3 monthsflanders (29550): 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...

But it’s a city of air pockets you say. A bubble of air has to reach equilibrium with the surrounding pressure to keep it from rising to the surface. Eventually the bubble will be absorbed by the body water at a rate dependent on...

Is There an Alternative to Collectibles Insurance Services?

DrWatson

3 daysGAC (80283): Co-insurance is not a "gotcha" clause. It's an important part of an insurance policy that protects the insurer from litigation and that they receive the full premium for the risk they're insuring, it also ensures the insured gets a full payout in the event of a claim. Insurance is 100% data driven...the values have to be correct.

With me not knowing that Tom Taylor was assigned to the comic book series. Which, for me, feels like a literary crime. Simply because I always feel like he cares enough about the characters to do stories like this one. All I can say is that while I did figure out who the culprit was, I was too entertained to delve deeper into the whole...
