Thank you!

Hi there - Wondering about the best way to go about getting books added for consideration in a competitive set. I have several books that do not have slots available (but would if the list were complete). I understand this is all user generated/moderated and have real appreciation for all of the work that must go into administering sets, so I don't want to create a bunch of work for any admin. I also realize that it is virtually impossible for a set to keep up with all releases. Anyway, just wondering what the best approach is here. Many thanks, as always! ~SQUID

This is virtually the same explanation the seller gave - he has one batch this is not showing as completed yet in the CGC system. He probably just hasn't realized he's still missing a book or two from that order. I reached out to CGC and he is also. With the variant A/B issue, the seller (who has additional copies) is sending them back to get corrected. I have to ship both back to CGC and await corrected certs/slabs. Fingers crossed! I appreciate your comment - thanks so much - was admittedly in a bit of a tailspin on this thinking I might have been fleeced. Thanks!

Awesome - yep! Figured it out from this. Really appreciate you helping me get started here!

Hi All - I bought two slabs from a (large) seller on e-bay and the cert numbers do not yield any results when I search for them to add them to my set. I have messaged the seller, but I wanted to hear from the community whether this is a) cause for alarm or b) has some reasonable explanation. Somewhat relatedly: I registered two books - one is Variant "A" of an issue, the other is Variant "B" of an issue yet they both show up as Variant "A" when searching the cert numbers. To be clear: they are definitely different variants in both art and run (750 run of one, 1000 run of the other). Is this an error I need to have CGC correct? If so, I am assuming I should just message CGC support, but please let me know if there are additional/alternative steps to take. Thanks in advance for your input and assistance in this matter. Cheers.

Thanks so much for your reply. I'll try to figure out adding/creating a custom set. Thanks!

Hey all - New here, new to collecting. Just starting to try to register my slabs and I can't seem to find any "General" category that would let me just enter all my books in one big group. Am I just missing something? Or do I need to select the Title for each set? I'd hoped entering in the barcode number would allow me to a) simply register my books and b) allow the registry to categorize it additionally as it sees fit. Anyway, any advice in getting my slabs registered as efficiently as possible would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
