I haven't been a member of the Collector's Society for very long but I have quite the knack for picking out a 9.8. Every comic I have submitted has come back a 9.8(except for 1 9.4 which I knew was a 9.4) until today. What's worse is that when I called CGC to ask for the graders notes they say, "We don't normally keep the notes on 9.6's or above" and then to totally destroy my ego I'm told that the pregrader gave it a 9.8 but the other two gave it a 9.6. I'm tempted to get rid of it just because it's an eyesore with so many 9.8's around it. What should I do to recover after such a disastrous occasion?? confused.gif

I'm assuming that this is all very tongue-in-cheek? confused-smiley-013.gif

Since you saw the book when it was raw. What was the defect??

 

I checked it and double checked it and then I checked it some more. There was nothing that would warrant a 9.6. I would have just let it go but then to find out the pregrader gave it a 9.8... Christo_pull_hair.gif

I know it's a little early to be speculating on this issue but since notta one has been sumitted I figured I would get it slabbed and then flip it when the hype increases...
