| They have an unbelievable volume of books going through there so mistakes are inevitable, but I buy from them on a massive level and my experience has been more mistakes above their grade than below. Inserts are their worst issue. Stating a book has a Mark Jeweler insert and it not being there when I receive it. Tattooz as well. Mislassification is their biggest fault, not grading, IMO. There is a gamble but I'd say for the most part, buyers there are playing with house money. |

Just a little more info about how MCS does business. The last few days I had an issue where an order was stuck on processing for a week(that never happens). I messaged them and within a day they had shipped it and refunded me my delivery fee without me asking for it.  |

| MCS has been a mixed bag for me and I learned alot over the years from dealing with them. Selling to them or through them with raw books, expect anything you submit to get knocked down at least 1-2 grades. From my experience, raw books are really given the hard side of the deal to avoid returns. I wont ever sell raw books again through them for any reason. This has been especially observable in books I won from them through auction, with the original grading sticker still in the bag, when submitted for resale coming back much lower grade with many flaws not noted when the book was sold to me. Conversely it is a buyers market, with many books that I have gotten with a stated grade, being much higher grade when graded by CGC or CBCS themselves rather than MCS. I think their customer service, and system for selling etc are all far and beyond the best out there. The people, especialy Este are amazing. I do feel they do the entire hobby a diservice using such forced grading. It suggests a much harsher system than most in the hobby folow, and exists only to avoid returns for the ultra tight convervative grading some do. There should be a more middle ground that does less harm to seller grades and gives buyers a truer picture of the book they will get Just my opinion after buying and sell, trading with them for about ten years give or take. |

| I think buying raw books through MCS is great. I have never been disappointed, but I can imagine that selling raw books through them would be pretty frustrating. Customer Service is top shelf, phenomenal people over there. |
