  1. I brought this up to the team. This was added to the FAQ: What happens when I submit a book for Holder Review? If your book is determined to be correctly graded, it will be reholdered with a new certification number and returned to you at no charge. If your book is determined to be incorrectly graded, CGC will retain your book as evidence, and you will be compensated for the current fair market value of an accurately graded book at the original incorrect (higher) grade. Fair market value is calculated in accordance with the CGC Guarantee. Why does CGC ask for my purchase receipt when I submit a book for Holder Review? CGC's request for your purchase receipt helps in our fulfillment of the CGC Guarantee as well as our ongoing investigation of this incident.
  2. Agreed, ideally that would have been flagged. I guess I always thought all books were "Universal unless otherwise stated". Sorry guys, that was my fault. I usually add the CGC books to my folder after a few days, so I didn't notice the SS until it was too late. I should have checked for SS. I was told in the beginning of these contests that all books would be blue label.

  4. I recommend you put each other on ignore. There's way too many posts to support this. Opinions may differ. I am not going to tolerate this type of back and forth to continue.

  6. This round is closed. Results coming in a few, followed by the graders notes. The results thread will be posted tomorrow. Round 2 will be posted in an hour and a half.
  7. A couple of people have brought up the issue number of the first book. I typed issue number 1. It is clearly issue #12. I am not going to edit anything in the middle of the round. Just copy the 5 books titles and place a grade beside it in the order that the books are listed.. You can leave it as it is or place a #12. All I look at is the grades you submit. I log the 5 grades in the order they are listed. If you change the order, your grades will be listed incorrectly on the spreadsheet.

  11. Grades are due by February 6 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. Please copy this list of books and paste it into our PM, then post your grades on the same line.

  12. 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 Grading Credit. $500 for 1st place, $250 for 2nd place and $100 for 3rd place.
