Ira K reacted to Prince Namor in Where in the world was the Quality Control at CGC???
Because they still make money from it.
9.8 CGC Graded Comics are worth MORE than someone's raw 9.8 opinion. It's the way it is because CGC essentially has a near monopoly.
If a car manufacturer starts getting a bad part from one of their vendors and it causes issues with a vehicle and becomes a problem, the dealer doesn't stop selling cars.
There's a market that's been created. It's still a successful market for many people.
There are some people who feel the need to present a PR influenced angle regarding CGC's issues and some who feel the need to be more honest with how those problems are viewed, but make no mistake - until something better comes along and is accepted - if that could even happen at this point - their use in the market isn't going to change drastically because of various production flaws.
It has nothing to do with 'kool-aid'.

Ira K reacted to Parabellum in Punisher fans, let’s see them favorites..💀
So far….Just need #1 and #3 CPV’s. I wish CGC would grade the TPB for this series that was released in the 80’s. Too bad the book is too thick to have slabbed.

Ira K reacted to CHASEnBLUE in This Week Back From CGC
Just in. These were sent in and cracked for the Perez signing but that did not happen - opted for the labels and new cases.
Bummed however because when CGC sent my message on options for submitted books for the signing, I wanted the label and a press to try and bump the grades. The press did not happen even though I made that clear in my responses back. Maybe another day...

Ira K reacted to Terry JSA in This week in your collection?
Despite some minor flaws, it’s a beautiful looking 9.0.
