| Okay. There has always been talk about the labels though. I have no clue how many people they talked to in person about it. | ||

| @Evangelon I did hear (and see) some complaints from people about the original label. I don't know how vocal they were with CBCS at cons. I didn't love the original label myself but in hindsight it seems like a good design that could have just been cleaned up a bit. I have no problem with their decision to re-design the label. Just could have been executed better. Both the design and the logistics of the switchover. |

| Yeah I have put off buying a bunch of books because of the new label. And I have a stack of 10 keys that I was going to send in, but now I guess I have to wait until they update. Don't get me wrong, I love CBCS grading, customer service and the cases, but that label.....ugh! | ||

| @Oxbladder surely they can get some spare change from recycling all the used plastic from their reholders. |

Quote:Originally Posted by DarthLego For some reason threads full of bigtime drama tend to start on Fridays more than other nights. Don't know if it's true, but it sure seems that way. Of course some people try to egg the whole thing on. It's probably Moderation 'going home for the weekend', so things go unchecked. Something like that. |

| I just hope they come out with some sort of statement soon. What's up with the prototype label from SDCC. I have some books coming up and I would love to seem them in the SDCC prototype label. | ||

I've recently decided to try out CBCS after all of the great things I had read and just sent in my books to be graded before I heard about the new label  It's not the worst thing in the world but I do wish it looked better. I was even fine with the label before this one.What did the SDCC prototype label look like? |

While the 'new' label isn't perfect, companies rebrand themselves all the time. I'm just excited that my books have done to QC and hopefully will slide through the rest of the process easily. I only have seven books currently in the system, so if CBCS comes out with something better I can always send them in for reholding.  |

| I was told by Customer service that the New, new labels will begin once the supply of new labels runs out. The only thing not working for me with that prototype is the way the white fades to blue and back. Looks like a 70's tydied T-shirt | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Evangelon Well if this is the case then they need to make an official statement soon and let us know what's going on, how large the supply is and when they estimate it running out. There's quite a few of us who are holding back submissions because of the FrankenRivet. |
