I was sort of kidding, but it looks like that might be the case.

I also have the last two submissions from Thanks24 that are at CBCS, but haven't hit received yet.

Likewise. Just sitting in the shipping queue. Thankfully, it's not like I'm obsessive and check it every 15 minutes or so...

Sometimes I am. Sometimes I'm not. It depends on how often I've talked to my therapist, lol. 🙃

Books confirmed as shipped today. And yeah, @ComicNinja0215, one book was a gut punch with the grade. Others were in line with what I expected. 2 banana books kept the same grades. Most valuable banana book dropped from 9.4 to 9.0. I'll probably sell it and find a replacement 9.4 at some point.

@lawguy1977 damn! Sucks, sorry brother. I'm gonna keep this one because this is the second time I've been disappointed with a grade on this book. Daredevil 158 has let me down twice but at least it's in a cbcs case. 👍

How this was a cgc 7 0 is mind boggling.

For all of those experiencing grade drops due to banana slabs from the cgc going to CBCS slabs:

@ComicNinja0215 yeah, it's not fun but it doesn't mean it can't happen, it's just of all the books, I didn't want my Batman #423 to drop.

As for CGC, it's just obvious that their grading is not consistent. Doesn't mean it's wrong all the time, I've seen it go both ways.

And yeah, regardless for this batch of books, I know my books are accurate and safely encapsulated when it comes to CBCS. I just really hope the next couple of submissions go better with my banana books. I've got an Uncanny X-Men #130 that was a 9.8 (and truly was on that level before CGC decided to put it in a warped sleeve), so fingers crossed.

@lawguy1977 That would sting. Good luck.

I'm still happy with the X-Men 130 CBCS 9.6 I got from you a while back.

I remember us having to chase it through the mail, lol.

@DrWatson that was awful! Of all the stuff I've mailed over the years, that was the one that decided to get hung up. Just glad it finally made it there.

But yeah, I had a really good 2024 with work, so I bought a raw copy that I knew was in the 9.6/9.8 range. I just hope it still is after it's all said and done.

@lawguy1977 me too man. I had most stay the same though; which is pretty good. The real yes is going to be the books I dropped at nycc. Those are the books they mangled.

I always go "well maybe... maybe I'll just look at one or two of the grades before I have them in hand..." and end up reading the whole list and getting super excited regardless lol

I looked.

One super dud (.5 INCOMPLETE) which was my fault. Two okays that I was hoping would bump, but didn't. And the rest were super spectacular; 16 9.8s, 1 9.6, and three 9.4s. There were five other Silver Age books (FF Annuals) that ranged from 4.0 to 6.5 submitted with no real expectations. All in all, I'm happy.

@DrWatson sorry about the .5 but the other books sound great at least! Nothing wrong with 16 9.8s
