The one thing they also do not tell you is if they will even do a press and clean on your book even after you paid for the service. I had a submission of ten books that I had sent in and they held them at CCS for almost 9 months before forwarding them to CGC for grading. Once I got the books back I was really shocked with some of the grades I got back to include what was in the graders notes. I had three books that were in their original polybags, so when the notes on those books indicated polybag creases then I knew that CCS had not even pressed them. I had another book that wasn't polybagged and it came back with fingerprints in the graders notes. I then decided to never use CCS ever again. Like you said Bry learning how to press and clean comics is not that complicated and I have had some amazing results doing it myself without paying someone else for the service or the long turn around time.

@BrysComics Жыл бұрын

Exactly why I don’t recommend CCS, poly bag creases can be very difficult to remove, sometimes requiring humidity. I have no doubt they pressed your book but it was probably a quick press and clearly wasn’t enough. The fact that they “called it good” is garbage…

@Kcameron305 Жыл бұрын

Yup. Horrible experience with CCS. I had a couple more modern books with the most simple pressable defects. Every single one still had them. I couldve got them out with my presser. Guess that's what I get for being lazy. Ccs is a total scam.

Super helpful video Bry, especially for those just starting out submitting to CGC. I wish I had seen your video a year or two ago when I began my journey of CGC submissions😂. Oh well, a day late and a dollar short is my motto. Your videos are such a great educational resource for the comic book community. Thank you very much and keep on posting!

@MrPelletty 9 ай бұрын

after making my first large submission a few years back i was blown back by the amount i needed to pay for cleaning and pressing from cgc. Since then i have decided it is a better investment for me to learn how to do it myself. If you are doing 10 books or less a year I would let someone else clean and press your books. Now I am able to remove stains, yellowing, soiling, bends and far more issues that ccs would ever address with much better results. From what i have seen they are doing all the basic things but they have fantastic machines for pressing.

@gregm7269 Жыл бұрын

If you remember, CCS used to offer two options of pressing: "quick press" and "full/reg press". Then one day they said in an email they have improved pressing sooo much they only have one option to choose from now.....pretty sure it's ALL the 'old' quick press now. Which means very minimal results.

Love this number crunching, it really does give insight in the process and assessment of value. I did the Canadian per book and I find the sweet spot was 15 books at 47.40 per book shipping via Canada Post. CGC shipping has been way faster in general. Last submission took less than a month. 6 months ago it was taking about 4 months round trip previously at it's fastest. Always learning with your content. Good stuff.
