3 dayswmonkeyboy (1): Heard y'all are no longer taking any new orders after the 17th of April. But when I went to make an appointment to drop off it said no appointments from 21 days. So it goes past the April 17th date. What is that about? Don't want to spend money if my comics won't be graded.

9 yearsJesse_O (39356): 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....

5 daysdrchaos (31703): So if you start doing the paperwork for a submission that needs pressing and they pull the plug on the service before you csn finish the paperwork it would seem that you only wasted your time. If the deadline was in July instead of April perhaps we could get the books pressed before submitting them. Really not the answer most of us were hoping for.
