I know it's been brought up before, several times, but does anyone(preferrably employed by CGC) know if/when CGC will make that HUGE jump of about 1/2" and start encapsulating, and grading 2000A.D. magazines(the original sizes), and treasury edition comics?

I appreciate the replies, thank you, guys!

Looking for an approximate grade on this ASM 101 signed by Roy Thomas. Would appreciate grades with and without the Signature taken into account. I would also appreciate opinioms on how much a press would benefit the book. TIA

We would need to remove the comic from the polybag in order to assess its condition and grade the book. The book will then be encapsulated and the polybag will be returned along with the encapsulated comic. (in most cases, we try our best) The polybag will not be encapsulated. We ask that you do note that the comics may be removed from the polybag for the purpose of grading on your submission form.

I see this is an old thread, but I wanted to ask about polybags and this is the best response I've found in the forum search so far. I have several dozen copies of some modern age comics that came polybagged like these Morbius the living vampire #1s. They are all fresh from cases, but they all have creases front, and back from the rear seam on the polybags. Would this be considered a manufacturing defect/error? Assuming that this is the only defect present, how much would that affect the grade? What would be the highest possible grade with such a defect? Tia
