THE_BEYONDER Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I believe the CGC default is to give it a green qualified label, and one would have to request a grade hit & blue. The Lions Den 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thisisrequired Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I would call and make arrangements and put note with book. I think non low grades get green label but I would try to make sure someone doesn't mess up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bighairjer Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 I’ve seen blue labels 1.0 -3.0 with no mvs. I am genuinely curious why you would choose a green label? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I think green labels have no place in the hobby as it just a fabricated number. Grade the book as it sits period, but I’m old school. But I see the advantage if the green labels do bet better in the market. Edited November 12, 2022 by bighairjer djzombi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a thought-out grading process just like the other labels. The Sig Series yellow labels are Qualified also, I suppose you're against them too? You have your opinion and I absolutely respect that.

So my understanding of a qualified grade is predicated on an “if not for x defect” it would grade as X. But the defect clearly exists and essentially gets ignored. So in my opinion, the qualified grade is fabricated. Yes, it is fact that CGC utilizes qualified grades so that ship is failed. You can argue your points all day long and as I said I respect your opinion, it’s okay for folks to not agree.

MAR1979 Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 A 9.8 is nothing more than a qualified 10.0 djzombi, Yorick, bighairjer and 1 other 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zookeeper615 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 I tried that in the past, put like notes in 3 places for an unwitnessed signature to be given the blue label instead of the green, of course somehow they missed or ignored all 3 notes and sent it as green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
