Hi... I'm new and I'm just starting to get the graders notes back for my first ever 10 submissions for grading which I Also sent for CCS pressing first and then were transferred directly to grading... so far I have notes on 3 and the results include:
Book 1 was pre-screened for pressing which they decided NOT to press but which includes the following note: "multiple crease cover breaks color"... would they not try to press that out because the color would still be broken? Is it just as bad to have a color break without a crease as it is with one? If they had gotten them pressed out would it have changed the grade much?
Book 2 book WAS (supposedly) pressed which includes the following notes: "heavy crease full center of front cover", "moderate creasing to cover"... neither of these say anything about breaking color, so shouldn't they have been pressed out? How much do you think this affected the grade?
Book 3 book WAS (supposedly) pressed which includes the following note: "light, multiple finger creases left top of front cover"... this also says nothing about breaking color, so shouldn't these have been pressed out? How much do you think this affected the grade?
Does anyone with more experience than me have any idea if this is to be expected? I have zero experience with this so any insight is appreciated... I also have not received the books back yet so maybe the notes just aren't accurate/complete enough and the ones that don't say "breaks color" actually do? After watching this video from CCS I'm even more confused... it seems that all of the creases/bends/spine bends etc should come out and if anything just leave missing color... or am I missing something?:
Thanks so much!
