1 yearJesse_O (24895): ASP rule changes from 2018. CBCS is announcing some changes to our Authentic Signature Program. CBCS is dedicated to keeping the integrity of the ASP at the highest level, and over the last 12 months, it has become evident that change was needed. We did not make these changes sitting in a boardroom, we actively solicited and received feedback from both our customers, creators and Authorized Witnesses. The overwhelming area people thought we...

CBCS Grading policy for "Blue with notes" books

Schumy2

9

2 monthsHulkSmash (3704): you could always use the verification screen to see if the sig may or may not pass. in my opinion; the book itself with or without the Stan Lee sig outweighs a bit of glue regardless of conserved, restored, or any other Designation. I have no issues with Conservation on pre bronze books. They are old. They have been deteriorating for decades and at some point someone wanted to keep it together after they read crap out of it.

2 monthsNuffsaid111 (8068): In the very very early Ditko days, and in speaking with insiders in the industry, I don't think he was as opposed to signing books as later. I'm talking really early days. But later on, from what I understand, not a chance. So I get quite leary when I see something signed on a comic manufactured after the early - mid 70's.

Granted no chump change (better buy GME) as I am currently residing outside the US. The services add cost and nerves - currently an ASM1 in routing (bless insurance). On the other side I purchased the book for ‚chump change‚ just looking at today‘s value.

5 monthsGAC (30010): @Scifinator @lawguy1977 are correct...send the books back still encapsulated. You'll pay for pressing and grading only. There are no longer Red labels, you will receive a Yellow label. TATs are long...pressing I believe is around 10 weeks and grading is 6-8 weeks.

8 monthsHarrisonMade (114): @Studley_Dudley I agree with you about my book. A LOT is going on there. The original plan was to use a different book that was a blank that I had paid to have a commission done on. Sadly however, the artist decided to not work on it until the middle of the con instead of having it ready to pick up at the beginning of the con. So I made a plan b, still happy with the book and it will never leave my personal collection.

waynemel

9

9 monthsEbayMafia (15550): @waynemel Maybe you are talking about two different books, but I can't imagine using Grade Screen in combination with Signature Verification. If the signature verifies, get it slabbed. If it does not verify, don't get it slabbed. I can't think of any other choice that would make sense.

How do you submit original art?

TheBatPastor

8

10 monthsdielinfinite (18840): @TheBatPastor The only thing, and this is covered in the link, is that when you select the Slab-Only tier and add the VSP signature it won’t adjust the price automatically so the form will read $20 for slab-only + $25 for the verified signature but it should be adjusted by the staff when they receive the books

Submission Type Question(s)

Nuffsaid111

15

11 monthsEbayMafia (15550): I have a hard time understanding why CBCS would offer Signature Verification and slabbing for less than the cost of Signature Verification alone. It's either a mistake or it's smartly strategic. I can't really imagine it's a mistake, because the Slab Only option alone should not cost more than the modern grading option. So I assume it must be intentional. If the reason for the low price to get the program going and get these Slab Only books...

11 monthsdielinfinite (18840): Just got these two in the mail! The turnaround time on these books was insane, in the good way! Regular modern grading, signature verification, 5-days from receipt to shipping, including a weekend. I couldn't believe it at first, I had to contact customer service to see if maybe the books had failed verification and were being shipped back ungraded. https://i.imgur.com/S5Ihtus.jpg https://i.imgur.com/liMUsqd.jpg

Signed/Numbered Comic - Verification?

Patrickjones2549

12

1 yearSiggy (15987): It was a sincere question, but I understand it comes off as shit-stirring. Looking at the labels again, I see "(#2833/10000)" is the same as CGC saying, "#2833/10000 Written On Cover", just not as specific at detaching it from the verified sig, but probably enough to CYA. I might just be picking the fly-shit from the pepper pot, but it really doesn't seem "out there" to picture some comic-book-fan-posing...

3 yearsCopperAgeKids (3715): There is no reason go use any companies other than CBCS and CGC; all the others are not reputable. As far as subbing books to CBCS, or CGC, for that matter, the most cost effective way to do so is to sub the books through an Australian CBCS Dealer. Shipping is cheaper, and you get their dealer discount.

4 yearsDrogio (6681): I would think that asp books have slightly more value in that the witness reduces the risk of an unauthentic signature to essentially zero. While vsp carries slightly more risk. as no account of when or where the book was signed is provided....and coa's, which cannot be slabbed with the book, cannot necessarily be tied back to the actual book... Just my opinion.
