| These were ALL supposed to have been cleaned and pressed My disappointment over the failure of the Kirby sig (chance I took I know) is nothing compared to how these books were returned to me. Just look at the waves on X Men and Doc Strange 2. I wish I had previous pictures from the back X Men as this book has not been touched since I purchased it brand new in the box. Should not have pressing corrected the spin roll on Doc Strange 1 or am I mistaken. NOT a happy chappie               |

| The best question was were you charged for pressing and cleaning..? I would tend to agree those books dont look pressed or cleaned ….perhaps check your billing to verify? | ||

| So the next step for me might be message steve rickets and tim bilderhause and see where we go from here...it might save you a lot of angst and anger, and get you a solution you can feel better with Steve handles the pressing, and Tim is a representative of CBCS...either one should be able to get you situatuted |

| The Doc Strange 1 does not appear to have a spine roll, just an off cut, which is very common for that book. However, the first two are terrible. Looks hardly cleaned at all, and not cold pressed after pressing, which creates waves if the heat was high enough. Blerghh. I feel your pain man. |

 I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie.

| I am really feeling for you bud. I imagine the International shipping alone was tremendous. Were there any other books in the submission, hopefully something to soften the blow?

| Thanks for all the replies guys I've PM Steve Rickets so we will see what happens @flanders I dont drink any shorts but I love Baileys in a coffee and better still as a Guinness chasher @Batman66 yes I'm really pleased that the Frank Brunner passed verification Quote: Originally Posted by EbaySeller What makes it worse is this is my first time getting any of my personal books pressed cleaned and slabbed and I took up the offer of VSP when it was on and these were the only 3 books I sent in. As a side note the waves were NOT present when I sent the books in, so something has happended |

| I'm sorry to see that. I sent two books for pressing & grading, so that I could make sure CBCS received & entered them by Jan 1 for a $25 off coupon to be used. I've used their pressing service before, and not had anything adverse happen. I hope you can get this resolved in a quick and reasonable manner. | ||

| RE: Kirby I had to send the same book in 3 times before it passed the sig verification. Cost me 10x's the books value, but it was principal seeing as how I had it signed personally. may want to try it again if the book means something to you ..or not ...just saying  |

| The dynamic forces books supposedly signed by Kirby never pass, it happens time after time. Sadly I am afraid sending it in over and over wont gain much.. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by DrWatson yeah...in week 28 now!!  none of my current order books were rush flips or anything (although as Rai and Wonder Woman come out next year they will be for sale), and ok I'm using CBCS Canada so maybe a few weeks added because of that...still...28 weeks and counting. All seems to be that pressing is the backup. I've had non press books come back right on or even under stated TAT's |

| @Watcher good for you persevering, difference being you knew that Kirby actually signed and as @Darkseid_of_town said DF always fail. I’ve tried contacting DF but no reply so now I'm leaving comments on their FaceBook page |

Ouch, that sucks. I can relate to getting your books back at a much-diminished grade than what you were expecting. Makes your heart sink.  |

| @comic_book_man Yes they are I PM Steve Ricketts and Jake in the pressing office is arranging FedEx to pick up and return all 3 comic books. Its been a bit of a palaver as they were very good to give me the CBCS account number so I could arrange collection myself, however FedEx web site also wanted user name and password before they would let me book., which naturally put the mockers on that. Another option was dropping off at the nearest FedEx site (in Cork) was a no no for me as it’s at least a 2 hour round trip from where I live in rural Ireland also involving motor way tolls. So I am waiting for postage label to be emailed to me hopefully this Monday. All a bit of a delay really as I could have posted this myself last Tuesday but we will see how it goes. |
