CGC Mike

CCG and CGC Comics Statement on Holder Tampering Incident The Certified Collectibles Group (CCG), which includes Certified Guaranty Company (CGC), is aware of an incident involving an individual tampering with CGC Comics holders. Based on our initial review, we believe that the incident affects a few hundred comic books. CCG exists to protect the collecting community, and in the last 36 years we have certified more than 85 million collectibles, each one backed by a comprehensive guarantee. The trust that we have built with our community sometimes makes us a target of bad actors and, despite our vigilance, this individual tampered with some of our holders. If you purchased one of the books that this individual tampered with, we will ensure that you are appropriately compensated for losses arising from any failures in our services. We expect to share a list of books that we believe are impacted as soon as possible. We have also retained a leading private investigative service and outside counsel to conduct a comprehensive review of this incident and our processes, and to help ensure that this individual is held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. We have already made significant improvements to our processes as a result of this incident, and we will continue to take appropriate steps to help ensure that this type of incident does not happen again. We expect to share more information when we have it. In the meantime, if you have any questions or would like to share any information with CCG, please reach out to us at ReportFraud@CollectiblesGroup.com.

I just posted this again because the previous page was showing a wide text due to an ebay link. I will ask that this be fixed.

I did post a thread in the announcement forum. If it is decided that forum members would like a locked, pinned thread in comics general regarding this, I will do so.

Moving to the Ask CGC forum. @MattM CS

I talked to Mike about it and he agreed to open it so yes, it's a great Christmas present. To be clear, you asked for the point to be removed from your account and the thread be unlocked. I told you that the point stays, and I will be reopening the thread. My decision to reopen the thread did not have anything to do with your request. It was inevitable that an AI discussion would need to be allowed going forward. However, I do not take kindly when people open up a discussion, knowing that it had previously been closed a short while back. The same OP none the less. Why am I posting this? It is due to the fact that I have seen multiple posts of yours saying that you have been working with me and that is why this or that happened. (not your exact words but means the same) No forum members are working with me in any way in making decisions on this forum. People do make requests and I do listen and take them into consideration. However, I take the time and weigh everything, and make a decision based on my 12 years of experience in moderating this forum. There is no need to reply publicly or privately, as I will not be replying. Also, I do not want to see a discussion revolving around this post.

It is fine. Exceptions are made for this type of situation.

I am going to unlock this thread, as I can see where it might be an important subject in the comics industry. If it goes like the last one I locked, I will be vary generous with points to any and all accounts that I feel are a violation of the terms of use. Everyone is supposed to be 18 years or older here. I expect you to act like an adult. No trolling or any contentious posts will be tolerated.

I locked the last thread you started about AI. It's a violation of the terms of use to start another one after the original thread has been locked. You should have asked me before starting this one. I might have said ok.

Hi Welcome to the forum. Here is a link on how to submit comics. Mike https://www.cgccomics.com/submit/how-to-submit/

We will be closed tomorrow.

You would need to ask customer service in this forum. https://boards.cgccomics.com/forum/23-ask-cgc/

Sure. I will move it to comics general.

It must be a variant.

Here is my PM post.

Our Database Specialist has been very busy. When I am provided with any answers to people's requests, I will post them. Meanwhile, enjoy all of the free popcorn.

I will check but, I believe you will have to wait for an announcement. CGC and FCBD, united in their passion for comics, invite enthusiasts worldwide to stay tuned for forthcoming announcements leading up to the momentous day on May 4, 2024, promising an immersive experience for every collector and fan. Follow @CGCcomics on Facebook, Instagram and X. Follow FCBD on Facebook at Official FreeComicBookDay, on Instagram at free_comic_book_day and on X at Freecomicbook.

1 person has been banned from the movie forum for a month. I trust there will be no more of these types of postings in this thread or there will be more banning's. Let's take this discussion in a different direction. I do not want to see quotes of clearly contentious posts. Different direction...

I have just put in a request to do so.

Hello I have merged your 2 threads in this section, as you are only allowed to have 1 per selling section. Also, please add a return policy. Thanks

Hi This is what I was told: For the first question, yes, the overall grade is guaranteed. But it would be put into a new black label and there would be no subs. As for the other question, I assume we would just crack it out if requested.

I have cleaned up this thread. Going forward, posting off topic/derailing posts may result in a permanent ban from the thread, ban from forum, or posting restrictions forum wide. A few years ago, we raised the age limit for members to 18. Lets start acting more like adults. This goes for all of the threads. I am seeing posting patterns from multiple people that I do not like.

Hi Let me flag a few customer service reps and see what they have to say. @NickiO CS @MattM CS
