Mislabeled slabs 0

Could be a job opportunity in QC within the near future. If they start sending out slabs with no comics in them then you know them smoke breaks are more than cigs.

You joke, but assuming someone took a job encapsulating comics and really, really hated that job... they would need to get fired to file for unemployment benefits. Quitting won't work.

The current QC guy/gal would be moved to latrine duty. Since they did such a crappy job.

We don't know that they weren't already demoted to comics after labeling NGC gold half-dollars as Lincoln pennies.

That's almost as bad as saying "Valiant Comics began publishing Superman in 1953, after Spiderman was a huge hit for Image during WWII."

That #252 is awesome, though

How do you even trust the grade when they get it that wrong?

you understand that grading and putting the right label in the right case are two totally different skill sets?

This was a fun recent one, currently being fixed by CGC as we speak:

A triple whammy!

 

These must be the "messed up" SS label variants!

What was book with the serial number of 1600101022 ?

This type of error is easy to spot, but what if multiple copies of the same issue were slabbed?  How would you know if each grade was assigned to the proper book?

Thanks for jogging my memory. I posted in that thread.

Come to think of it, there were some questionable labels in the March Madness grading tournament...

 

Maybe I don't suck at grading, after all.  It's the labels...

Had it happen to me. They were great about it. Made it right and then some.

Why do you want them to fix these?

Sell them for 10x value, man! One of a kind! Batman in an ASM slab! Not tampered with!

True dat. 1 guy in a basement or possibly a garage does it all.
