The op has a day job and is maybe finishing up their usual 48 hour shift.

There are a LOT of mischief makers out there

What I truly miss is the board detectives we used to have. They had the mettle and heart to suss out such things. 

I'd take up the mantle, but lets face it, this is my skill set

 

Don’t worry, op will post another “I’m done” thread in about two weeks, only this time it will be a 125 book submission that got screwed.  Still no pics though.

I submitted two books. Same issue, basically the same grade with exception of one book having a small spine break. That was it. 
 

Book 1 was 9.8 as expected.

Book 2 was 9.0 with notes stating bends to the bottom corner of the book. Was expecting 9.4/9.6. 
 

I will post scans when they arrive. 

Now I see why it got a 9.0. Nice new impact dent to the corner that was not there when I purchased the book, when I pressed it and when it was sent in.

There have to be more defects than just that one bend.  Don't there?

True, I know it is not a 9.8, but a book like this with zero other defects can't get a 9.2 or maybe a 9.4?

I’d be annoyed if I bought a CGC 9.2/9.4 and it had a 1/2” CB crease 

I think 9.0 is the right grade

@joeypost #9 is a key.  Hopefully CGC will work something out with you.

We will see. I basically can sell it slabbed for 60% of what I paid for it raw.

You shouldn't have to lose 40% from an in-house mistake.

Just checking in to see if pictures were posted.

CGC has just announced their attendance at AVN this year in Las Vegas where they will be slabbing and promotong soiled and signed Sig Series panties of any pr0n star that will buy them hot dogs for the service.  They will undoubtedly mis-grade these too but concentrate on the marvelous stains!

You mock, but there would be a market for this
