This is my book as an example:

Sorry its so small, the Label Text reads: "Very small amount of dried glue on spine of cover. (1 piece of tape on interior cover.)"

Here are the Grader's Notes:

Grader Notes:

  • Bottom Back Cover Piece Out
  • Bottom Spine Restoration Lite Glue
  • Bottom Spine Spine Split
  • Bottom Staple Cover Detached
  • Center Spine Small Tear
  • Left Bottom Back Cover Large Crease
  • Right Bottom Front Cover Restoration Small Tear Seal
  • Right Top Front Cover Multiple Crease
  • Spine Wear

Anyone see where the "1 piece of tape on interior cover" is disclosed in the Grader's Notes?

This definitely is not good. Removing so many of the things that many of us pay for them to document and verify when grading is absolutely a horrendous idea. 

Remove siamese pages? Really. I have two books that this would be the only reason I would send them into them for grading.:facepalm:

Just another "great" idea from the CGC think tank. (Denote HUGE sarcasm here)

If they cannot keep up with their job as graders and verification they really should reconsider what the heck they are doing.. 

Just means less work for them.

They don't have to check the inside pages carefully anymore because no one will know if there's a major defect unless they crack the slab.

At least with defects listed on the label, it's all up front. 

You can just see the high fives going on at Heritage now.  

IMO, they're only grading the front and back cover now. No reason to think they even look inside anymore.

Uhh, I actually wouldn't mind if they used QR codes instead of certification numbers.  Just put the QR code on the back.

The actual barcode contains much more information than just the cert#.

I admit QR will replace barcodes like email replaced fax machines - but it's pretty much the same thing.
