RAW2020 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I am submitting some comics and a few are still sealed in poly bags. Will they take it out a nd grade it (which I don't mind) or should I take it out before I send it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveinthecity Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 You should probably remove the bag to give an inspection of the book at the very least. The poly bag sometimes leaves a non-color-breaking seam on the book that you’d otherwise be unaware. KirbyTown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To have a poly-bagged book certified by CGC, you must either remove the book from its poly-bag or send written approval authorizing CGC to remove it. The words “Poly-bag removed” will appear in the key comments section on the CGC label. The label will not specify if any loose item was in the poly-bag with the comic. When the comic graders remove items from a poly-bagged comic, the items are returned to the submitter in a separate mylar/bag and board.

JD112868 Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 (edited) thanks all. It's interesting because a big draw of the X-Force #1 comic was the collector's card in the poly bag. Deadpool was the collector's card in the bag. I don't the comic would be worth as much without the card. Oh well. Thanks for the feedback all.
