Watcher private msg quote post Address this user | |
and I have a question about NRs....havent tried it, but if the slab has leeway on the sides (I assume they still do)...would sliding a thin strip of clear plastic (maybe 1cm wide) through the middle of the slab (left to right) relieve the contact pressure causing the rings? without placing indentation lines on the book of course. Or maybe even one at the top and one at the bottom so it doesn't catch your eye...I guess a couple drinks has me throwing caution to the wind  but it's Friday night and Im home online in my comic book group so I'm not sure how crazy I'm being. My 20 yr old self would be ashamed to know me |

Quote:Originally Posted by Watcher I suppose that would work in theory but the inner well could possibly bulge in the center (if you put pieces of plastic at the top and bottom) or bulge at the top and bottom (if you put one piece of plastic in the center). You'd have the be careful that doesn't happen. |

| Uh man, and they're worst around her boobs! Why do people keep sending things to cgc?! Oh yes...Far better TATs, more favorable grading and obviously higher return on investment... Sorry dude! Have you considered listing your copy and buying a cbcs graded 9.6 with the cash? |

| @Drogio - I already sold it. I have a 9.8 already. This was just a great looking raw copy I found out at a con. | ||

| @Gaard - no, because I mentioned them and used that photo in the listing. Probably lost $100 or so because of the crappy rings. | ||

| As a novice to CGC, someone who has never sent in a comic to be graded...I find those newton rings to be an eye sore! | ||

| how can rings be avoided? is it by using a thicker plastic case? | ||

| @kaptainmyke - they don’t happen in the cases with the recessed inner well; they happen in the cases that have the two seams along the side. I am requesting the inner well case whenever I submit from now on. | ||

@kaptainmyke put a post it note in with the books. Didn’t say they would necessarily honor my request.  |

| I saw this post in the CGC forum. I'm following it to see what king of replies it gets. Apparently the post was originally buried in a another thread https://www.cgccomics.com/boards/topic/440951-newton-rings/ |

Ok - to continue a conversation that was started on the "New to your collection #3" thread, here are the pics and the screenshot I shared. These are dealing with newton rings and a lack of an inner well with CGC slabs.   |

| I got 4 flip books back last week. Each has a very small amount on the back cover. They have made good progress on the problem, but it is not quite solved yet | ||
