CGC's statement in essence is it's a "for sure maybe" eventually. Best way to build confidence in your product is to not cover people who get shorted by your ineptness.  Classic

I'm in the same boat, trying to be patient with what is clearly an insurance and legal process at this point.  They have my (expensive) book, can't tell me if it's now restored, can't tell me what the new grade might be, can't tell me when anything will be resolved, can't tell me if I'll get my money back, can't seem to answer any of my questions, no matter how simple.

I've been on the boards for 22 years and have appreciated CGC for all they do, warts and all.  But if I'm screwed on this book somehow (i.e., not made whole in a reasonable and timely manner), there will be hell to pay.  Every day and week that passes, they are mounting frustration with an important group of people -- those who have been harmed by a scammer taking advantage of a faulty holder process and bought it with trust.  At least they should have their leadership letting people know what's actually going on in a general sense.

Back to waiting with patience...

Case of CGC adding insult to injury.  Incredibly short sighted on CGC's behalf "again".  They should get a PR person for there PR person.  I hope that it works out for you Dan.

Fantastic Cover, beauty!

Amazing Spider-Man 210, NM, $45. I am exceedingly cautious in calling a book NM, but this one is just tremendous.

Treasure Comics 7 :  Frank Frazetta first "Solo" published work.

I wonder how many Ffffssss Black Rock give about comics.  Any respectability CGC ever had is long gone.  It has been proven over and over again with multiple issues from damaging historical books for the sake of "improved" grades, gift grades for "Pedigree" collections for major auction houses, horrible grading especially as of late, and outrageously egregious quality control.  This "scam" is just a symptom of a broken business , it was going to happen sooner or later with what seems nobody at the rudder.  Who really cares what CGC is "doing behind the scenes", there apathy and greed created the perfect storm and it's come home to roost.  I feel bad for the "customers" who were taken in this scam in CGC's corporate apathetic slothful greed.

Besides the Scammy Douchenozzleness , of this situation it really shows the glaring QC problem at CGC.  If they miss this what else do they miss.  This is along with there normal hack and slash treatment of slabs and comics.

What is the point of grading if it's inaccurate and wrecks comics.  Hopefully this will bring back the none label chaser part of the hobby for raw dogging.  It will be interesting to see there PR spin on this debacle.

"Purpose of grading services CGC's primary service is to provide a reliable, consistent, and non-partial comic books grading and authentication, which can greatly mitigate all these challenges and pitfalls that are inherent with comic book collecting."  I guess there "mission statement" must be optional at this point.

Damaging and partaking in known or unknown chicanery with peoples treasures.   By default they are promoting more 'raw dogging" then slabbing, in my mind actually a good trend.

This any many other reasons are why people don't buy from Metropolis. Hopefully you purchased cgc graded comics or you might have a second issue with there famous raw grading.  Kind of a "good enough gang" mentality.  I sincerely hope you are able to get this rectified.

Hello, my name is Chris and am an owner at ComicProLine. I am here to clear up any confusion about or bags not being made in Canada. There was one other gentlemen who emailed us with this regard and I hope this isn't you because we emailed you telling you that there was a mess up with the print of our labels at the time! The only things we get imported from China are our 60pt boards, plastic boxes and our toploaders. Everything else is made here directly in our warehouse in Canada. We had thought we caught all of the miss printed labels but I guess a few still got out. We have stopped working with the company who messed up our labels back then and the labels are displayed correctly now. To anyone else who was confused and wanted a direct source of information as to what the truth is, this is your direct explanation. Have a wonderful day everyone and Go PRO with ComicProLine!

Please dont take just this from this thread.  The review of your product compared to Gerber should be what you are concentrating on.  The review is correct and this market is probably yours to win or at least put a big dent in if you you make some adjustments to your product.   

CGC qualifications...2 feet and a heartbeat.  I was perusing my friends recent submissions got back some 9.6's and 9.8's but that was before encapsulation.

Most look like the spine side was slightly folded to fit in the inner well.  Unsellable unless you like ripping people off.  I guess it's like the plumber's mantra.  Bleep goes down hill.  Pathetic

"Were working on it". 

Killer!

As a company CGC should be embarrassed.  This is going past quality control into the pathetic realm.  Sad.

I simply stated the reality that it was going to be devastating and it has totally been devastating, contrary to what most people thought was going to happen. 

Well, I have to correct that. It's been devastating to people who can't spend $1000's on comics. Most on here can't seem to relate. 

No I can't relate to you at all. And it's not about comics.  And for that I am blessed.

CGC please keep pushing people towards raw and self grading...With the advent of there "outstanding" cold press methods..Phenomenal consistent grading.. "World Class" Quality control.

Not to mention there "Strategic" timing in a soft comic market and just overall Gougyness.  Kudos CGC...Kudos
