Quote:Originally Posted by Tedsaid Fair enough. .. but I don't think anyone has a leg to stand on, if coming at it from a legal point of view. I think we should all count ourselves lucky that CBCS are even willing to re-think the label. .. and that .. is where I shall leave it  |

Quote:Originally Posted by D84 This, all day, every day. What a joke. I bet if CBCS announced free slabbing to everyone 'holding back' due to these Satan-spawned labels, opinions would suddenly change. If they are going to bother with the label again, hopefully they do put out a poll. I'd hate to see all the butthurt threads crying, "But they didn't ask MMMMEEEEEEEE!" |

| I've been a pretty harsh critic about all of this, but I think taking a legal angle is taking it a bit too far. However, I think the question is was this a good business decision to not take in consideration about how your customers would react to such a change, especially to those customers that already had orders in? For whatever reason, it is obvious there was a total assumption by CBCS this new label would be well received overall. Instead, at least for some of us, this roll out and how it was handled has been perceived as an inconsiderate detachment toward their customers, not well planned or thought out, exacerbated by the recent debacle over at the competition. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Foghorn_Sam I absolutely agree. Just to be perfectly clear, I have zero interest in taking the legal angle, and assume everyone else does, too (including CBCS). It's a real pain in the rear, dealing even with small claims court. I would be very surprised if it got even close to that point. Especially since CBCS has such a great reputation and are bending over backwards (from what I've seen) trying to address this issue. No my point was just to summarize the legal angle as I see it - what contract law means and so forth, and how that might come into play. I mean, think about it ... this forum is not just for customers, but also for CBCS who presumably are reading everything here (or at least, can read it). So all that before was just for informational purposes, to add to the discussion. I don't think anyone truly wants to go that route; and if everyone is on the same page, then I think it is, if anything, even less likely. |

| If you don't like the new label, then follow this formula: Don't submit books + Cancel current orders = No more twisty angst. Reholder Corollary: Have any books that do not apply to the above formula reholdered when the FUBARed label is replaced with something more... tenable. Bonus: 1) Most overused word of the decade = entitlement. 2) Most overused phrase of the decade = first world problems. 3) Most overused phrase for this thread = beating a dead horse. |

@DrWatson but entitlement has great validity in so many areas of life now. So I will continue to use it. You entitled to disagree though  |

| I wonder...if you get your books graded with this "ugly" label and then within the year it changes? Do you think this will make your slabs worth more, because there were a limited print run LOL!!!! Think about that! P.S. I really don't care right now since I have no submissions HA! Nothing like being the new kid! |

| You may be on to something, some collectors already actively seek out the old CGC labels, why not the even rarer CBCS rivet label from the Era when Americans selected Trump and Clinton as the two most qualified people to run the country and life only had purpose in finding Pokémon. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Evangelon Well, they're not actually collecting the label, of course. To some the old label indicates a book that is undergraded and less likely to have been pressed. People buy old label CGC books for the CPR potential. |
