1337pino Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 I was super excited to try out the new slabbing service and sent in a couple of Star Wars VHS copies. Neither are original release issues, so they aren't the most valuable anyways (and the "A New Hope" wasn't in the best condition anyways). I just love Star Wars and wanted to see what the slabs and slabbing process was like. So... The slabs feel really good! And I really like the label information. It lists the type of seal and stamps, etc. My only nitpick is that I wished the VHS was more snug inside the case. It still has some wiggle room, so if someone were to shake the case around a lot, I could imagine the cardboard case inside getting damaged.

It still has some wiggle room, but I don't see any Newton rings so that is a success for Cgc. Vhs-Interceptor , Larryw7 and 1337pino 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cover art on Nightmare on Elm Street looks so good on a VHS case! So were those the grades you expected? I went into this completely blind to how they'll grade VHS. I'm only experienced with CGC grading my comics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent them in the day after they started to grade the VHS tapes so they likely got alot busier maybe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
