I’m guessing the next announcement will be some kind of ‘reholder special’ for those that want to update their current slabs with the QR code.   
 

 

Maybe a free ( ) sticker?

Good move by CGC, long overdue, but welcome. 

[Gaard]

I was told prominent members of the community asked for this. Will those members please step forward and take a bow?

[Lord Gemini]

Yes, I really like this idea.

[Ares]

Looked up 10 slabs.

9 said graders notes unavailable

Across a range of  grades

@CGC Mike it seems that if there are no notes you only see this message. 

This is required.This is required.

 

Is this the expected UX? I entered in a few of my older books that I never checked on notes before.

Could I get the cert numbers for these books?

LOVE this service.  Got locked out quickly for a bit, but meh, now I've seen the lookup limits and it's fine.

Let us eat cake!!!!

 

Good news!

This was a great feature that CBCS had from their launch, and glad to see this finally make the migration to CGC. It won’t help on the millions of previously graded slabs, but you have to start somewhere. A positive move.

Good point.

Careful now, wouldn't want to get caught "promoting competitors"

here;s a suggestion, CGC graders should provide notes on anything less than a 9.8. I need to understand why they gave a book a 9.6 vs 9.8. This should be documented and frankly required by their manager/dept. Not providing facts for the grades given, allows their staff to continually be inconsistent (no accountability) and allows for the consumer to lose faith in the existing process.

seriously, it's better than the alternative

Went though my collection

27 CGC books (for now)

22 graders note unavailable

Limited search for grading notes.  Was at a con and after looking up 7 grading notes message stating to protect their data base I was locked out.  Logged in using my PAID password and still locked out.  Has anyone else been limited when looking up grading notes?  Thanks.

[Gaard]

Reading both previous posts ... must be that if notes are unavailable, the search doesn't count towards the limit?
