Quote:Originally Posted by flanders I know Danielle, not personally per se, but I've met her and her boyfriend/husband/significant other. They're not on welfare. They're self employed in the comic business. Her b/h/so deals in some very nice books. Adam aka Filter81 on the cgc boards. Very nice guy. He's quiet and reserved. She's boisterous and outgoing. |

| @DrWatson I think it's great 1. that there is a woman who is in our hobby, that's quite rare overall. 2. that she is trying improve her knowledge of the grading process. Good for her. I have been in this hobby for over 30 years now, and I am always learning. |

| Nice.. Interesting they had to state "the grade assigned will take into consideration the grade of the acetate cover as well as the interior of the book. ". Does this mean they have not been doing this to date, or are they implying those magical 9.9 and 10.0 are the grade given to the entire book (holes included) as that is the way they were graded.. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Wraith Not sure it could be read any other way. This also explains the high number of 9.9 and 10s. They're backpeddling because they got caught. Wonder how long this would have taken if not for the sales floor fiasco. |

| I wonder what happened to make them do this. Every communication prior to this was some version of, "We did nothing wrong, nothing to see here, go about your business." I feel like there had to have been outside pressure from somewhere; auction houses? Marvel? Entities with lots of submissions? It just seems like a huge walk back after doubling down more than once. |

Quote:Originally Posted by KatKomics Ya know Kat....you make a great point on membership renewals. I know for a fact, if I were a CGC member and this happened, I would move ALL my expected services to CBCS. CGC has shown me their cards...."Grading outside, but not inside"????...wait? What? *sighs* 'Bout time failure exposed itself openly. Maybe now "they" will step up to their job a bit better. Now only if those darn Newton ringsv would go away...lol.... Z |

Quote:Originally Posted by ZosoRocksthere is a thread over there on QC issues.. In last couple of days someone showed their slab with 9.8 I believe but they knew it had a big internal defect as the presser tore the inside pages and sent photo but owner decided to go through with grading anyway. Easy to speed up TAT by not looking at internals |
