Haven't seen a CBCS Signature event lately, have they stopped doing that?

Mail in events are on hiatus until they have someone to coordinate them. I don’t remember the specifics, but that person is no longer with CBCS.

I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for. drchaos private msg quote post Address this user

Matt Edawrds was the man but he did get the boot.

Spoke with my sales rep Cody yesterday.

It seems that mail in signings are not likely to happen for a while.

That eas my takeaway after bringing the topic up on a call that was mostly covering other topics.

Thanks, now I'm more concerned about getting comics I sent back in early December back. I think this will be the last time I use CBCS. I've gotten comics back from CGC that I sent well after the ones to CBCS. It's unfortunate because I like their case better. Guess I'll just hope for the best that I get them back at all.

I hear their hourly rate is outrageous! sportshort private msg quote post Address this user
@wk69 - DM @Cody_Lockwood - he is the best person to help with your issue. Be sure to DM him, not post on a thread.

All outward indications are that yes - that part of the business is dead.

I mean...the offerings were always lack luster and sparse but at least there was an opportunity to get yourself cleared as an official witness for say your local convention so you could get books signed there as Witnessed rather than verified....not sure if that is active any longer either......

Judging from the volume and frequency of e-mails I get from CGC it kind of seems like CBCS is leaving a decent amount of coin on the table...guess they don't need our cash??


to be fair though I'm not sending my cash anyway right now...current world issues prevent me from willfully expending any un-needed dollars on products or services from certain global locations......

I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie. flanders private msg quote post Address this user
@KatKomics maybe now's the time for you to start CGS(Canadian Grading Services). Your one stop shop for cards, comics, vhs and video game grading.
