Hi, I buy lots of comics and have them pressed and graded through CGC (I think I have sent in over 140 in the last year).  I just noticed that I have about 7 comics that were graded that have scratches on the holographic sticker. This is not shipping damage or damage after receipt. The sticker only could have been damaged prior to install and your quality control missed it, I did not notice it until now and it has been months.  I was going to resubmit them as errors but now the website says that you only have 14 days to submit for damage reholdering.  What should I do to get these fixed?  

I already had sent a few comics back to reholder for this same reason.  My customer number is CS245457

Thanks,

Justin

Save time, money & frustration by skipping CCS, and just doing the straight resub.   None of those defects will improve with a press.

Thanks for the input.  I had a feeling I should just resub.  

Wanted to see peoples experience with grading when using crossover service. Has anybody had issues with comic being damaged from the process?  I found a few old topics where some people said when it was a low grade from CBCS, it went lower from CGCS but on the higher grades not so much.   

The comic I am planning to send in to press and re-slab is a Fantastic Four 110 error in CBCS 8.5.

The grader notes from CBCS were - spine stress breaks color, light edge & corner wear, tiny rust stains back cover spine

Thanks for any input!

Thanks guys!  That is actually quite helpful information.  I was expecting to have a general consensus on this but clearly that is not the case.   Some Buyers care and some do not!    Happy Turkey Day to all!!! I appreciate all the input. 

Greetings,

I wanted to see your opinions on the difference invalue on a 9.8 white pages versus 9.8 off-white.  I have an ASM 135 9.8 in white pages, does not trade much, saw a 9.8 off white sell a few weeks ago at Heritage for $6,600 and trying to understand if it makes much of a difference in value. CGC only shows there are 37 of this comic in a 9.8 but I can not tell how many of them are white pages.

Thanks for any input!

Mate, never listening a wife's advice on business, war and revenge!

I agree!   lol..  Problem is I take things waaaay too far.  

here is a new one to add to the list..  After winning the auction and ghosting me for a few days, he responded quickly when I told him i was going to cancel...told me he had a family emergency and would pay in a few days.. Then ghosted...  I really wish ebay would do something with this deadbeats...this guy has really good feedback and sells stuff at auction... I wanted to give him a taste of his own medicine and bid up his auctions and ghost him but my wife convinced me not too...lol.

Hello!

The submission has been located and pushed through. We are showing it is currently in our Quality Control and should be shipped shortly. Once shipped, you will receive an additional email. Thank you for your patience and understanding!

Morning Matt,

Can you check on this again for me?  Per your message a week ago it looked like it was going to be shipped shortly but I just saw the status change into Grading/Encapsulation.   Was hoping to get this before I leave town next week. 

Thanks,

Justin

I didn't want to jinx you by specifically saying 9.8... 

 

THank you so much.  You have good JUJU and good luck coming your way!!!!!   

Now I just need to decide when to sell this.  I can use the money but figure I should wait a while until things heat back up.   THen the decision between where to sell...lol.

Just got an email about an adjustment today. ASM 194 got bumped to Walkthrough. I have 2 other books in the submission. Did we get an answer as to whether all books in the original submission will be shipped together?

cb

Nice!!   All the books ended up being sent back together.  I did not get the notice about the adjustment until after pressing. The notice came to me after grading.  Good luck!!!

Thanks for the update

Justin

Morning Matt, Can you or somebody confirm they were able to locate this order?

THanks,

Justin

cmgsportscards_and_comics? Top-Rated seller with over 500 positive feedback? Seriously? Damn! It's getting worst out there!!! 

I guess Ebay does not really do anything to Buyers that do not pay.  You would think ebay would make it a ding against feedback for nonpayment......

I know. I was really surprised.  I thought to myself when they won "great, this should be an easy transaction.  But no.  They did not even have the courtesy to respond to multiple e-mails.

good news for who...CGC? Or you

Clearly CGC 

Lol.  I guess for both of us. ]

I presume it will ship together with my standard submission, it was 8 books.  Did not get any notification from CGC until after status had gone into Quality Control.  

I was just interested to see how common or uncommon this was.  I am pretty much a newb to CGC/grading.

The most recent CGC 9.4 sales for Amazing Spider-Man #135 average under $900, so there's a good chance you got CGC 9.6 or higher since the Standard Tier has you covered up to $1,000.

The last CGC 9.6 sale was $2,000, and the average in the last twelve months was $1,150.

Thanks Valiantman!  I appreciate the data.
