  1. That sounds like a very logical conclusion and I am entirely in agreement with you on this. This would also explain why we've not seen them and most likely won't unless he ever decides to unload them for liquidity on a rainy day (pun intended lol). Would still love to see at least one of them, though, as I'm curious if they're all white label, black label, or a mix of both!
  2. Hello (again) @CGC Lyndsey! I wanted to add another set to be added to the queue for the CGC Trading Card Registry new set requests list: Select a Game: Marvel Trading Cards > Select a Sub-Category: Creator Era (1986-1996) > Select a Set Type: Marvel Universe Series V (1994) - 3-D Hologram Cards (#'s 1-4) Thank you for your help as always in creating new sets for us TC enthusiasts to have fun and compete with...it is greatly appreciated! ~ SR
  3. Hello @CGC Lyndsey! I wanted to add another set to be added to the queue for the CGC Trading Card Registry new set requests list: Select a Game: DC/Marvel Trading Cards > Select a Sub-Category: Creator Era (1986-1996) > Select a Set Type: Amalgam Comics (1996) - Holopix Cards (#'s 1-6) *One thing to note that since there is only a Marvel 'Game' category, this would need to be in a new category since one for this type of card does not currently exist as its a fusion of DC & Marvel characters. Thank you for your help as always in creating new sets for us TC enthusiasts to have fun and compete with...it is greatly appreciated! ~ SR
  4. What??? That's crazy! Maybe someday we can get a new reboot of the show (or full length movie form) that can not be inhibited by the restraints of cable TV...imagine the possibilities!!!
  5. Just my unasked for 2 cents here, but if I were you and had waited over a year for this I would be involving law enforcement or an attorney. When you don't get a response or are ignored for this long, especially with a piece of property this valuable, it's time to escalate this to the proper authorities. I quit having grace when I pay for a job or pay toward a job that is not being fulfilled. Your situation has gone on way longer than I would have let it and I hope you get some resolution to it. I feel you're more likely to succeed in the form of having criminal charges filed and / or being made whole some other way than to receive your book back into your possession but I am still crossing my fingers for you! People like this have no business being in business with ANYONE for ANYTHING. If you can't handle your business as a seller you have no right to be operating a business. Period.
  6. Just a little over a day to go - it's up to $8,100! Place your bets, fellow Walkers!
  7. It's currently sitting at $6,300 with over 5 days to go!
  8. The idea of this happening in ANY capacity for ANY submitter at CGC is beyond unacceptable. Is there any substantial proof that this is occurring? If so, it would be a HUGE liability for the company as that's way too much trust to put into a submitter as ALL reholders are subject to re-grading and should NEVER be put into a new holder without any form of review. NO ONE should get that kind of preferential treatment. NO ONE. Also, in no way should you @comeaux be subject to getting any sort of ban or suspension for mentioning this if it is found to be true. I'm honestly surprise we've not heard more about this because to me the idea of submitters getting special treatment and ignored reviews of submitted comics for reholdering is just as bad as the current scandal at the heart of this thread.
  9. So after reading about this new news on the DD#1 (which definitely is horrifying) - does this mean these scams have been going on since this far back, prior to 2018 even? Sorry if I missed that along the way...but having a few old CGC keys I'm trying not to be too paranoid about my investments. Seeing this makes me more worried than I already was...

  12. Hey @CGC Lyndsey! Can we get the following sets added to the creation queue? I honestly can't remember if I ever added these in the registry as official requests via that method so I figured I'd post them on here as well just to be safe: 1. DC Cosmic Cards (Impel) 1992 Holograms (#'s 1 through 10) 2. DC Cosmic Teams (Impel) 1993 Holograms (#'s 11 through 16) 3. DC Cosmic Master Set Holograms (#'s 1 through 16) - continuation of the #'s from Series 1 & 2 *Note - these requests are for the holograms ONLY from those sets - not the base cards. Thank you! Please let me know if these are okay to request! ~ Ryan
  13. This is great news to hear! When will this be happening?
  14. Thank you @CGC Lyndsey!!! Here is a link to the Comic registry 'request new sets' thread: New Set Requests Thread for Comics Basically once a set is created (after it is found out to be a legit request, of course), the administrator who creates the comic sets makes them in the order of when they've been requested, thus creating a 'queue' for the new to-be-created sets. Once made, the admin then crosses them off the list. If a set cannot be made then it is noted by the admin either in the OP's post or by quoting them and then denoting why. I know it would be a lot of work to add this to your plate, but it should be noted that if this were to happen in the trading cards sections there would need to be noted an already established queue of sets that are in line that we don't know about so that posters wouldn't constantly ask you when their requested set would be created. I'm not certain of this but I imagine there are far more types of comic books to deal with than non-sports trading cards so eventually I'm certain these sets would be caught up to the point that there wouldn't be a need to create new sets each week but since the registry is new I understand how much time goes into their creation. I appreciate you for it and for the communication with us (and for the update you just gave me in your previous post). I'm super excited to see the new Marvel sets soon - thank you again for all your help!!!
  15. Hey @CGC Lyndsey - so sorry to bother you but I wanted to check in again (still new-ish to the card collecting game via CGC, btw) but are there plans to release more than 1 set a week? It's been close to 3 months since I made some new set requests (for Marvel/DC type cards) and since we can't see the queue I'm wondering if it'll be years before these come to fruition. I know it's a lot of work so please don't think I'm complaining with this but as an avid collector of cards it's just disappointing that something like 9-10 of the sets I collect not to have registry sets (so far only 1 does). All I see each week is Pokemon/Magic/gaming-type cards sets being created and I'm certain that's probably the majority of what card collectors go for but still I wanted to ask how realistic anything Marvel/DC related will be created before 2023 is over. Sorry again for asking and I know how much work it must be to create these new sets each week...but without seeing any type if queue of sets on the list to be created (like we do in the comic section) I'm just curious as to what the estimated wait time will be lol. Thank you for your hard work and sorry to reach out to ask this. ~SR Sidenote - will it ever be possible to get a queue for set requests started like we have in the comic forum? Basically when a new set is desired people request it and it gets put in order of when it's requested. This would make things more transparent and give us more of an idea of wait time, at least...just a thought. Thanks again for everything!
  16. So are the turnaround times slow at this point in time (matching the 30-day quote they give on the submission page)? I'm close to sending some in and wanted to know what to expect.
  17. The same issue has affected the smaller set of Holograms from Series I. It seems now that the 10.0's are vastly more highly scored than anything 9.0 or below. I realize there is a point differential based on grades but it seems beyond excessive now as anything below 9.5 is pretty much worthless by comparison if that makes sense.
  18. Ah - I saw these posts and just thought it was announcing new cards being released, not new sets being created for the registry I'll be sure to keep an eye out on this thread for the new Marvel registry sets on the horizon! Thank you for the info, Lyndsey!
  19. Hey @CGC Lyndsey! Is there a way to know when new sets are created? I know there is probably a long queue but on average how many new sets are graded per week/month? No rush and I don't want to come across as impatient (I'm certain there are tons of sets in the queue) but if there's an estimate as to how long it takes for sets to be created once they're placed in the queue that would be good to know. Still new to the graded card game and while I know what to expect with comic sets I have nothing to compare to for the card sets. Thank you for your help in advance - it is greatly appreciated!
  20. Hey everyone! For the last few days I've attempted to peruse the CGC Cards Population but the page keeps showing 'error report' when I arrive on it (and no card I search for ever shows up...in fact nothing shows up). Any idea what the issue is?
  21. Hello and welcome to the boards! Have you thought about checking out eBay and possibly selling them on there? Just search Marvel Cards (and whatever series you need to inquire about) and you can see what current listings are up at comparable prices (and be sure to check the sold listings to find out what they're selling for). Or you could always submit any for grading through CGC.
  22. Looks can be deceiving I have all the books I just haven't added my missing one in yet (been a while since I've been able to take pictures/update the inventory) - I plan to do so sometime this month, though! Thank you for the kind words on the set...it's been a labor of love over the years!
  23. Thank you @CGC Lyndsey! I know this may be answered already as well, but is there a place where we can see the 'queue' as to what is on the list of to be created sets? In the comic forum there is and they get crossed off as they're created but I didn't know if this existed in the card section or not. If so, please let me know (if not, no worries). We appreciate the help you do for us in the card registry!
