People will chime in if I am wrong or if things have progressed within the last check-in but nobody has received any form of compensation at this time. Folks are still unclear what the reimbursement would even look like. I wasn't impacted so I can only feel disappointment. I'm pretty sure I would have lost my mind by now though if I was impacted by this scam.

Thanks for the response.  I wasn’t impacted either, but if I was I too would be losing my mind if left hanging this long.

I’ve fallen way behind on this thread.

Has anyone been reimbursed from CGC for books that were found to be tampered with?

I had this poster hanging in my room as a kid

Last night I pulled out my FF Annual 6 for a read. I enjoyed the experience so much that I grabbed a few other FFs, starting with issue 130. Again, it was fun, but my 133 is in a slab, so I couldn't finish the story.

129 is one of my faves.   Loved the introduction of Thundra

Thanks for the feedback. That seems like a definite no. 

I think it’s pretty cool.  I submitted IM 118-133 to Layton for the SS label, and they came back sequentially numbered.  Not sure anyone else thought much of it though.

I think I’d pay more for wolvy 1-4 if they were sequentially numbered and in the same grade.

So, damn...it's almost as if this book has been restored to NM condition.

The 8.5 and 9.0 appear to be the same copy, but that 9.4 appears to be a completely different book unless it was also micro trimmed at the top cover. Look at how the top cover edge is cutting off the MARVEL title.

I do not know this store owner from Adam, and I have never had any dealings with him or his store to my knowledge, but I feel it is more likely than not that he was duped by the scammer.

His store is effectively providing the vehicle for getting the books graded and likely selling many of them (basically adding credibility to the scammer) - I can not imagine an owner of a brick and mortar store risking his own reputation or subjecting his families financial well being to a scam like this.

Unless they invented this reholder scam together, at what point does the scammer go up to him and say... I have this great scam with CGC, and I need you to help add credibility to it!... and at what point does the store owner agree to do it?

I think it is much more likely that the scammer told him that he scored a great collection of multiple ungraded ASM 300s, etc.

I may be proved wrong here soon, but my nickel is that this guy was duped. 

The store had pics on their Instagram page showing multiples of the books that the scammer was using.  I don’t think there’s any way that CBS wasn’t involved in this reholdering scam .

wait..

 the scammer of this thread has been named?

Try to keep up

Will we be getting any further statements from CGC regarding this matter?  I’m curious if there will be an updated list that encompasses all of the scammers submissions.

I guess the question is, will CGC feel any responsibility for the books that were just swapped out without being reholdered??

Knowing the reholdering shenanigans of this submitter, I would think CGC would be held accountable for failing to flag all of their submissions at this point.

That’s the list of impacted books from swapgate.  Totally separate from the 27 books stolen by CGC employees.

So now that we know the scammers skipped the reholder part of the scam at times, will CGC be issuing a new list?

2000 total CGC submissions with a gross declared value of $4 million from the scammer

So if i sold the wolverine 1-4 in a lot what you think is the most i could get just ballpark? I didn't pay too much for them and grading and i graded a secret wars 8 that was 9.8 white so at least 3-500 there. 

I think you’d do better to sell them individually.

precodemonster on insta has a tampered asm 238 that he sent in. Looks like still waiting for compensation.

Thanks for the link.  Will be interesting to see what the refund will be
