| This forum has gone from Brand/Logo -> Slabs -> Talking Smack to each other? I hope we can get back to the main topic again and see what is going to come from CBCS about their new logo and labels? | ||

| @svgcomics181 I agree, I am surprised that PGX hasn't jumped on the bandwagon and make something that everyone would like! Problem is, their rep isn't that great as far as the grading goes (at least from what I've read)? Also, I'm unfamiliar with the quality of their slabs? Really though, my biggest concern is preserving the quality of my books. The label doesn't bother me too much, and I don't see that affecting the value of the books down the road either. I'll take quality any day over aesthetics! If and when the new label/logo comes out, there is the option of reslabbing...but that comes at a cost not only for the slab but the grade as well. So if you are definitely not a fan of the logo/label then hold out. The thing you have to consider is, how fast would this turn around take (weeks, months, years)? Not sure how many people will have the patience waiting on that. Food for thought. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Oxbladder I wouldn't know where to begin on a price. Due to the level of discussion about them, it is quite apparent they hold way more value than the books. I mean can't be too many labels out there that would read for example "Action Comics #1" you know what I mean. Lol |

| When you are sealing something in a plastic case where the only things you can see are the front cover, the back cover , and the label, then yes, the design and aesthetics of the label carry a lot of weight. Otherwise, why wouldn't I just leave the book in a Mylar? | ||

| @DrWatson true, I guess right now we are just sitting at a dilemma. CGC (decent label, poor cases) or CBCS (unfavored label, amazing cases). CBCS!!! Please provide us an update with your business strategy so we don't have to complain anymore! |

| I see there's more problems with the company's lack of robust board software and lack of a census as more pressing issues. Yeah, the label looks like it can be improved. And maybe their problem is actually listening to customers who don't know what makes a good company brand. I like looking up books, and I like my inventory being in a set not only to show off but to help me keep me straight. In my opinion, get CORE functionality competition has, and do it better. Then come back and solve this label problem once and for all. The company label looks too big on the label, and the fonts size and placement is a little off. But please, don't listen to me because I'm not a trained graphics art professional. |

| It's been about 45 days since the new design was rolled out. Has CBCS given an official response yet? | ||

| There was one response that basically just said "we hear you, we are going to talk about it internally and we'll let you know." right before SDCC. Then at SDCC they slipped out a photo (via a board member) of a prototype newer new label. And there hasn't been any peep since. | ||

Peep.  We're working on it. Hopefully it won't be much longer. Expect to hear something in the coming weeks. |
