Startling Terror Tales #5, CGC 7.5 Vf- Current bid $4,200 USD - Ends 2/29/2024 L B Cole classic demon cover. Highest graded copy, one of 2 in 7.5, none higher. Highest graded copy ever to come to auction. Crime Mysteries #12, CGC 8.0 VF Current bid $802 USD - Ends 3/1/2024 Gruesome Hollingsworth strangulation cover Highest single graded copy, none higher.

That's possible. I just had 150 slabs and we needed to move them pretty fast, they took 40 nice books and getting them pressed and CGC'ed then to auction as well. I'm in Canada so shipping is a bit of a pain... It just seemed / seems like the right move. And they took everything. So...

Yikes thanks! I can't delete it but I'll delete the content.

Thanks! They are beautiful and I have had them for 30+ years, but.... bills....

It's funny - I was looking at those "316 cards" correlating to "350 slabs"...

I am just dropping in and out of this thread but I have been thinking about the long term implications to the hobby. These two articles were part of a mountain of bad news the sports cards collectors rec'd in 20018-19-20. And yet 4-5 years later their hobby is booming. And their issue was completely widespread and affected EVERY CARD. Yes we have (yes, I said have and not had) micro-trimming as well but comics of all grades are a little harder to fix ('allegedly') than cards are. So what does this mean? I feel the industry will be fine. Bruised but fine. For us on this thread it will have lost a bit of lustre but... A side note - art galleries and auction houses deal with a lot of these issues with provenance - that is essentially what @comicwiz @agamoto and the rest of the fine detectives here have been doing - establishing provenance. I suggest that CGC/CBCS/PGX give every submitter a random ID and make that part of the graders' notes so the public can see their submissions. Transparency. Also once a book is graded maybe there could be a spot for submitters notes where we could say something about a book and where it came from. Personally I know where I bought 95% of the books I have and I am sure the rest of you do too. That's the way our brains are built. Would it be anecdotal? Yes. Would it be perfect? No. Would it help? Yes. https://www.blowoutforums.com/showthread.php?t=1304673&fbclid=IwAR3lsWMEosKyKwWSMkebNGkhI4xgxzfg1iur2nEM7eQZcWv2d2eGmhgqoqM https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2019/07/18/baseball-card-collectors-suspected-rampant-fraud-their-hobby-now-fbi-is-investigating/

I watch a lot of ebay sales and I did notice there was a distinct lack of Hulk 181s being sold in the 2 weeks after this broke, and interestingly 180 had a resurgence... But it seems people are trickling back into the 181 market. So we will see!

Plus it is YOUR BOOK - this is not hypothetical for you. Its Ironic that in December I sent all of my CGC books off to be auctioned in the next 2 Comiclink auctions... None of my books are on the list - my highlights are top census Startling Terror Tales #5 and some nice Cole romance - but damn was the timing off for me to sell my collection?!?!!!

Man, I don't know about you - but I'm getting really sick of seeing that beige fibrous upholstery in the background... It's giving me PTSD...

It kind of 'closes the loop'

Hey - has anyone thanked the people who were paying such 'intriguing' prices for these books? Without them - nobody would have looked twice and we would still be in the dark!!! Kudos! :-)

Amazing work!!

i think they probably had a white patch then took a 4 color patch from a teammate's card, inserted the fancy patch then sent it in. A very similar scam to the one we are seeing. I could't find out how anyone spotted it but many people caught it right away.

I have been away since page 100, but wonder if anyone saw this? https://www.instagram.com/p/CvxqEyZJGxn/ Patch replaced in UD Cup rookie card...

I'm pretty sure you had said "reborn" not reincarnated. I'll go check the tape... ;-P

That's the same scenario that started the whole 'inside man' conversation. Which makes it seem much more likely. I mean like 98% likely...

I really think we need to define 'speculation' before we go any further.
