  1. This round is closed. Results coming in a few. I still have some grades to record. I am not sure exactly when the results will be posted. Matt needs to e-mail me them.
  2. 81 people have submitted their grades. If you enter a grade for a book that is not a CGC grade, I will not be able to record any of your grades. It's not fair to award someone 0 points for a book because of a typo. If this happens, I will allow someone to correct the grade for that 1 book only, as long as it's done before the deadline.

  4. Last year, I incorporated a paragraph regarding "people on the list" in the marketplace guidelines. If a buyer or seller is on the Probation or Hall of Shame list, it is ok to make 1 post only to alert the community. Being on said list does not mean a seller is restricted from listing books for sale or a buyer is restricted from purchasing but, we understand the need to make people aware of the situation.
  5. Hello This is the maximum size we can grade. 11-1/2” tall 8-7/8” wide 1/2” thick
  6. If the "different price" is lower than the paypal payment price, it is a discount for using other payment methods. The only way you can offer a different price for other payment methods when paypal is one of the options is, if the different price is higher than the paypal price.
  7. Hello Please edit your terms of sale regarding offering a discount for other methods besides Paypal. 9. Your post cannot violate the terms of service for your payment methods. (NOTE: Specifically, no surcharges for accepting PayPal, or discounts for other methods) Thanks
  8. Hello If they are not on this list, we don't grade them. Mike https://www.cgccards.com/card-grading/cards-we-grade/
  9. Hello I am not aware of any plastic storage boxes available from us at this time. Perhaps, other collectors will chime in with advice as to what you could use for storing slabs. Mike
  10. CGC is excited to host the extremely talented comic book creators Jim Lee, Scott Williams and Alex Sinclair for another amazing signing event!

  11. I was hoping the e-mail drip campaign I had installed could be used to send PM reminders that the next round has started. Unfortunately, It would be too much work to set up. I would have to manually add everyone to it. If it worked on secondary groups, (your primary group is member) I would all you to one like "contest member" . I'll tinker with this some more. The round runs for 4 days, and I always start the next one on the day the prior one ends. It would seem that one could just show up every 4 days and not miss any rounds. Anyhow, I will entertain suggestions.
  12. I was told we’re actually just shifting resources right now to tackle EC. You should be seeing some movement on that tier over the coming weeks.
  13. Grades are due by Wednesday May 11 8:00 PM Eastern time Good luck! The reveal of the actual CGC grades will be posted shortly after the round is closed, with scans of the books in their CGC holders. The scoring results thread most likely won't be available until the following day. The next round will most likely be posted within 1 hour after the previous round has ended. Click on the image to supersize it. Because the contest involves only scans, books were chosen with defects present only on the covers; there are no significant defects to the interior pages or interior cover, such as tape, missing parts or brittle pages. No restoration is present either. All defects relevant to the grade should be visible in the scans. If there is a defect that is not visible, we will try to provide a graders note. Please copy this list of books and paste it into our PM, then post your grades on the same line. Sensation Comics #68 War Action #2 Strange Tales #152 Silver Surfer #1 X-Men #101
  14. Here are the rules. Please read them carefully. There will be 4 rounds with 5 books per round. After the deadline for the signup thread has ended, I will start a new thread in the hey buddy can you spare a grade section, scans of the first 5 books will be posted, and I will start a PM thread between myself and each participant. Be sure to use THIS PM thread to submit your grades every round. I will post a list for the books in the thread where the books are posted for each round. Please copy and paste that list into our PM, and add the grades for each book. Only CGC grades (numerical) will be accepted. Non CGC grades like fine+ or Very fine- will not be accepted. Be sure to follow the threads that the books are posted in. This is the only way you will know when the next round starts. There will be no update when the next round begins sent to our PM thread. All of the threads with the books and the results will be posted in the hey buddy can you spare a grade section. You will have 4 days to get your grades in. After I record your grades, I will reply to the PM thread so you know that your grades have been recorded. Only grades from .5 to 9.8 will be accepted. Grades of 9.9 and 10.0 that are received, will be recorded as a 9.8 Please do not bump the PM for any reason other than submitting your grades. Nobody will be allowed to change their grades. Do not discuss your grades with others in the thread until the round is closed. Also, please do not ask any questions about the books publicly or privately (by sending me a PM) . If I am provided any special notes from CGC, I will share them in the thread. If anyone fails to submit their grades for a round, or do not submit grades for all of the books in a round, their participation in the contest will be terminated. You will be able to participate in the next contest. After the 4 days are up and the round is closed, I will post scans of the books in CGC holders to reveal their grades, and include the graders notes for the books. A new thread will be started to show the results of each participant. The results thread will most likely be started the next day. There will be a new thread started for the next round. This thread will most likely be started within an hour after the prior round has ended. 0 points is the best score one can achieve. 1 point will be added to your score for each grade that is higher or lower than the actual grade. If the actual grade for the book is 5.0 and you guess 4.0, your score for that book is 2. If the actual grade for the book is 5.0 and you guess 6.0, your score for that book is 2. If the actual grade for the book is 5.0 and you guess 5.0, your score for that book is 0. CGC will be awarding $500 for 1st place, $250 for 2nd place and $100 for 3rd place.
  15. I am pretty sure I created a thread for these types of posts... A few is ok but, this is too much.
