Tell The Overstreet Comic Book Grading Guide How To Define "Restoration"

[gpanalysis]

Joking aside, without having some concrete industry "10 commandments" (so to speak) on what restoration is and isn't, and what conservation constitutes, etc, raw or CGC, and that everyone abides by and accepts, then this will always come up as an issue.

 

Hey!!! I'm the one who's having a beer right now, not you!

 

 

Here's the thing: Aren't they right now asking for our input on what is/isn't restoration???

 

We are at a turning point, in my opinion. We have had XXX number of "Pressing Treads" and whatever else. Speak up now!

 

I agree with you - but maybe as it's so late (well, early in the wee hours of the morning), I think those that will be speaking up are asleep

True, but I have the luxury of living on the west coast.....it's a little ealier........and my breteron will rise up!

 

Never in the field of human conflict/collecting, have so many be so thankful for the efforts of so few. We must fight them on the beaches, we must fight them in the fields......we shall never surrender.

 

 

 

 

Joking aside: If I were one who chased the ultra-high grade books.....I would be shirt-kicking, ultra-extreme pizzed off at the mearest mention of accepting presssed books as a "don't ask-don't tell" or in today's market : "It's not considered restoration, so I don't feel I should have to mention it" attitude.

 

The one's who support this view are the ones (and I ain't mentioing a single name/company here) who are pursuing this for purely monetary purposes. If pressing didn't mean more money, nobody would bother with it. And in my oppinion, the recent change in definiton was to give a loop-hole for pressing, that enough marketing/preassure from the pro-pressing BSD's out there put....that why it was (IMHO) changed in the definiton. The goal was to increase the over-all spending & manipulate the market.

 

And just lie Forrest Gump: That's all I have to say about that.
