Have I told you about the time I dropped off 3,000 comics at SDCC? Scifinator private msg quote post Address this user
Maybe it has something to do with the former cgc grader that put up several dozen 9.8 SS Spawn 1, Spider-Man 1 and Spawn 300’s on facebook.

@BrashSmurf yes, a total of three dozen of those three comics are listed in several facebook forums. Seller is listed as rob pillsbury. It has lit some fires in fb forums.

I'm inclined to say CGC has had issues much longer than a few days.

I heard he was a former grader...but I’m hearing that from the same Facebook page most of you probably are getting the info from.

Did anyone else get the $5 coupon promo ($50 or more purchase) from eBay if you text BINGO to 70799? I’m leery of texting to strange numbers.

That and i’m also pissed I just bought something for $50 late last night...and

I sat there contemplating “if I wait a few more hours there might be an eBay bucks promo...but it might sell at this price like the last one did very quickly....and then I won’t see another at this price again!....”

Sorry, I'm not following....what's the implication of this? Were they his books to sell? Are CGC graders not allowed to sell?

Ive seen the thread.

Seems like this 'former employee' had posted a ton of yellow label Spawn 1s ALL 9.8s along with more books, I cant recall that were also yellow and 9.8s.

It seemed legit until some one pointed out that he was a former grader for CGC. So it seemed shady, like he literally did all the grading and witnessing himself.

After it was pointed out he was a CGC employee, he changed it to former, then made his profile private and removed the listings all together.

@GAC correct, CGC emoloyees are not supposed to transact hence the uproar. Then as @infinityG pointed out he changed his profile to “former” employee and then private. While facebook can handle the traffic, i wonder if the exposure crashed the cgc forum. While the picture of three dozen gold label 9.8 Spiderman 1, Spawn 1, & Spawn 300 homage cover is impressive, it obviously raised questions.

But, cgc forum crash could just be coincidental timing.

I kinda did it. I did the initial text, but then it asked for your zipcode to spam you in the future. In theory you can opt out immediately after cashing in the 5$ but I decided not to do it. I get enough ebay notices with just app. Getting more through texts just seems like asking for annoyance.

Boy, the last part of the triangle would be to find out that he's also a professional Todd McFarlane impersonator.

As the saying goes, "who watches the Watchmen?"
