synch Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 So a while back I dropped off my first books to cgc at ECCC How is that for my first two books I was quite pleased, both me & my LCS thought my TWD would be 9.5- or up & web 9-9.5 range & maybe off white pages... Now that one really surprised me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a 9.5, but it was only used for Wizard direct-submit books, wasn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not aware of any 9.5's for Wizard, maybe it was only used for the 1/2 issues Which is more rude? to correct someone? or let them continue to use the wrong information.

Not aware of any 9.5's for Wizard, maybe it was only used for the 1/2 issues The hideous "Wizard First" program graded brand new books at the 9.0, 9.5, or 10 level before it was axed because of its hideousness.

synch Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 (edited) OutSTANDING! You have an unlabeled Canadian price version! Don't let anyone take it from you for the regular US price...that baby is RARE! VERY nice! Is there really that much of a difference?! Also how do you tell?.. I live in Canada So I honestly did not think anything of it .... I wonder why cgc would not have labeled it if they normally do ?... Should I be asking for a free reslabing or something ?. Oh as per 9.5 I honestly did not know that ... I thought I have seen them before on ebay but I guess not ... Good to know thanks guys! I guess what I "meant " to say is 9.6 then haha How is that for my first two books I was quite pleased, both me & my LCS thought my TWD would be 9.5- or up & web 9-9.5 range & maybe off white pages...

I wonder why cgc would not have labeled it if they normally do ?... Should I be asking for a free reslabing or something ?. There's a MASSIVE difference. The Canadian price versions ONLY appeared on newsstands in Canada, had a tiny print run compared to direct and US newsstand versions, and are almost non-existant in 9.8. So yeah, you did very good. Instead of the $70 or so dollars it's worth, it could conceivably be worth $300-$500 to the right collector. (thumbs u As far as CGC not labeling it, they just missed it. Will they relabel it for free? Sure. But you have to pay to get it to and from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synch Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Would you happen to have a picture of what the label looks like ?.. Yeah just trying to decide if its worth the shipping costs for the book... Still its neat to know I have some that is considered to be rare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
