At the very least, the submitter should be able to get the notes for free.

They've already paid to have the book graded. Why should they have to pay again?

 

Why would the submitter need the grader's notes? They had the book in their hands before they submitted it.

 

I've received a couple books back from CGC that had defects I did not catch.

Why would they need a grade or a PQ designation? They had the book in hand before they submitted it.

 

Because that is what they bargained for. CGC's opinion, and a book encapsulated in plastic. Not a detailed explanation of the book's defects, which should have been readily observable.

No, CGC said it. So, it's okay.

It's called third party grading because someone who isn't buying or selling the comic is grading the comic.

exactly. One of the first 2 parties might want to know what their getting. Especially the buyer since they did not have the book in their hands before it was graded.

They are getting a comic encased in plastic that has a number assigned to it by CGC. And for $15 they can get the grader's notes.

From the website. What are Grader Notes?

 

CGC Grader Notes

What are CGC Grader Notes?

When CGC graders examine a comic book or magazine, they often enter comments about the collectible's condition. These "Grader Notes" describe problems, indicate the condition of the interior pages, and help explain why a collectible received the grade it did. After the first grader enters notes and their grade, the next grader can review those notes and can make any additional notes. For comics with the purple CGC Restored Grade label, Restoration Notes are given that describe the location and type of restoration. These notes are a valuable part of the grading process, and CGC now allows Grader Notes to be obtained online.

 

Sample Grader Notes

Some commonly used CGC Grader Notes include:

Right Center Front Cover Lite Fingerprints

Top Spine Water Damage

Left Center Back Cover Moderate Erasure Mark

Spine Small Stress Lines

Staple Rusted w/Rust Stained Interior

Interior Heavy Tanning

Bottom Right Front Cover Large Crease

Top Right Front Cover Restoration Color Touch

Left Center Back Cover Restoration Tear Seal

Grader Notes Fee

CGC Grader Notes are available for purchase online at CGCcomics.com. The fee for CGC Grader Notes varies based on the tier the comic book or magazine was submitted under.

 

 

Introductory Fees for CGC Grader Notes:

Comics Submitted Under (Tier) Fee

Economy, Value and Modern $5

Standard and Express $15

Walkthrough $30

How do I get CGC Grader Notes?

When you enter a certification number for a CGC-graded collectible in the free Verify CGC Certification tool, you will see if it has any Grader Notes. To unlock the Grader Notes, click the "Get Notes" button and fill in the required fields. CGC Dealers can expedite the process by logging in to have Grader Notes billed with their monthly statement.

 

CGC Grader Notes are sent to the email provided within one business day. If the Grader Notes purchase page says that delivery will be INSTANT, the Grader Notes will appear immediately and also sent by email.

Wow! I created a thread with legs. I did a quick search on this topic before I started it so as to not get any Titanic sinking pics.

 

I would have paid for this info but $5 max. Book in question is a 2k comic.

 

I wonder if submitters can get free info?
