CBCS Only Slabs You Just Got Back #217617
 I don't believe this....and I know you don't care that I don't believe this.

| Depending on how big the big books we're talking about...all big books should be slabbed regardless of grade in my opinion. When I see unslabbed big books for sale, I assume it's unslabbed for a reason. I believe they're restored/conserved. | ||

| Press everything. There's no reason not to do it. The fee is nominal compared to the benefits. I have personally bought a 7.5 and turned it into a 9.8 with a press and resub. Best $10 I've ever spent on a comic book. I will never press screen another book. That was a waste of $10 that could have been applied to the press job the book ended up getting any way. |

| Well, I've found that CBCS is about as consistent as you'll ever get out of a bunch of humans. And grade screening is your friend. It protects you from those sudden unexpected surprises. It's the maxi-pad of third party grading. |

| I asked how much to get a book pressed and I was quoted $40 at the CBCS booth. Thought it was way expensive to pay $40 to press a book that cost me $30 and have it graded on top of that. Makes the graded book $100 all in. |

| You were either told the wrong price or you have a book worth thousands. Regardless, code word sales are your friend. What book is it? |
