| Please forgive my ignorance and laziness ( I don't feel like combing through pages of posts to find this answer) but, why did CGC change the slab design in the first place? | ||

| Several reasons. 1. The company making the Barex for the inner well went out of business. So they needed to do a redesign 2. The old case had problems with shaken comics so they wanted to fix that when they redesigned the holder 3. Because CBCS came out with a better holder and CGC needed to step up their game. Unfortunately, they failed horribly. |

Quote:Originally Posted by matterus023We didn't pay attention when we received the books from cgc, once the issue arose and we actually looked at them again, we noticed. Additionally the book was on eBay since received in (April?) and the initial pictures don't show this. But I have books from May and June that are all getting waves and none of these books are pressed |

 Hard to see from the pic, however this "9.8" is definitely NOT now. I got it back and there was stress on the staples. I decided to leave it and see what happens, well now it is wavy! Safe to say I was already a solid CBCS customer because of their amazing personal customer service,now with this garbage there definitely is no swaying me! |

| And to think there are people on the CGC forum right now saying this is nothing but a few people making much to do about nothing. It's crazy.  |

| I like how some people chose to stay with the new case, but say their keeper books are going through CBCS. Like it's not good enough for their personal collection, but it's alright to sell garbage to other people. I also like how some people can't even see the problem with this. Like is the wrong word. Disgusted with is more accurate |

Quote:Originally Posted by MetalPSI Books that I want to sell now - send to CGC because of the perceived price difference between CGC and CBCS - to maximise cash. Books that are keepers - send to CBCS for superior customer service and a generally more pleasant experience. Nothing disgusting about it. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Mio I find it hard to believe any CGC comic in the new holder will get a higher price than a CBCS equivalent. Or am I missing something? |

Quote:Originally Posted by DannyBoy I also think the new CGC holder will bring parity among CBCS and CGC; but others might not perceive the same (until the evidence shows it). I suspect not all collectors follow the drama so closely. |

| I'm reading many comments to the tune that CGC will not redesign their holder. Can this be true?? Suicide. |

| I am currently speaking with someone that works for CGC about the new case and the implemented fixes. Once I get some data, I will share |

Quote:Originally Posted by Kinzebac No. And to be honest, I'm not expecting any. I think the whole contact was more or less just an attempt to make me feel bad. It worked, but it doesn't affect my common sense. I'd still like some answers as to what the actual fix for the excessive pressure on the books are. |
