You need a history lesson.

The "NOD" failed because members lied about pressing.

All books that are not original owner by you are likely pressed and you have no way to determine otherwise.

Books packed tightly in a box are 'pressed' and there is no way to determine by what method the pressing took place or so CGC tells us...

 

Huh?

Without dragging this too deep into old arguments

Let me summarize

The question was asked:Why are pressed books not noted on label or graders notes?

A: Because there is no way to distinguish between a ‘pressed’ book and a book that was packed tightly in a box and was pressed naturally from storage

This answer has been disputed and I take no position on this answer one way or the other.

But it is the stock answer for why pressing is not on the label or in graders notes

So, then, who here has never packed their books tightly in a box?

Not only another pressing thread, but with a dash of self-congratulation. Cool.

Actually, it’s the opposite of a pressing thread. :makepoint:
 

If you press, no need to put your hand up....or even post at all.:idea:

What’s your problem with this thread?  It’s ok to have hundreds of threads cheerleading the financial windfalls of pressing, but a thread that celebrates those that leave money on the table by choosing not to press their books bothers you?

 

As greggy pointed out, it’s a club for fools.   Be happy you’re not a member.
