CGC and Ebay Partner up?9509
Collector | Squack private msg quote post Address this user | |
I guess CGC isn't making bank over the $5-$10 charge for grading notes, so I suppose they have to make up that revenue from somewhere. What a joke of a service! The hubris of them to say "Give me money, and I will tell you what I think from a non-binding, limited opinion." Next thing you know they will offer a service where you take pics of your long and short boxes and they take your money to tell you how to properly alphabetize them. |

Quote:Originally Posted by dpiercy Totally useless. Let's say a seller has a raw ASM #301 that they say is a 9.8 and they are asking $500. Graded 9.8's are around $1,300 and graded 9.6's are around $150. This service will tell you it's in the 8.0 to 10 ballpark??? Gee thanks, for nothing! |

If you’re looking for the results, you won’t see the “grade guess” results on the eBay listing. It’s part of the money grab. Similar to CGC’s grader’s notes, the result of the “grade guess” won’t be made publicly available. Anyone who wants to know the “grade guess” will have to pay for it. |

@OGJackster If you are looking for the "CGC Expert Review", there's supposed to be a link on the listings by the price. I don't see it on any listing either, even the sample that was given above. I'm wondering if it is a feature only on eBay mobile. | ||

This will all hit the fan when one of the "Likely Universal (BLUE)" opinions turns into a Certified Purple Label of Death (RESTORED). | ||

@xkonk Thanks for that!!! It appears that the service is not available on all platforms, or maybe for all areas, yet. Here is a screenshot I just did of that listing. I'm not concerned because I'd never use the service, but I find it curious that it isn't universally available. |

@Jesse_O Weird. I'm not interested either, but I'm curious how/what decides if it appears. | ||

I must be the target of a CGC/eBay conspiracy!!! They must know of my daily social connections with CBCS and have decided to blackball me!!! Yeah, that's the only thing that makes sense!!! Now, if you will excuse me, I'm designing an improved tin foil hat that will look natural under a top hat. I hate standing out in a crowd!! | ||
