bump?

I thought you had recently resubbed yours and got an upgrade.....then traded with Bob S. to get a different one (which you then cracked).....did I get that right?
I re-subbed my 4.5, got back a 5.0 but cgc damaged it. Which was really was the straw that broke the camels back for me with cgc. I traded the 5.o for a 4.5 with better PQ. Coonsidered selling it and even got a very nice offer on it. but Decided to consider a trade 1st. the trade is taking longer than I'd like so I just decided to crack it and put it in a mylar.
Much happier with it now.
So are you willing to still trade?
If the right Hulk1 comes along, sure.. but I'm not actively seeking a trade anymore.

I still say this should not happen with such regularity. It is not good for the hobby.
The grade swings lately have been gigantic. In another thread an 8.5 to 9.8 was referenced. Where is the integrity ? Where is the consistency ? Why should a corner with multiple color breaking creases be regarded as an 8.5 one day and a 9.2 on another.
Is this not analogous to the old, pre-CGC 'wild west' days. CGC must have realized they were designating this particular copy of Showcase 22 as the best copy they have ever seen. With such esteem there needs to be more scrutiny. I'm sorry but I do not like the current state of graded comics.
+1
Well said... And I know many more that feel the same.
+ 2 I've damn near cracked everything .

Nice batch of Hulks, they present nicely for the grades and no chipping. What sort of resto does your #1 have?
Whats up Bro? Thanks man! The label says slight (A) ..."spine splits sealed to cover". Thats my only graded resto book.
They can probably be removed.. I kick myself every-time you post it for not trying before I sold it to you
Whats up Mark? I have thought of doing that. But all the threads I am seeing as of late with cracking books out...and the cover falls off...or CGC gives you a big chip in the cover, makes me think I may like it with the resto.
ouch, rub it in why dont ya
.. I never said anything about re-subbing it. Raw is Awesome!
Nah man I am not rubbing anything in. Key books that, things like that happen too..make me ill. I would also be crushed. I still thought your copy was nice...even with the new chip. The other one...with the cover falling off for the SS would have KILLED ME. But i understand why you got mad. And I understand your new found....crack everything out stance. (thumbs u
Yeah, I was lucky that it got the bump. I woulda been much happier with a downgrade and no chip though.

So, I have a potential trade in the works. I think I've decided not to sell. I got two very strong offers, and in all honesty I just didn't want the cash. So It's trade or nothing.
-
Just posted my 4.5 for sale.. I'm just not thrilled with it. If anyone wants to upgrade and use their undercopy in trade.. PM me.
Are you serious? Brother that's a beauty!
Yeah, my old 4.5 was just sooooo much nicer
Hard to explain this, but I think the fact that I owned a 4.5 that blew this one out of the water keeps me from enjoying it. I think I need a lower grade copy or a stunning 4.5 to replace it.
I get it,but this isn't an AF 15! There isn't thousands of them around.
I hear ya, hard to own a $6k book that I'm not in love with though..

Let's get back to the Hulk 1 Club. Well, I mentioned a few weeks ago that I was going to be back.. Well, I'm back!
Can you guys guess the grade?
2.5 ? looks much better.
-
I've had a few books go out attached and come back detached. I gotta say, it's not a good feeling. It's like my own personal CGC hall of shame.
yep, I know the feeling. I had to downgrade because I couldn't live with the chip.
Never again.
-
marvel runs got a tales of suspense 10 back that failed prescreen and it came back with a big chip too
That's 4... somethings up in Sarasota.
-
Did you here what happened to JerseyComicBoys F.F.#1,while it was in CGCs possession?
Yep, in addition to my Hulk 1, and a few other books I know of.
I would be livid!
I was, but I replaced my Hulk 1 with a nice (not as nice) copy, and CGC will never again get a dime from me. So, I guess I'm over it.
These are reasons I just can't send books to get graded,so I just buy them already slabbed.I would be crushed if my AF 15 came back F-ed up.
Live and learn. I'm one of 3 (that I know of) members whoes books got destroyed in Sarasota recently. That's enough for me to go full on raw.
The only books I'm keeping slabbed are my Copper 9.8s.

I'll be cracking out the rest of my slabs this weekend after I buy more Mylars.
