| Does anyone have any experience with re-slabbing a CGC comic with CBCS? Did it retain it's grade? Did you submit the comic in its CGC holder, or just with the CGC label (raw)? | ||

| You can submit in the holder, they crack it and regrade. | ||

| CBCS will grade the book with no consideration of its CGC grade. Therefore, the book could get a lower grade (or higher or identical). Welcome to the forum! |

| Personally I would leave it in tbe holder for extra protection when shipping. Plus CBCS prolly has more practice extracting books from shell than yourself, to minimize an accident.... | ||

| I guess the question is why you would in the first place? Then you can figure out if the risk and potential value loss is worth it | ||

| The new CBCS holders really do outshine the cgc holders. The cgc holders are as heavy as boat anchors. | ||

| If your book is a gift grade, then I would leave it in the slab it currently sits in. | ||

| On the other hand, if you got the opposite of a gift grade (I guess "rooked"?), then yea. Plenty of that going around too |

Quote:Originally Posted by Haljordanfan It's true though. He's risking a lower grade. If he just wanted it in a cbcs case, that's that. Can't argue. But if it comes back the dame y grade it will likely sell for less. I might do it if I was a big cbcs fan and was confident in the grade, and it was a pc book. Adding a signature? Sure. Think you can get a higher grade? I'd be damn sure first, that's a gamble, always. That's my reasoning anyways. |

| I feel such a calm come over me when I get a book with notes "large bend across the back cover" and: A. The book was professionally pressed B. I've stared at the book for an hour; under different lighting, different angles, and the only bend I see is me bent over cringing in frustration. (And yea.. CGC for the record) |

| If the CGC comic is a 2.0, but I think it can actually fetch a 2.5 or higher, wouldn't the CGC label influence the CBCS grade? | ||

| @earthprime The graders don't see the cgc label. It's cracked out and discarded long before the book makes it to grading. | ||

| The one book I had that went from the cgc to CBCS was an 8.5 that stayed the same grade. | ||

I sent some in for the November promo...but...for most of them I was the original submitter to CGC and these were not pressed and I think with a press they could bump the Flash might not..has a defect that I think will limit the grade to the 7.0 that it is but I'm ok wih that as the CGC holder has oil slicks all over it - will be much nicer in a CBCS slab' The JLA 9 is also a 7 but I got from ebay in a PGX slab so it needs to come out - bump or no bump - just hope it has all its pages! I've had a few others before that either stayed the same or got a bump (with pressing). I try not to send unless I think a press will help  |

Did this a few years back, but it's probably still about the same. Most stayed the same with some minor grade fluctuations. The Teen Titans #2 was the only grade I felt was kind of off, while the others were fine.  |

| I crack out books for regrade myself. Those holders are really nice for holding/displaying worthless books that look cool. The old CBCS slabs can be clipped back together and the old CGC slabs hold together surprisingly well with a little clear packing tape at the corners. It seems a waste to throw them out |

| I felt like rolling the dice on this idea as well , however I'm not sure i want to run the risk: if it's slabbed, it's slabbed. Don't much like those other guys but I'm not gonna change horses half way across the river either. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by earthprime I had a 9.6 CGC book CBCS pressed and graded that came back 9.8. No doubt that it would have come back 9.6 without a press. In my personal opinion; CBCS grading is a bit more strict. I’d be ok with a .5 drop on a high or mid grade if that means it is accurately graded. To answer your 2.0 question. I think coming back 2.5 would be dependent on being pressable. Otherwise it would stay the same |

| My first submission included a CGC slab. Had the dreaded green label (that was on me, sent in a signed book) and I sent in for VSP and included a press and the grade stayed the same but was verified. | ||
