Not going to go to one side of the convention center to grab a witness for every single signature at different times. CBCS is in an area (spot 706) that doesn't make sense to be in the convention center, might be out of their hands but CGC are in two prime locations (spots 901 and 4315).

2 yearsJesse_O (10023): 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...
