I try not to complain on the forums. I know CGC & specifically @PaulS.does his best giving us updates + information that we would not get elsewhere.
But I just received my bulk sub of 168 cards from early April, and as I was incredibly excited to open the package, about 50% of my cards *Yes, you heard that right, almost 90 of them* have scuff marks that will not rub off (you can feel the divot where the plastic of the case is scratched/chipped).
How is this still a thing? I paid almost $150 for shipping, another few thousand to get my cards graded, wait over 8 months to get my cards back - and now I feel like a sh**ty person even listing these on eBay with the scuff marks.
Some are WAY worse than others, but even the tiniest of a smudge should not be a thing that is STILL HAPPENING.
I still have about 1k cards in the grading process; and I hope to god that they fix this before I get those back.
-This concludes my Ted Talk rant. Thank you for coming and listening to me b**ch.
Edit: Looking at the cases further; some of these are scuffed to the point where its comical. When people say on the forums "My cards are taking forever, I want a refund", I always roll my eyes because I think that's ridiculous.
In this case, I seriously want my grading refunded for some of these cards. Unless I'm allowed to send these back Express to be fixed; this is seriously unacceptable. I'll post some pictures in a bit.
Edit2: Here are just 2 pictures of 2 seperate cases. All of them look like this, though. Huge streak scuffs in the middle. How do I sell a 10's & 9.5's with perfect cards and scuffed looking cases ☹️
Edit3: The cases are foggy because of my tears
