    "fingerprints breaks color" -- that's one I have not seen.

    You can press a book more than once -- I do it all the time.  After the third time, it's probably not going to get better.  If I pressed this book and you showed this to me I would have re-pressed no charge.

    There are just a couple of things that should have (easily) popped out.  Referring to the picture annotations from @JollyComics if your book has already been pressed then I would have expected:

    1. The crease above the Credits Box to be gone.

    2. The crease on thte right side of her cape to be gone.

    3. The small issues should have come out/off with light cleaning.

    4. The spine ticks should be much softer... not necessarily gone, but softer.

    5. The biggest issue that I see is the color rub above Poison Ivy's head. Is this the "fingerprint"?

    Since you already have notes (which I obviously was not groking at the time) means that the book has already been sent to get graded, come back, and you have the notes?  Sorry I might be confused.

    It is a very nice book,

    Thank you for the information, I can see at lot of these have gone.

    And I'm not sure if this is normal, after quality control it seemed to go back to encapsulation, is it possible they changed the case?
    The comic has arrived to me today and it has some debris and a scratch that the book did not have in the images provided.

    I will drop some photo's in.

    Did you use the tracking tool during your submission to see that this book was actually at CCS and cleaning/pressing was ‘in process’? If not, I would recommend, from my own experience, at least contacting CGC to ensure the book was pressed. They have been known to skip that crucial step on occasion. If it was skipped they should allow a free re-submission. If it wasn’t skipped then I guess a couple fingerprints are a much bigger hit than anyone thought…, I would have also put it in the 9 range.

    I did see it at pressing for a while.
