Figured I would post this here for more eyes to see this post and hopefully guide CGC to come back to their senses. For now on any future Marvel card submission that I had planned on making will be going directly to Beckett for slabbing. Been on the fence for awhile with submitting to either CGC or Beckett. Chose CGC mainly because of the blue label and how it would match my comic collection even though the Beckett slabs are superior. However I do ask this question, why should I or anyone else waste their money on getting a CGC PSA knockoff when instead it would be a better option to just invest in getting PSA slabbing done to our collection instead? This way myself and others can ensure the maximum return on investment for our card collection if the decision is ever made down the road to sell off. The blue CGC label along with the slab design is what makes it unique compared to the other brands. Taking away the iconic blue label hurts the brand uniqueness and in the market they are still working on building up their audience within the card community. They have cemented themselves in the comic collecting community but it's a completely different story when it comes to cards. Sure they may make a quick profit with people resubmitting slabs for label changes, but it will permanently damage the card collectors trust with the CGC brand. Also, lowering their grading standards to instantly change older 9.5's slabs to 10's for a quick cash grab from reslabbing submissions doesn't put much faith in the authenticity of their own graded products.
