D2 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I just received my first CGC Submission and I wanted to start out with this topic as a very sincere and appreciative Thank You to the CGC team. Job Done. My 1st submission had a few blips and scrapes along the way, but at the end of my entire experience: Customer service was very quick and helpful to fix any issues I had, mitigating these issues that happened CGC was easy to get in touch with, and I did not feel as though I was being avoided or neglected The grading process was slow at first, but informative, and accurately timed. It ended quickly and shipping was ultra fast. CGC grades were fair and accurate. I can't say that I agree with every grade, but my estimates were extremely close, and in 1 instance it game in higher than I expected. All in all, it ended on a great note. My submission wasn't huge, but they were books I consider to be some modern grail books. Anyway, Thank you CGC It would be nice to hear how others' 1st experiences have gone, as I know a bad 1st impression is hard to shake.

oakman29 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Well that's great and all , but let's see some pics of your books! My first and only submission was at a con in Long Beach, and personally I was a bit surprised by the findings. I had a Werewolf b6 Night 32 that I thought would get a 9.0 and it got a 9.4. Another one was an Amazing Spider-Man 238 that I thought was a perfect candidate for a 9.6, and it got an 8.5 Wha! Otherwise I would hate to mail my books to CGC for fear that they would get lost in the mail, so I don't submit. D2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D2 Posted October 21, 2018 Author Share Posted October 21, 2018 I was also afraid that my guesses would be way off, as you never know! I think I'm a good grader until you get a professional to look them over. To be fair too, all my books were modern, so I feel like they are obviously much easier to guess and grade myself. I would struggle with older books. Here are the 4 main books A few copies of the detective 880 virgin black foil as well ADAMANTIUM and ygogolak 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd by lying if I said I didn't put way too much thought into it and bought the only acrylic paint pens I could trust. A lot of people don't seem to like or trust them, but I took a chance. It was the green for 880 that got it all started. ygogolak 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
