  1. I have a few orders that have been paid for, but still show they are in the quality control stage, just wondering if anyone would have an idea when I would be able to see what it was graded. Thanks
  2. I’m curious to see how color rub on a cover impacts a book that is otherwise a solid 9.8 Candidate. The color rub in the pictures is very minimal, how much do you think this would knock down a 9.8? The books have no other issues.
  3. Thanks for the insight! It’s not a super expensive copy, but it’s a mid grade ff49. So there might be some incentive, not a much though. I’m always worried about unseen resto when I make a purchase over a couple of hundred dollars-have been burned once, and it sucks
  4. Thanks for the insight. Married couples and swapped staples are always hard for me to identify. That being said, since the bottom one looks good-I am going to hope the top one is legit, but we will see after I get it graded
  5. So, now I’m a little worried I don’t think it’s a rip, but I’m always cautious about resto work…tell me what ya think from the pics.
  6. It was. Although it looks like sharpie, or pen, not really covering up anything even though it’s over two color breaks.
  7. Thanks for the info, but the spine is white, and I checked just to be sure, and it has nothing.
  8. Didn’t think of that..I’ll check. The notes say color touch on the front cover-is that normally just a generic statement?
  9. Gotcha. I was referencing other pics, and didn’t see it in any other copies. Thanks for the info!
  10. Picked up a copy of Hulk 180, that was already graded, and had a restored label. Was looking to remove the restoration, just for the experience-I haven’t had any restored books before. however, the “restoration” looks like a kid just drew a little on the cover in some small spots-not to hide any flaws. Can someone help me figure out if this can be removed, or if it even really is restoration? *note the green spots on the woman’s hair at the bottom
  11. Hello, I recently received my books from a submission, and all of them have a loose inner well, that is causing a slight knocking inside anytime I move the slab around. Is this normal? It doesn’t seem secure, or safe for the staples in the comic. Any insight would be appreciated!
  12. I just received back some of my books and all of them have this. If you move the book at all there is a slight knocking movement. They look normal, but slide around just a little. I hope it isn’t a problem.
  13. Yea i know that. On their form, the service was listed under the reholder section...and I think referred to as a crossover reholder somewhere.
  14. Are the turnaround times for Crossover Modern revolver the same as a regular reholder? It’s not specified on the current turnaround times page.
  15. Hey! I just wanted to see if I could get some of the books in this submission pressed 3825878
  16. Hello, Can I add services to a submission even after its status is “scheduled for grading”?
  17. I recently bought this copy of green lantern 87. Everything looked good at first until I noticed how much whiter the cover is compared to the actual pages. And since this is a white cover that surprises me. I have never came across a married cover so I don’t know what to look for. Any insight would be appreciated!
  18. Hey I’ll grab one of those Darth Vader 3s if you can wait until this weekend
