Rules:

 

- As usual, paypal, checks & money orders are happily accepted.

- Not interested in dealing with people in the PL or the HOS.

- All books include free shipping in the US, for international buyers I charge exact USPS Priority Mail cost

- No-hassle returns accepted on anything I sell. I'd rather have a satisfied customer than try to stick someone with an item they don't want.

- :takeit: gets the book

CGC has always been willing to slab counterfeits because there are enough tells that the authenticity is never in question ...

 

You may be thinking of the Love & Rockets b&w Magazine that they recently started slabbing - or Gobbledygook 1 and 2 which they still won't accept for grading?

Cerebus #1 CGC 6.0

$600

 

Genuine copy.

Presents nicely for the grade - biggest defect is the bottom corner crease.

The L&R and the Gobbledygooks were printed and hand-stapled by the creators so counterfeiting them is extremely easy. There's really nothing stopping someone from running to Kinkos and making copies of either the authentics or the counterfeits. CGC officially recognizes certain counterfeits (TMNT 1 and 2, Cry for Dawn 1, Cerebus 1) due to historical value and easy-to-identify markings. Other counterfeits they won't slab.
