Has the David Mack signing happened yet? My 2 books have been 'Received at CCS' since 9/28  : / 

Looks like 11/20 was the date... roughly

Saw this on reddit from twitter. Dated 11/21.

Back in november.. around the 8th. They posted some videos on facebook with him signing stuff and discussing his earlier style vs today.

They seem to be going GEI right now

Well.... my 2nd campbell submission of 2 books went into QC today.

Spawn 300 and spawn 301 both virgin campbell covers. Both were 9.8, so lets see. 300 had bad newton rings, so hope that gets fixed too

The 8 marvel were all custom labels, so still GEI.

 

Here is the before shots:

And both dropped to 9.6

Im thinking CGC is being harder on grading. Might be done submitting books to sign and regrade

Ugh that is the worst. 

I recently submitted 2 minty fresh SS books that also came back 9.6s, zero grader notes, and looking at them in-hand, nothing blatantly obvious that would have kept them from 9.8s.

My X-Men #1 Lee Williams signing just went GEI.

Was a Claremont signed 9.8.... brtcha it doesnt stay 9.8 at this rate.

Oh and pressing doesnt help. I had my superman #75 that went 9.6 pressed to get rid of the 1 flaw thr grader noted (which wasnt enough to cause a 9.6) and it came back with a few spine stress marks that werent there before.

Betting no notes either, but till i get the serial numbers i cant be sure.

 

On the plus side... maybe the newton ringing will be gone on that 300!

If it makes you feel better mine Campbell went from a 9.8 to a 9.6 too. I feel like they are being especially harsh on modern but somehow my 1985 -1st silver sable retained its 9.8 grade. I would think most moderns should always be 9.8…unless they are being more scrutinized.

Yeah i think they are and they arent telling people that. Support keeps saying crack open can cause issues... but my reholders never have issue keeping same grades.

Guy also tried to say artist and writer handling the books can cause issues... but ive seen their videos. Thry slide the copy to them and the writer/artist touches the yellow window bag in the space with no book and signs.

Only the pen touches the book in most cases.

 

This comes down to either they are getting super lax in their process causing damage... or they are grading much tougher than before.

Let us know.

For the record I dont press modern or bronze 9.8s I submit. I feel cgc handles them well enough and have only had one with obvious issues.

I agree they take care of them and their process keeps getting more refined which should in theory lessen the risk of damage. The rest come back 9.8 or 9.6. The 9.6 ones makes me think its an arbitrary, “well this gets a 9.6 because we cant have too many 9.8s” kind of thing.
