  1. The "uncurving" would lead to damage just like the curving. My recommendation at this point is Gerber Mylars and fullbacks.
  2. Perhaps they better start paying attention? Perhaps they should take real action and cut the excuses? Wheels may already be in motion....
  3. Oh! You're right! That's ALL the proof I need! I'm glad CGC is fixing the unfixable! I'm going to spend all weekend packing my next submission! PS - common sense isn't all that common.
  4. And this is the nail that pins them to the wall... Why bother replacing the inner holder if there wasn't a problem in the first place? They say the banana holder isn't an issue. They claim the bends don't damage the books inside. BUT...they feel the need to replace them?
  5. I'm pretty sure they THINK they are growing the company, while simultaneously destroying their reputation through cost-cutting measures. Their attitude is "90% of the people won't notice. We can juggle the other 10% and who really cares if we lose them?" They can just gaslight all their customers.
  6. Short-term might be their only concern. After all, they can abandon ship right before it sinks. Sell it for a song. Sail off into the sunset with all books in the green. How many times have we seen a successful company destroyed after selling out?
  7. They were bought out by a corporation that cares about profit and nothing else. They compromised quality for speed. In all fairness, that's what people seemed to care about. Years of constant whining about turnaround times. Now look!
  8. THAT is a 9.8??? Please tell me this is a joke? Remember when we were told THREE graders looked at every book? There is NO WAY that is happening now. I doubt there are even TWO sets of eyes on each book if they are pushing trash like that through.
  9. I am done subbing books for a LONG time. I'm just a little guy, too. But if enough little guys make the same decision... THAT is how businesses die.
  10. I guess I just haven't been paying attention. Does this guy purposefully destroy comics to get a rise out of people?
  11. I met DavidtheDavid on the boards and then in real life. We became pretty good friends in person. He used to live across town. He's moved pretty far away now, but we keep in touch.
  12. I have no problem with this thread being in Comic General. But I am a nobody.
  13. You're right. I'm sure I will continue to greatly overpay for books that I want, only to turn right around and sell them for a loss. I'm more upset at the lost book than the lost money. You win some you lose some.
  14. I lost my on my Planet 48. Someone out there got a hell of a deal. I think I may actually quit the hobby over it.
  15. These days, the CGC probably wouldn't detect the marriage in the first place.
