1 monthflanders (29165): I have a suggestion that I hope CBCS will consider. Can you ban both the posting of any photos in collection threads as well as sales threads of any CGC slabs numbered 43 and above including slabs with a grade date after January 2023? I think CGC from at the very least 2023 on, maybe even earlier, has shown that they have no respect for the hobby and there isn't any discernible difference from an ethics standpoint, between CGC and PGX.

8 yearsJesse_O (39345): What does a checkmark (asterisk online) by the grade mean? In rare cases, a comic book will look much better than the given grade. In these rare cases, a Check Mark will be placed on the label by the numerical grade. The best way to understand why a specific comic book received a Check Mark designation is to refer to the graders' notes. Example: a comic is graded 8.0. However, the covers are such that it looks like a 8.5 or a 9.0. CBCS...

If you’re looking for the FIRST FIRST Dragon Ball… chapter 1 was actually printed in Weekly Shonen Jump #51 in 1984 (pictured in my attachment). The image you’ve provided is the tankobon that prints the first few chapters, after their release in Weekly Shonen Jump. It’s all about what you would like to collect.
