    Bro, I asked to have my metal charizard returned because it was there for over a month (due to stabbing issues) I had to sell it raw because the face was all scratched up. We sign a waiver  when we do this.

    That is awful, sorry you experienced that. Literally never sending my cards over again, we need like video evidence of the cards they grade because all these cases are very sus.

    Wouldn't it show up on the certification image then? https://www.cgccards.com/certlookup/4033892002/ 

    Either way I had a similar thing happen with 8 in a bulk batch. 6/8 were resolved by reholdering which was great. The remaining 2 cards were sent back reholdered still slightly marked (wouldn't that be qualified for a value reimbursement rather than putting something back into the population that doesn't match grade and cert images?). Thankfully were lower value ones so I didn't care any further at that point.

    Yea exactly my thoughts. My card should be a 10. Seems like population report. I was so high on CGC but most likely will just send this elsewhere, maybe it'll get treated with some respect.

    Hello

    Send an e-mail to customer service with the before and after pictures, and request a reholder, as it appears to be just on the slab, and not the card.  They should send you instructions and a shipping label to send the card back to us.  The e-mail Is:

    service@cgccards.com

    The mark was 100% on the card. I reached out to CGC customer service and was offered $20 credit. Not even enough to send the card in to be regraded with subgrades lol. 

    Any who, I cracked the slab and wiped the mark right off. So sad, it was probably what stopped my card from receiving a 10. all subgrades were 10's besides the surface of a 9, I'm assuming because of the random smudge CGC put on it.

    It could be one of multiple things. Yes leaving fingerprints could be one of them. It might have very light surface scratches you might not be able to see or a dent. They use special lights and machines to look over each card. Hopefully there are graders notes for you when the pop report gets released next month or so...

    Awesome, thank you for this info!

  5. Hi all,

    I sent my first submission to CGC, and I was curious if anyone else had concerns about the surface sub grade on cards. I submitted an umbreon vmax alternate art. All other sub grades were 10, and the surface was a 9… Card was extremely clean, does this happen if like maybe I like finger prints or anything on the card? Or is it like manufacturing defects?

    Just curious if anyone is experiencing the same thing.

    Thank you!
