A simple solution to the "preview" vs. "first appearance" problem would be to take the definition back to the beginning AND to reflect the actual market.
This "preview" of Action Comics #1 appeared in More Fun Comics #31
they need to first correct the market for More Fun Comics #31 and Action Comics #1
I agree with this , at the same time I will have to see your More Fun Comics #1 and raise it with an even closer related , yet just the same, has not sold at the same premium for a comparable grade Action Comics #1 Ashcan. Basically same book. Same first appearance. Ashcan is rarer, still market and personal choice of the consumer drive the regular Action Comics #1 higher . I know this isn't the same comparison of preview vs 1st app and more of an apples to apples but the point is no matter how we or the rest of the hobby see it , people have their own feeling on what value is and it is only worth what someone will pay for it.

3 hours ago, milk_man said:Of the 30 CGC graded books ive purchased, a third have visible rings that severely detract from the cover's presentation. I now don't want to risk buying CGC books or submitting books to be graded since it can easily come with a pile of additional hidden fees to be done properly. $25 for a membership, $15 for a new holder, $5 for "handling" and upwards of $75 in shipping means the book I already paid a premium for will now require an extra $120 and 2 months of waiting to be presentable. Imagine going to a custom framing shop and being given a 33% chance of your frame having fingerprints and hair inside. CGC should be ashamed of the poor job they're doing.
This right here... as many others here have stated that this is the issue when there is no competition. Still that excuse aside. Gone are the days of most taking pride in their work. They have just let it go to the point where TAT are a joke. So hit or miss, and just the same, the chances of getting an actual slab worth, not only what we as the customer have paid , but the time it has taken to receive, has kept me and MANY other from not only buying, but sending in a lot of our collections. I have a TON of books I would love to slab, yet my last submission (17) almost half have NR. Only a few they would call extreme enough (maybe) for reholder, but I do not want to go down that road for several reasons. Brittany has already done so much to try to help with all of our issues with these.( HUGE THANK YOU TO BRITTANY!! YOU ARE AMAZING!) IT IS Not fair to keep piling it on her. I do not believe it is fair to pay for shipping to CGC to get these reholder and cgc offers a grading credit for the fees. Really? With subpar , unacceptable service we need to pay return shipping and that is your answer? Credit to go through this all again. Plus all of the time spent on this whole process. Which as of late has gotten WAY out of hand. With how fast you slap these garbage slabs together and how much you have been profiting you can not staff appropriately or fix the NR issue? "It's con season!" Again let's skip the excuses.. it's not like some random event that snuck up on you. This is every year. Like anything seasonal. Staff up for it. Truly to be considered the top and really only grading service for a multi billion dollar industry you sure are not living up to that moniker.. It is time for a change..

You know I sorta hated his first film too, the one set in NYC.
You must mean KIDS.. yeah."two thumbs up" it says on the posters and cover..Nothing like a sleaze rape scene to wish I had more hands to give it more thumbs down.. Still Gummo takes the cake when talking about worst movies ever..

I also use this method for most shipping as it makes most boxes cost only a couple of dollars and really light as well as strong. For single CGC comics I will bubble wrap. Make a box exact size. Bubble wrap that box and make another over it. Usually costing a total of about $3 and can usually ship for about $10. Plus when shipping high Insurance value items , especially international, USPS require it to be shipped Registered which I leave the colored tape off corners as the security tape is the only way for Registered.
