CGC Acquires Classics Inc - Response to your Questions

1,162 posts in this topic

1. Maybe CGC should put the grade the book may have been in prior to being pressed. In their best estimation.

 

2. I know someone pressing who uses a release paper that has no coating whatsoever.

 

3. This thread contains more butthurt than RMA's first 26,419 posts combined.

 

4. None of you have ever been laid.

 

lol

Dear Mods,

 

I love the "Ignore" option. However, it cannot prevent me to read posts from those that I have on Ignore when they are quoted by others. Is there any way to have an Ignore function that works all the time ?

 

That post made me laugh....

 

What's good for the goose :lol:

 

Is good for the gander :sumo:

If we can submit questions. Here are two I would like addressed:

 

Now that CGC has an in house conservation service, will CGC change its stance on non-archival tape? Specifically the increasing of universal grades when non-archival tape is used to re-attach covers, centerfolds, etc to a book. This grading loophole has promoted the highly destructive practice of adding new tape in an attempt to increase the CGC grade.

 

If CGC is not altering its stance, will the in house conservation service be actively promoting this highly destructive practice?

Oh what new forms of Hell will we devise for our funny books?

 

 

That thing is fake. It is a painted electric drill with two parts of a Norelco shaver stuck to it.

 

He didn't want to scare any of you potential customers away, but you discovered the ruse. This is the real laser that will be used...

If anything. Maybe they could lighten their stance on archival tape. Who's to say a kid didn't randomly get lucky with his tape purchase.

...and along those lines, will they disclose their own pressing as part of the book's notes? If someone presses a book via CGC, then sells it, then the next person sells it, then I buy it, will the pressing info still be available (assuming it ever was in the first place)?

I think in general the answer will be "NO". I don't think they will disclose anything done through Matt's hands. Should they? I would say no. It is up to whoever submits the book to decide what to disclose.
