Are they scamming or just not aware of the rules and their qualification )or in these cases disqualification)? Agree though....your comics, your responsibility to ensure they are handled properly.

1 yearJesse_O (6139): 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...

It is pointless to contact CBCS customer service with "What my Status" #1 They most likely don't know and will give you the basic... "I'll check on it" #2 It only ties up the already short handed department people who's time could be much better spent doing something much more productive. #3 Best advice?
