  1. Same here. I am sending back. They said it was due to "vibrations" in transit. The back covers look ok. I am pretty disappointed. My value tier arrived okay, but the modern came this way. The certification is supposed to extiguish any question of the grade. If I want to sell these one day I want to sell "Certified 9.8", not a "9.8 but sorry crud inside the case". Hopefully it will get fixed.
  2. Hi, I am noticing that most of my new slabs received today have some kind of gunk on the inner plastic. This is my first submission with CGC, do I need to pay more to have them put into clean slabs? Is this normal? They are all 9.8, but have staining all over the slabs. I feel like it will cause problems for me if I decide to sell one day. Thanks!
  3. I want to submit, and wondering if this matters if I were to press this Detective Comics #1000... The pages have a slight waviness, nothing too crazy, but I am not sure if that effects the grade for these bound comics. Thank you :)
  4. I can agree with that. It is hard to really capture in a photo without purple glare. I pulled a different yellow comic out to see if there was a similar effect. I think I am just paranoid also! haha
  5. No bleed on the inside, that I can see, although darker colors would be easier to spot. Seems more like foxing, and the more I stare at it, the more I may be causing my brain to pick things out that are normal. There is an area under DDs left foot that looks like rubbing, but that does not turn pink like the area over the Title. Thanks for looking!
  6. HI, I recently purchased a cheap blacklight flashlight. I had been through quite a few silver age comics, until this one arrived today, Daredevil #17. This is the first to look strange to me... but I may be overthinking it. Please have a look at the photos, mostly along the top edge, because I cannot tell if it is normal wear on the yellow, or heavy-handed dry cleaning (which would not appear darker under a blacklight, would it?), or color touch. The right side of the comic appears trimmed from front cover to mid staples, and is crooked from bottom to top of the comic. This may only be a printing defect, but I am not sure. I value anyone elses eyes on this. Thank you!!!
  7. The bottom half of the book skews outward slightly and is definitely wider as you look down the right side. It has been driving me nuts because the foxing looks normal and seems consistent all the way down the edge of the comic. Thanks for having a look!
  8. Can anyone please have a look at this and give thoughts on whether, or not this was trimmed at some point, or from production? Thanks!
  9. I am somewhat new to this forum, so I hope this is the correct board. I wanted to finish collecting all of the DD early yellow costume issues, and a few early crossovers (some after the red costume). DD #1-6 ASM #16 FF #39, 40 Not counting the Marvel Super Heroes issue reprints, are there any other appearances? Thanks!
  10. Thanks I will prob get it reslabbed sometime soon.
  11. Thanks I will prob get it reslabbed sometime soon.
  12. Thank you very much!! For some reason I thought the entire slab would be sealed, or snapped closed all the way around, and I felt kind of ignorant for not doing the research, haha. The white on the corner seemed like someone tried gluing it, so my mind got carried away and it brought me here. The cert # checked out fine before I made the purchase, but I had heard horror stories of people swapping labels. Thanks for the reply
  13. I just bought my first slab, and I understood that it is normal to be able to pull the sides open a few centimeters, but I am concerned that someone tampered with this and changed the label. The inside looks dirty with spots inside the case. Not on the book. Please someone take a moment to see the corners with the tiny tabs. I do not have experience with cgc books. Thank you!
