting them fixed.
  14. I am not a judge for the registry awards. However, I do not believe it has to be a complete set to be "in the run".
  15. It's not ok to discuss and/0r give opinions on current politicians. This includes all countries. I removed a few posts. I am locking the thread. It's starting to violate the terms of use, and I see severe conflict coming from it in future posts.
  16. I'll report this problem, along with the others in this thread.
  17. Here is last year's signature Series winner. Best Signature Series Set Sauce Dog – Moonlit Nostalgia Moon Knight Vol 2 (1985) The second volume of Marc Spector’s life as the Moon Knight finds him abandoning it. With Marlene Alraune at his side actively threatening an ultimatum if he picks up the cloak again, Marc has chosen to settle into the life of a philanthropic millionaire. Things go well until Khonshu brings Specter back to Egypt to reinforce their relationship as new enemies arise. Spector must once again become Moon Knight, the Fist of Khonshu! Though short-lived at only six issues due to an abrupt cancellation, Fist of Khonshu is a potent series full of great writing with Alan Zelenetz for the first four issues, and Chris Warner – pulling double duty as the series penciller throughout – Jo Duffy, and Jim Owsley scripting for the last two. Sauce Dog put together this mighty little Moon Knight set in a straight run of 9.8, but the work had only just begun. Sauce Dog decided to make it even better by adding Signature Series to each issue! Moon Knight creator Doug Moench has signed all six books of the Moonlight Nostalgia set, and Sauce Dog has displayed them in high resolution along with great owner comments in the set gallery. Great writing from Sauce Dog is also included in the presentation of The Moonlit Nostalgia set, giving more details about the issues themselves as well as great look into how Sauce Dog was first introduced to Moon Knight and why this was the set to collect! All of this is wrapped up in great custom graphics; this set really pops and we’d like to invite anyone to take a look at it. Signature Series is part of the heart and soul of CGC, and those who like to add the iconic Signature Series yellow labels to their collection are some of the most dedicated collectors we’ve met! Sauce Dog is certainly among them and it really shows in the Moonlit Nostalgia set! We’re excited to award Sauce Dog with the Best in Signature Series award for the Moonlit Nostalgia Moon Knight Volume 2 set! Sauce Dog joins fellow registry user jcronin in being the first to receive an award for a Moon Knight set! Congratulations for all the fantastic work!
  18. Thanks @Get Marwood & I for composing the list of participants for me. We have room for 44 more people. I know there are some fantastic graders on the forum that haven't signed up. Now is the time!
  19. Hi I am on vacation this week. If you could send me a reminder PM on Monday, I would be happy to look into this.
  20. Get Your Sets Ready for the 2023 CGC Registry Awards! Posted on 4/4/2023 Every year, CGC awards the top sets in the CGC Registry. Put your best set forward by 5 p.m. EST on June 23, 2023 to be automatically considered for awards. Winners will be announced on July 21, 2023.

For 2023, CGC is awarding prizes valued at more than $16,000 to Registry Awards winners! As well, we’re pleased to announce that we’ve expanded the number of awards given in the major categories. Winners of major CGC Registry Awards receive a personalized plaque, an icon of recognition next to their CGC Registry set and a $500 CGC grading credit. Winners will also have the option to print a certificate of achievement through their My Account page. Based on the overwhelmingly positive feedback we received last year, we’re very excited to continue awarding Signature Series books as part of the winners’ prize package. This year, winners will receive a CGC-certified Batman #125 Alex Ross variant signed by Alex Ross — featuring a special label and pedigree — valued at $200!

Private sets will not be considered for awards. To participate, enter your set online in the CGC Registry by 5 p.m. EST on June 23, 2023. Winners will be announced on July 21, 2023. CGC Chat Board Awards In addition to the CGC Registry Awards, CGC will recognize three outstanding contributors to the CGC Chat Boards. The CGC Chat Boards are a vibrant community where collectors can come together to share their passion for comic books. It is a resource created and maintained by you, the collector, and the CGC awards would not be complete without recognition of the top contributors. In determining the winners for the CGC Chat Board Awards, we will consider a forumite’s complete history of posts. The winning forumites will receive a personalized plaque.

  21. Very happy to see this much activity in 1 days time. It's going to be a great contest. Special thanks to @Get Marwood & I for keeping track of who is participating while I am gone. Also, thanks to everyone who is trying to round up participants. Hopefully, there will be a full house. as soon as I return, I will copy the list of participants and post them in the second post of this thread. See you all in 8 days!
