Dropping a Grade

[Tnerb]

Do they have teacher conferences when a grade changes? Is there extra credit to make up for it?

 

Back in June I turned over three books to CGC for a signature series with two of my own personal books. The ones I bought off the rack. I thought it would be cool to have some of my own be graded with under the signature series banner. One of the books I sent in was originally graded by another registry member. The book only received a 9.6. I still bought it from him.

 

The thing is though I thought the book was not graded correctly. I felt so much that this grade was wrong I sent in the book again. I know I would have been over joyed with getting the book back in a 9.8 SS. I was shocked that it didn't get the grade I though is should have had in the first place. The problem was it dropped a grade. It could be argues, but at least it is signed.

 

Of course that would be like buying a an Amazing Fantasy #15 on e-Bay, sending it in to get graded and the book received a .5 and then being told well, at least it can't go any lower. Another book that I had signed by Stan Lee that I sent out as a 9.6 is now a 9.4. This bothers me and makes me feel hesitant about sending books in for a regrade and signature.

 

I am trying to learn the nuances of a 9.8 book and a 9.6 book. My friend picked up a JLA variant cover and I would love to send that in to see if it will get a 9.9 grade. The book looks beautiful. Out of the other books I sent in the 4 9.8's are coming back just that. My X-Men #10 and Daredevil #7 have both been graded. I feel that should be a journal by itself.

 

Thanks for Reading
