| I just got back a Chris Evans signed book that I had sent in to SWAU for CGC grading back in February. The book is definitely within specifications within the case. Hawkeye's Bow specifications, that is. I'll now take a financial hit with the book and that is the final straw for the foreseeable future. A damaged book in the case is quite observable to anyone. Everything else that's happened in the past with their B.S. ultimately became the buyers problem; so I could care less. This CGC nonsense is now MY problem and MY financial hit; and I'm just not going accept that. |

| Still happening. I received about 15 min ago a book I dropped off with CGC at SDCC on 7/27. The book is definitely bowed/curved. As I look at it I wonder if this is an attempt on CGC’s part to eliminate the newton rings.  |

| From reading the other boards it seems like it is being caused by their attempts to make the slab harder to break into. | ||

| CGC is dumb....all they need to do is get there hands on a CBCS slab and reverse engineer it. Copy the best slab in the industry and all their slab problems go away. They can strike one issue off their long long list of issues. | ||

| It's definitely harder to break. I torqued my last one and absolutely nothing happend. The fact that this is still happening is 100% their fault and even more so since they refuse to acknowledge it. I'm sorry but I want my comics to come back to me the same way I sent them off on. |

 I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie.

Quote:Originally Posted by DrWatson It probably is but I meant more like how cbcs is able to have a book be flat in a slab and still not have newton rings. Copy how that inner well and the outside slab work together properly. |

| Going out on a lomb here but if they were that smart they would have done it already. From Newton rings, swapping books and now twisting comics; they're really bad at this lol | ||

| I'm not sure if it was orchestrated or an accident. I've heard mention that the inner well is a tad too big. It fixed the slab squeaking problem, but apparently it causes the book to curve and cause spine ticks. I'm not sure about the Newton rings. | ||

| IMO, you can’t fk up that many books and maintain the title of professional grading. | ||

| Mark Nelson: Team - we need a permanent solution now for the reholder situation. Bonus points if we also fix Newton Rings Employees: Let's do "X"; Let's also do "Y" proposals. Mark Nelson: Great ideas team! how fast can we get this solution/solutions implemented? Employees: A couple weeks with no testing or validation. Several months if we do full engineering testing and prototype validation. Mark Nelson: We need this now. Go with 2 weeks and do a risk analysis if something goes wrong. Employee: Risk analysis complete sir - anything goes wrong with the design, the countermeasure is to deny deny deny. Mark Nelson: Great job team. Let's get it done. |

| I'm surprised CBCS hasn't sent an employee undercover to get hired by CGC and wear a hidden camera to work. CBCS needs to think outside the box more. |
