lostboys Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Sounds silly right? Well, a lot can happen in a years time. I feel like there should be a section on the submission forms where you assign godparents for your comics in case you die. What would happen to my slabs should I expire mid grading?

In all seriousness, I wouldn't imagine most people would even have something set up to notify CGC upon their death. And, at least currently, their capacity to cancel orders is minimal anyway. The overwhelmingly likely outcome is that, eventually, the graded books will be sent to the deceased collector's address, just as if they were still alive. I suppose if you have particularly valuable stuff in queue, it's not a terrible idea to keep a note of that with your collection, so that -- if it becomes necessary -- whoever ends up taking stock will be aware that there are still inbound assets.

They will get shipped back to your address and your heirs can squabble over them like everything else. goldust40, lizards2, chrisco37 and 9 others 3 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, yes but maybe...no? Since CGC does not charge your credit card right away...lets say I die and my credit cards are shut down before CGC gets around to charging for the services. In this situation there will be no one for CGC to contact and no credit card to charge so the books will never be shipped out. Does CGC have employee raffles for these books?

They could file a claim for payment in your estate. But in all seriousness, this is going to happen at some point if it already hasn't. alexgross.com 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it none of your heirs are into comic books? Put Heritage Auctions as the secondary receiver, they can go immediately to auction on your behalf.

kav Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 How about this for an idea-CGC gets your books, doesnt charge ya till theyre done, then notifies ya theyre done, THEN you pay 'em. BigLeagueCHEW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul © ® ⚽️💙™ Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 You are awarded all BLODS if you expire while waiting for grading. All books are given a custom black label which has an artistic motif. There is a choice of The Addams Family or The Munsters, and all books are awarded a Gem Mint 10.0 as a unique 'gift grade'. Unfortunately this will matter little to you, as you have taken the easy way out. lizards2 and kav 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I’ll will them to my wife, who will then sell them for massively inflated prices in order to pay for my cremation. Then I want her to submit my ashes for grading… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastriver400 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Kidding aside, it would be good practice to notify someone in your family of what to do with your collection should something happen to you. Something as simple as “bring my collection to XYZ auction house” could keep your heirs from getting completely ripped off.
