30 minutesCaffeine_Kid (395): Got my invoice today for pressing and shipping costs. I had press screening for the 8 books, even though I figured at least 2 or 3 (if not 4) would be 9.8 already. I even thought, perhaps naively, I possibly had a 9.9 in there. I am surprised that I was charged for pressing on all 8 books. Seems somewhat suspicious. Anyone here pay for press screening and not pay for pressing?

5 yearsJesse_O (31783): 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...
