Popular Post spidermanbeyond Posted October 17 Popular Post Share Posted October 17 @CGC Mike There are some serious red flags with this submission. Another insider job giving out 9.9's? How many of us have submitted thousands of books and never get even one 9.9? This guy gets 12 in one submission? Someone higher up needs to look into this and this submission.

BanjerD Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 (edited) yeah, that does seem quite sketchy. That many 9.9s in one submission! 21 books submitted, with twelve 9.9s Edited October 17 by BanjerD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator CGC Mike Posted October 17 Administrator Share Posted October 17 I will pass this along, and mention that there is a census error with 2 books. Brandon Shepherd and TheGeneral 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanJD Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 (edited) What’s correct, the census or the label? Are those few actually graded 9.8s but accidentally have 9.9 labels which are now being sold as 9.9s at huge premiums? I would not want to be the buyer of those.

spidermanbeyond Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 (edited) Always check the label # to make sure the # and actual book and grade are the same/match and are correct, especially on expensive books.

BEAUMONTS Posted Thursday at 02:47 AM Share Posted Thursday at 02:47 AM (edited) CGC can expect a gold rush of resub's for there glorious new 9.9 bonanza. The more the merrier the bigger the harrier. Whomever subbed these are super "lucky". Those 9.9's are so rare. what a joke. Seems to be a little bit more then a census error.

BEAUMONTS Posted Thursday at 02:53 AM Share Posted Thursday at 02:53 AM (edited) What would be interesting is who the lucky person was with this sub and ...... This must be a new indoor worlds record for 9.9's.. the question is can it be topped and how quickly and will it now bring in the new era of multiple 10's in submissions. Tune in and see CGC is really going for it. Edited Thursday at 02:56 AM by BEAUMONTS comic_memories, djzombi and crazyhips 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 0r0d Posted Thursday at 04:28 AM Author Popular Post Share Posted Thursday at 04:28 AM I would not be surprised if the news of just this one submission single-handedly tanks the value of 9.9's from now on. Used to be that 9.9's were extremely rare, and prices reflected that. But now they're starting to become a dime a dozen.

Can't speak exactly for these, but I once saw a non-Wizard World CGC 9.5 labeled book that the census listed as 9.6. The correct grade based on CGC correspondence was the census grade. So probably the census. DanJD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was honestly kind of hoping I would get lucky with a 9.9 of my Saga #1 that I sent in, because you know you're always hoping, especially when it seems possible. It needed a press and is wishful thinking, but now my gut is befuddled if "it happened" do I get happy or no .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
