Here's another one: on the contrary, 9.6 is the one grade that should always have notes. (And, I actually have gotten a fair amount of notes on 9.6s.) For one thing, 9.6 to 9.8 is usually, if not always, the highest dollar value jump. Informationally, I don't care if a 9.2 or 9.4 has no notes--I should have been aware of the defects anyway. But there are actually a lot of times where a 9.6 looks same (or better) than a 9.8, and it'd be really nice to see what, in CGC's opinion, prevented that book from being a 9.8. This 100%, everyone should re-read it. theCapraAegagrus and Sefageus Magnipab 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inhuman Fiend Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 It's interesting to see notes on everything, but I'm sure the main reason they don't is simply lack of time (given the never-ending avalanche of books they receive daily). I've been submitting for almost 18 years and the percentage of books that have notes has declined dramatically in recent years. JJ-4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a waste of time to include notes for most books in the 9.4+ range. accountability is never a waste of time. theCapraAegagrus, Odda, Lirion and 3 others 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see CGC changing their procedures for that though, unfortunately. Eh, it’s the same folks that will throw the “CGC loves Werewolf by Night 32 and the graders give it a grade bump” accusation. Blows with the fair winds, or whatever koolaid they are drinking that day. Again, I have no problem with the grade the book received especially since the book spent the last 30ish years. theCapraAegagrus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this a cliff hanger??? I can't stand the suspense! WHERE did the book spend the last 30-ish years? Or is it HOW did the book spend the last 30-ish years? Let's have some guesses, suggestions, or speculation from the peanut gallery. JJ-4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No cliffhanger here. In a box in storage while I was away in the military. Surprised the folks didn’t throw it out with the trash. Got lucky.

Artboy99 Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 I just got back a Teen Titans #2 that I was expecting to see a 9.2-9.4 grade and it is graded an 8.0. Would love to read the notes on that one. djzombi and Odda 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrippyKidd Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 9.6 is always pretty obvious and the reason why they don't. I got two unread books cleaned and pressed and looked 9.8 but both had one flaw that made them a 9.6. I would have liked notes to confirm but they do say if a flaw stands out it's a mark. It will jump out. A 9.4 is always to me 2 flaws. The Your Transformer looking at it the first thing that stood out was the color rub on top right corner. It's real obvious and my eye keeps catching it. The rest of the book is solid. So 9.6 1 flaw white pages. Clean book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
