While the 'new' label isn't perfect, companies rebrand themselves all the time. I'm just excited that my books have done to QC and hopefully will slide through the rest of the process easily. I only have seven books currently in the system, so if CBCS comes out with something better I can always send them in for reholding.  |

| I was told by Customer service that the New, new labels will begin once the supply of new labels runs out. The only thing not working for me with that prototype is the way the white fades to blue and back. Looks like a 70's tydied T-shirt | ||

It's not the worst thing in the world but I do wish it looked better. I was even fine with the label before this one.

Quote:Originally Posted by Evangelon Well if this is the case then they need to make an official statement soon and let us know what's going on, how large the supply is and when they estimate it running out. There's quite a few of us who are holding back submissions because of the FrankenRivet. |

| On a positive note CBCS will have on-site grading at the Tampa Bay Comic Con. Nevermind those books that have been sitting around a couple months longer than advertised. At least it'll help get rid of those horrid labels. | ||

| I do not know a single person who likes the new labels. I'm not a fan of the rivets or the faded color but I especially can't stand the font for the grade. The number looks terrible. Please revamp these labels before my 12 books are encapsulated! | ||

| Please, guys, hurry up and upgrade the label. I have 18 of my best books with you right now (that I sent before the spontaneous swtich) and I really do not want the tacky rivet version atop them. | ||

| I liked the old label. It was distinctly different and you could spot a CBCS slab from across the con floor. Can it be revisited? I know it's impossible to please everyone. I liked the old label, however I felt it was seemed a little faded. Keep the same color schemes, just make it a little deeper in color tone. Also the font of the grade could've used a change. And I do like the new holofoil shield (but without the rivets and brushed metal look). So if they went back to the old label, with deeper color tone, font change on the grade, and added the new holofoil shield. I think that would be perfect. Just my opinion. I do believe in this company. I know it is the best protection for books with true archival quality. CBCS do have the collector's best interest at heart regarding comic book protection, indefinitely. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Kinzebac Idk still getting the silent treatment via customer service. When Zach asked me to wait back in july, when this whole thing started, I was thinking the week after sdcc I would hear/see something. A few weeks later we got nothing and I cant even get him to respond via email. It seems like there might be some activity on their fb page but Im not sure since I dont use fb. An offical statement would be nice. |

| I'm sorry, but the new label design is a total mess. The font, layout, and color seem very juvenile-crayolaish of a design. Rivets, really? C'mon guys! The old label is much cleaner, brighter and overall looks a lot more professional. Please leave it alone. | ||

| Ok here's a new question. I can understand them wanting to blow through their label stock. But why are they still using the fonts and negative space layout? All of that is printed on the fly. Why not just apply the font and layout changes from the SDCC prototype to the remaining rivet stock??? | ||

| Ok, got my books back with the new label. I have to admit, the rivets, don't bother me. What actually hurts to look at is the print, which is really small and the font for the grade. "9" look really weird with it. | ||
