  1. Why does it not differentiate between the gold and the chromium variants?
  2. CGC Census | Certified Guaranty Company, LLC (cgccomics.com) I believed there is a problem with this census. The "Mystery Box Edition" was a Gold Foil limited edition to 100, Kevin Eastman & Peter Laird cover signed by Kevin Eastman. Then there was a virgin Chromium Edition limited to 150, Kevin Eastman & Peter Laird cover. I think you have the two combined as a foil cover.
  3. For some reason I am not getting any notifications.
  4. My membership has expired, and I am now a free member. Will this cause me to stop getting signing event notifications? Thanks
  5. Mine still at Received at CCS since last August.
  6. Got my Crises back also but only a 9.4. Anyone know when the Scott Campbell signing will happen?
  7. I had a foil one that had marks just like that on the back and 2 on the front. I hoped it was the case so I sent it back to re-holder and it fixed the front 2 but no change to the back so they ruined my comic when it was pressed or encapsulated the 1st time.
  8. What is the status on the Chrissie Zullo signing?
  9. How in the heck did you get 3 9.9 from CGC. I can't even squeeze a 9.8 out of them with a near perfect book.
  10. There is some information you provide on the invoice if they read it. I also attached a separate page of info with more detail and said I could provide pictures. They provide a label to ship to them and seems there was some wording that I may be charged for return shipping. I really expect my damage is on the comic and it will be down graded and look the same or worse but then I will know they ruined my comic on the original handling.
  11. I recently had one they said they could not press because it was embossed. They gave me the full $20 refund.
  12. I just purchased 5 comics and I think USPS may have done just that. Drive a truck over the Gemini folder they were shipped in. All have bends and one was a foil that can't be pressed out.
  13. I just got back one like this and was very disappointed. Several spine ticks and scuffing on the back that were not there. It was a SS book so I would think it was handling during the pressing or grading process since it should not have come out of the yellow signature folder before this, Right? Shipping should never cause this. Oh, well you live and learn.
  14. I have the same thing on one SS I just got back and hope it is on the case and not the book. The back foil was perfect when I sent it in. I just sent it back as a ME to see. Thanks for the pics.
  15. This is why I think they need a "pressing" status or show them received to CGC and then change to CCS when in pressing. I have submitted a lot of books this year and paid for pressing on all of them. I have my doubts some were actually pressed.
  16. I finally got it to work.
  17. Not able to submit a ME form for submission # 4287645 mailed to me on 10/2. Any known problems currently?
  18. I thought so also but took a cloth and cannot change any of them. May be on the inside of the case.
  19. Just got one back that I thought for sure would be a 9.8 or higher. Nope, 9.6 after they ruined the back or they may have graded lower. The back was perfect and now has little smudge marks all over it. The front has a few tics on the spine that were not there but can't tell from my before pics. Done sending any more.
  20. Very unhappy with what I got back. It was not as I sent it to CGC. It got a 9.6 which is good but came back with smudges on the back that were not there when I sent it in and some front spine ticks that I can't get a good picture of these. I can't tell if the smudges are on the comic or the interior plastic but will not wipe off.
  21. Same here. Several came back a 9.6 that I was sure would be a 9.8 and I even did a press to make sure. Maybe that was the problem.
  22. The question is, can CGC press a foil comic? I had an embossed one the pressing fee was refunded saying they could not do it. I have another, just foil, that I am waiting to get back and it is in "Grading/Encapsulation/Imaging" so I assume it has been signed and pressed and not burnt to a crisp.
  23. Ok, I must have missed it. What is the reason we think it was downgraded from a 9.8? I can only see maybe the ink or smudge marks on back bottom left and middle left. I would give you a 9.8. I have a few I sent to CGC that was disappointed in the outcome also. Mostly I felt maybe they were not pressed. A few I looked back at my high res photos and saw the problem and it was me. I wish anything less than a 9.8 had at least one note to help explain.
