    Now with Felicity Jones.  Frustrating that twice the rub on the back didn't seem to bother CGC but the last couple of times it has.

    All mine came back 9.6 too.

     

    I have actually sent a video to Marvel about the ink rubs on their books. While it doesn't happen to every book seems like a large majority of their books over the past year have been having ink rub off easily (especially the back cover).

    Had a special kind of stupid on ebay.  Buyer is: spider_web_comics_241

    Bought a bunch of books with no problem. Then purchases another set but AFTER the purchase he demands a shipping discount. Didn't give him that and he decided to try to leave negative feedback on those items (even though he didn't pay) and then went back to the first books that were fine and left negative feedback on them.

    Lied in feedback stating that the books were damaged, weren't delivered, and a bunch of other baloney. Watch out because he will try to wreck your seller feedback.

     

    BLOCKED HIM ASAP

    Thanks Kevlar! I've been having a heck of a time getting the new CGC slabs open, finding dozens of plastic splinters on the floor for days/weeks after opening. Your method looks like it will resolve that problem.

    I do have two concerns.

    One, when you give it that little twist in the beginning, are you worried about creating any spine stress to the book? I realize it's still in the inner well, and it's a light twist, but I'm always worried about damaging the book (maybe too worried?).

    Two, I've always tried to completely separate the two sides of the slab for fear of scratching the book while pulling it out of the top as you show (which seems much easier). Again, I know it's in the inner well, but those cracked edges are oftentimes jagged, and I worry about making any impression on the book as it's removed.

    Am I overly concerned? Have you ever accidentally damaged a book while removing it from the slab?

    in any case, thanks for the video - very helpful trick with the screwdriver.

    That twist doesn't touch the book...but just like anything you have to be careful when doing it.

     

    I have never damaged a book removing it from the slab like in the video. The inner well doesn't touch the outter well anywhere when removing it...and even if it does, the top doesn't get slab like the sides do when the sides of the slab break.
