I don't want to brag, but cashiers are always checking me out. power_struggle55 private msg quote post Address this user
Bought a graded comic from mycomicshop. I noticed (hasn't shipped) that the label has discoloration. is this a deal breaker? I mean personally don't care but should I?

I blame the forum gremlins. figment private msg quote post Address this user
Wait until you see it in person, that looks like it could be a scanner or photo effect.

contacted them to verify if its photo or a defect. there was no mention in description which they claim they will mention if any slab defects

got comic because I liked cover (2 girls reading comics) and for the price I paid. helps build slabbed collection (now at 15 total) and had noticed it after I ordered

Label is sometimes wavey inside the case and shows oddly when scanned/photoed

I would check the serial number and grade in the CBCS "Population" report. If it's there, then I wouldn't worry about it, but if it's not then I would contact CBCS.

I went to look at the back and noticed a somewhat similar "discoloration" on back. so I think figment and KatKomics are correct with it being just the image from the scan

I did contact them to ask about it but as you said its probably the picture. if it comes in with the defect Ill contact them. as their eBay description say

I'd argue discoloration should've been mentioned

Just checking in case you weren't aware of the savings by kicking eBay to the curb.
