Nothing in this life is perfect. I've had a couple of mistakes myself, but CGC always takes care of me every time.

Instead of posting your issues(playing victim), why not give them a chance to fix it first?

So are these your books or are you just posting various mistakes by CGC from the interwebs...?  

Looks to me like it is yet another re-posting of a collection of pics gathered from other places. We see this here from time to time, and it is almost always from people with very few prior posts.

Yeah, that was sorta a rhetorical question but wanted to see what the OP had to say...

If you're looking for a company that is perfectly consistent and accurate with grading and never makes errors of any kind with regards to labeling or encapsulation that grades millions of books, you should absolutely not use CGC.  Other than that, if a person has an individual situation where CGC has made a mistake, they should definitely take it up with CGC.

Other than, feel free to go on every car rental, airline, or restaurant discussion board and collect random internet pictures where they made errors and make posts letting those companies know that they aren't perfect.  Because that seems like a thing that fun, thoughtful people do.

I've seen the Australian Harbinger 1 9.8 before.

Several with an Antipodean orientation there.

There isn't really too much here to "question"... sure there are some obvious technical errors, but minor mistakes happen everywhere.  If you see a Shadowpact 8 under a label that says Shadowpact 2, it's not too hard to figure out.  They can check the submission to see if the 8 and 2 got swapped labels or if they just mis-typed the number. 

The low grade 0.5 books probably have significant damage internally, like a missing page, coupon cut out, whatever.  Turns out, you can't always accurately grade a comic from a picture of a comic in a slab.

Taking a graded comic, cracking it out, then getting it signed and regraded can result in lower grades.  Sometimes creators are rough on books.  There are videos of Todd McFarlane waving books around during his signing, but lots of people still got 9.8s back from his signing.  Sorry?

So, what are your "questions?"

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Absolutely.

And, it only works if you’re in the U.K.

I realised that after posting.
