If you stand by your verification (whether it be a witness you take the word of or your SV techniques you trust) it should be yellow..at least in situation like above.

but I guess there's a good reason..maybe it's just how they maintain credibility considering there are so many whiners out there

I doubt its marketing as imagine cbcs would get a whole lot more business if they have their verified slabs with yellow labels..

At the end of the day, its just a squiggle on a page thats probably one of hundreds rushed out in a line at a convention. What's the difference if it being verified as witnessed vs verified via analysis.. Both processes are equally open to potential abuse.

I thought they did, actually.

Like CGC does with Qualified green labels..with unwitnessed sigs or a popped staple etc...than a signature w/or without a remark, is witnesed by a CGC SS faciliator or direct CGC employee (at a con, via CGC's booth)....and you get a green Qualafied label with a bit of gold trim, specifically denoting what is part of the CGC SS and what is not.

My Hulk 181 was already signed by Len Wein when I had a witnessed Stan Lee signature, and it’s not a green label. It’s a yellow label, but it states that “Len Wein” is written in felt pen on the cover. I wonder if they gave me a lower grade because of the Len Wein signature...
