Resubmitting slabbed comic
Cnight replied to ValkRising's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
Different grade after each signature. So probably best to keep them as-is (unless it’s a common 9.9). -
CGC Bumped Up a Tier
Cnight replied to JRich282's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
You likely did get the grade bump. I’ve had this exact thing happen multiple times. They seem to like to take the highest sell price in the last 6-12 months and use that as what to charge you. -
Is a color rub a 9.8 Killer?
Cnight replied to TylerHam's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
Unless you can find that exact defect to be a recurring one in that same issue (e.g., multiple 9.8’s with the same defect): then you probably are capped at a 9.6 like @MAR1979 said. -
Where are the scans in CGC notes?

Hey folks I had been looking at the CGC loaded book scans the last few months but it looks like they aren’t showing anymore? Did they disappear or do we got to pay to access them now? -
Bindery tear too large for a 9.8?
Cnight replied to Cnight's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
@KCOComics @marvelmaniac You folks got the same opinion I do; I just don’t think a tear of that size is worth taking a chance on. I was hoping someone would tell me I’m crazy, tbh 🤣 -
Bindery tear too large for a 9.8?
Cnight posted a topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
Hey folks Looking at a nice copy of Avengers 55, but it has a larger than normal bindery tear. I was wondering if anyone thought it too large for a 9.8? Everything else seems press-able or cleanable. Thanks folks! -
Is it worth it to clean and press?
Cnight replied to Bmallory410's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
Don’t think it’s worth it; I doubt it be worth it financially, even if you did get a higher grade here. Go up a full point and the fair market value is only a bit more than the grade you just purchased. Definitely ask the experts if anything can be improved, but I don’t see much improvement on that book’s value with what grades are within reach. -
For anyone that is interested I have been contacted by a detective in Oregon who has been tasked with handling the case associated with Mike and HR. It seems law enforcement is getting involved, and you will likely hear from detectives out of the Albany, OR Sheriff’s department soon. If anyone would like the detective’s contact info; DM me and I will ask them about having you added to the investigation.

The Nanometer Crunch !!!!
Cnight replied to Ed Hanes's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
They clearly used an electron microscope to observe the atoms have been permanently displaced by an extra 4 pico-meters. Automatic 1 point deduction! Joking aside; I think they just used bad wording here. -
TWD #132 CBCS 9.9 send to CGC?
Cnight replied to White67's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
You likely won’t get a 9.9 from CGC; not because CBCS is “lesser”, but because the statistics for a 9.9 are so absurdly small that the probability is non-existent. Keep it as is, unless you are ok with it being a 9.8 from CGC. -
Thanks @LowGradeBronze; can’t physically touch it, as it’s encapsulated. However, you’re thinking what I’m thinking; I thought it looked like either a sticker was there or someone had tried to erase some writing:ink from the cover. I was hoping it was maybe an ink smudge from the printing process……but I think this one may just be damage 😱😭

Unlimited value turnaround time
Cnight replied to Vegabomb's topic in Comic Book Grading and Restoration Issues
Mine got there on 4/1, and it took until 4/8 for it to ship. You should get it out in the next 1-2 business days. -
Thanks hombre! I had once read that the more seasoned graders tended to the High Value and Unlimited Value tiers, but wanted to run it by some folks who know much better than me here. Just trying to figure things out. I’ll likely divide the books up into eras too; I accidentally shipped books from the 70’s with ones from the 90’s, so I expect that may have scrambled the results too.

Hey folks Got a question: does CGC use different graders based on whether you submit a Modern Era, High Value, or Unlimited Value book? I’ve NEVER gotten a 9.8 from an ME submission, but had alot of 9.8 books from High Value and Unlimited tiers Just curious because I have some books that I’m getting graded, and thinking of paying extra for them to go to High Value; if there are better graders, that is. Thanks folks!
