I occasionally like to remind myself that there was once a time when collecting unslabbed, unpressed, unrestored, unqualified, unsigned books was a thing...

I took a long break from slabs, and was just collecting nice OO upgrades of my childhood books when I’d come across them.    Last year I started buying slabbed books again.  Most were disappointing, and those that weren’t didn’t appeal to me through the slab.  
 

I guess the novelty of encapsulation has finally worn off.

Just got back an economy order.

ALL TWENTY FIVE LOOK LIKE THIS.

The scratches are on the inner well.

If any QC error is going to occur, this is the coolest.  Nice little keepsake of this unprecedented time of QC fail....

Inspected by #5 or #7 ?

Easy mistake to make right? LOL. Like I've said before, they need to clean house. No excuse for clown show garbage like that. It's the upside down cake rare variant.

Nothing like chunks of plastic in the case. 

@CGC Mike at what point does cgc get their spoon together. If I sell these I'm a d noozle... If I get them reholder Ed I miss 3 or 4 shows. Gotta be some accountability at some point.

I am very sorry this has happened to you.  I am going to put together another e-mail for the quality control team, and make arrangements to make the trip and spend another day at CGC to try and improve QC issues.

I applaud your efforts in this Mike. But at this point your visits are the equivalent of putting a bandaid on a shotgun wound. CGC really needs to step up and get someone who understands not only QC, but QC in relation to the comic industry. 
I am hesitant to use the word laughable, but I think the conversation is only one more upside down book away from that.

This screenshot (of this thread) is from January, 2021.

So, either CGC has been looking to prevent these shards for at least 2+ years or they simply said "screw it, we choose not to fix this".

The first possibility shows how inept this company is. The second possibility shows how they are not only without integrity, but it also shows how they lie to it's customers (they've repeatedly said how they are trying to fix this issue).

 

From the shown post by TTT, " I decided to keep it as is in order to not have to send it in for reholder...". IMO, this is exactly what CGC was/is hoping people decide to do.
