Shall I give it a try with CBCS or leave as is?

I'd give it a shot.
If someone was forging, the likelihood of adding "To William" would not be on the agenda I would believe.

If it fails VSP verification, you can always send back to CGC for re-grade.

@I_age_like_milk I'd definitely send it to CBCS for verification for the exact reasons @Nuffsaid111 stated. Great book!!

Welcome to the forum!!

You do know that the new guy brings the donuts, right? DWeeB1967 private msg quote post Address this user
Just understand that CBCS is going to grade it and the grade could drop (or rise or stay the same) below CGC's current grade.

But I'd send it to CBCS.

You can choose, if you want, not to encapsulate if it fails verification.

What was the grade? Can you show what the comic looks like?
Also, I would send it in for VSP as well.

It is a 3.0, never pressed and cleaned. I am thinking to send it to my comicbook presser. He pre-screened and indicated it wont drop a grade (unlikely at least) , but certainly would present itself better after the treatment. As I am not called William and signature might be legit, I‘d hoped that verification might enrich the book. Othwerwise I am happy with the book as is. I got jt a long time ago.

Thanks for sharing. Yes, a clean/press would make it display great.

Have I told you about the time I dropped off 3,000 comics at SDCC? Scifinator private msg quote post Address this user
@I_age_like_milk juice - Nice comic! I would definitely send in to CBCS for Press and VSP. As they will not photo the inside, you may want to crack open and photo the autograph before you send it in.

I had the same issue. Mine was a CGC 1.0, signature verification and bump to 1.5. I would do it. Congrats and enjoy.

SpongeBob Comics #1 sells for $991! Joosh private msg quote post Address this user
I would definitely press/vsp/regrade via CBCS, but only if intending to sell soon. Getting that book graded is expensive due to value; so if just holding it long term, regrading ties up more $ long term.
That’s the logical argument anyhow. If the grading cash is chump change, then absolutely do it.

Great POV. Thanks. I do not want to sell, as I dont have a next best alternative and see no need (yet). I want to get it to best feasible state now and keep it. 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.
