Ive submitted books on 9.8 prescreens and had some returned unslabbed. I sent them in again with another batch and got the 9.8. its too bad the graders dont all have the same standard. Nice newsstands by the way. Thanks for the fun videos.

Sure you did. And we should take some random a-hole on the internet's word for this.

I think graders notes are more important to have on a CGC 9.6 book than it is to have them on any book lower than a CGC 7.0.

@jay-jose9952 8 ай бұрын

Agreed. Anything less than a 10 should have grader's notes since there is something keeping it from being a 10.

@GravelRacer1 8 ай бұрын

Agreed, if they give it a 9.6 or 9.4, they need to explain why. It is very important for the buyer

Another great video; disappointed on that Daredevil 183 at 9.6. I'm convinced that CGC may sometimes grade to a curve especially if it's a popular/big book.

Those Transformers 3-packs are paying off big time, whoever sold them lost out on thousands of $$$.

Well, he probably paid like $100 for the box in 1985ish, and sold all the lots for like $10,000.. so in his mind I think he thinks he made a killing

What other defects were in that transformers 1. $60 raw for a nm, wow.

@ImproveCollectingComics 8 ай бұрын

A couple tiny spine ticks on the back, a bindery ding, and a common defend near the boys face on the front. Pretty perfect otherwise

@jeffkeller9009 8 ай бұрын

I'm amazed they did not give you 9.9s on some of those books. Makes me less trustful of their grading scale. I think of CGC grading as more of a generalization.

@ImproveCollectingComics 8 ай бұрын

I understand late '80s and early '90s newsstands being worth more. But I don't understand why early '80s newsstands are worth more. I believe direct and newsstand had similar distribution numbers in the very early '80s.

@comicbookchris3509 8 ай бұрын

You are too good with grading to waste money with paying for pre-screens. I've never pre-screened. I buy books clean/slab/sell. I try to avoid coin flips on lower level books that must get 9.8s to make a decent profit. If they fail to get a 9.8 most still break even or close to. If I spent $8 to pre-screen books I would lose $$.

CGC HAS HAD MY BOOKS FOR OVER A MONTH AND A HALF. THEY HAVE BEEN SITTING IN GRADING AND SLEEVING WITH NO MOVEMENT .. EITHER THEY ARE REALLY BUSY OR I AM STUCK WITH ONE HARSH GRADER TAKING THEIR TIME..ALL THE GRADERS ARE NOT THE SAME AND DO NOT SEE FACTORY DEFECTS THE SAME. I HAD A GIJOE #2 SUPER CLEAN AND 9.8 ALL THE WAY. AND IT CAME BACK 8.5 WITH NOTES SAYING FACTORY COLOR SCUFF BACK COVER. SHOULD NOT HAVE AFFECTED THE GRADE BUT IT DID WE WILL SEE..

@user-tl3lq6uk4o 8 ай бұрын

Are they custom label books? I've had a few stuck with CGC far longer than they should have been and after contacting them several times they confirmed that the books are in a holding pattern while they await the arrival of custom labels, which apparently they ran out of.

@tyrannyunitreqingdealers2772 8 ай бұрын

Cgc has 3 graders appraise each comic. The avg. Of the 3 grades makes up the final grade. So, remember guys, the grade given isn't decided by a single grader who is evaluating your comic book.

@user-tl3lq6uk4o 8 ай бұрын

I think their current language is that 'at least 2 graders' will evaluate your books.

@ImproveCollectingComics 8 ай бұрын

I really find it hard to believe.. based on how inconsistent the grading is
