    Seems like the best course of action probably would have been to retain your book if it was identified on the list, and then negotiate a settlement before sending them the book. If that failed then threaten to sue for damages. Once they have your book the above options appear to have gone out the window and you lose control of the situation? 

    But in the heat/panic of the moment when this first hit...owners of these books were told to send in,  so CGC could identify and rectify the situation.....I'm sure they did not think it would be this drawn out....

    about 16 years ago, I gave up on one of their competitors.

    Two midgrade amazing Spider-Man books, after removing them from the slabs, were missing wraps.

    I also made the mistake of purchasing an incredible Hulk 181, from comic link, in one of their slabs. I resubmitted it to CGC, and it did not come back in a blue label.

    I never bought one of their slabs again.

     

     

    I got burnt by this too....bought a  a Spidey 50 from Comiclink raw in 2000......NM minus raw....sent to CGC and came back 9.0 restored

    I think that there had to be some impetus for them deciding last year to start putting scans in the grader's notes.

    Anyone that is buying comics that is not searching GPA for transaction history, and reviewing the other books in the submission that includes a certification number they have interest in, is out of their minds.

    Of course, how much does even that help, when a submission from 2019, with a FF #2 on the list, has been confirmed by CGC to have been screwed with?

    Here is another book from that submission https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/1393412001/

    Why would I possibly consider buying that comic, when 2 of the books in that submission were put on the list?

     

    Just wondering how you look up what other books were submitted in the same order as ones that are tainted?  Don't know how to search that.....thought only the submitter got that info..............
