They be messing up a lot for the pass couple of years. Got some books i sent that looks nice and 9.8 contender. After slab they put 9.8 and physically looking at it, comics looks fucked. Like im happy it got the 9.8 but the comics said other wise. So for someone that will sell it, it might be hard too. Its like they only want you to keep the books.😅

I stopped slabbing with CGC after their Black Flag fiasco, and their performance has only deteriorated since then. I haven’t used any slabbing service since, and I won’t be returning to any until a company with genuine morals and integrity emerges.

Ever since they were bought out by that other company their quality control has hit rock bottom.

I had never felt confident sending my raw comics to them.

Love that you mention turn around time.

I would bet that they did "reslab" them, which was crack them open, take out the inner well, try to flatten it a bit, and then put it into a new slab. They won't actually cut it out of the inner well because that would require a regrade. I sent a slab back, years ago, because it was obviously sealed crooked inside the inner well. It came back to me in the exact same crooked inner well. "We tried, but we couldn't straighten it." No shit - you didn't cut it out of the inner well.

Makes me want to check my books

Horrible

This is unacceptable. Im sorry this happened.

CBCS doesn’t have that inner warp problem because the outer shell is tighter.

Oh, I see with your Spidey black suit comic, that inner pocket is bending and creasing the comic. I get it now. Looks like it caused bends in 3 or 4 areas on your book. No way a 9.4 now. They owe you money for that. Alot of money.

At 5:16 you see it. Jezus. I've always wanted to submit my Hulk 181, Avengers 4, etc. to CGC, never done it before. I'll hold off for awhile and keep 'em in my mylars and backing board and can read them anytime I want.

I thought cgc was supposed to be the best. I bought several cgc graded books on eBay. Now that I've seen this video it is now raising concerns about cgc graded comic books. I also collect coins and banknotes which are graded by ngc and pmg. I hope there are no problems with those grading companies.

Send them to PGX next time

I see they still have those crappy bags...goes along with the crappy service they have. Sorry about your books. I'd send them back and have CGC give you FMV for each of those.

Dude your cat is awesome and awesome collection to!😄 Im sad i missed my fav Majin Vegeta

I have a bunch of books from decades ago and was looking to have CGC evaluate the obvious ones like NM 98 and ASM 300 but after seeing this and the videos about CGC switching books I don’t see how CGC can be trusted.

Great collection MRC! I like the Dr. Strange 182 cover. Nick Fury 1 is one of the most iconic (and under-loved) covers.

Just got my order back from CGC and of six books two have the shaken comic syndrome and one has the same damage as your your ASM 252. Dang it now I have to fully check the full six again. Im very skittish now on sending any more books to them.

Fantastic vid!!! Thanks a lot!

Great video, appreciate you sharing it!

wow, great video. thanks so much

very helpful, worth the watch

ill definitely try that, thanks!

Love an inexpensive haul. Great gets!

Good. CGC is a terrible company.

Wolverine #1 has a spine roll. But that could be pressed out. Top of the front cover looks like it could use some more work. I see a slight wave right around the word "Monthly." The back is clean, though. Tough back cover. Black and white. The miswrap is the white part that overlaps from the back cover. A spine roll is not a miswrap. Research it. You can see the spine roll starting at 6:58. With further pressing, I think you should get a 9.8. You can even get rid of some of those invisible spine ticks. Do this and I think you will receive a 9.8 on the resubmission. A miswrap and misalignment are commonly mistaken as a spine roll.

Mine looks just like yours no joke and its 3.0 also. Fold in the same place. And i agree im just happy its in my PC

Thanks for sharing... I was reluctantly considering a submission but will now forgoe it. CGC is a mess right now and their assumption that they are the standard when it comes to 3rd party grading is mistaken. CBCS is my go to bow when I submit. I still prefer grading my own books and keeping them protected in top loaders.

Nice looking books, are those mylar bags you're using? I think I need to invest in those. Good pick ups, thanks for showing.

This is why Raw in a top loader is king sry bro 😢

Great group of books in really nice condition. It's nice to see a collector work on finishing runs and not just key books. You are a true collector

If I could make a recomendation, look back at your video and compare the times we see a blank plastic holder to the amount of time we see comics. Show your comics longer and don't have them cropped so we can't see the top or bottom just the middle 75%. This way we can look at them a little longer while you talk. Great content though, thanks

I've never submitted to them, there has been a few books that I have thought about turning in, but idk now. collectors have handed over the gavel as arbiters of what something is. I just don't like doing business that way. Raw all the way.

Those are some really nice books you picked up. The Dr. Strange 180 was a beauty. And most people do not understand what a good book that X-Men 25 black and white issue is, it's basically the equivalent of a Platinum Spiderman #1.

wonder if it’s being done on purpose to mess with the market. kinda how like Mcfarlane flooded the market with his signature.

Obviously, they take extra care of their own books and their friend’s books. We really let these people influence the market.

Your video is absolutely 100% FACTUAL as the current quality assurance process and procedures for the CGC warped inner wells is just unacceptable and ridiculous. I just received back from CGC a Modern submittal of 25 books. It was blatantly obvious that CGC has a defective products issue (warped inner wells) as I also experienced the exact same problem you presented. In CGC's defense, this defective product issue (warped inner wells) must have started to occur just recently as I've never had or seen this issue in my 20 years of submitting to CGC. In any case, whoever is currently in charge of CGC at this time needs to be fired!!! Good Job on making this video!!!

That's pretty shitty, hello CBCS!

Probably a bunch of dope smokers handling the books and running the encapsulation machine. 😅

I started to take pictures off my book next to a newspaper because they damaged one of my book and I didn’t have proof to show it to them

I was thinking of sending books to CGC, but after seeing this... I'm going to stick to CBCS!

They look nice and tempting to read so nice work!

I see a lot of books with the inner wells going up then down like a banana I don’t think it’s damaging the book like 80% of the Cgc slabs I’ve seen have this

I don't know if this is the same issue but I have noticed for a long time the CGC books I buy are all wavy inside the case . I made up my mind a long time ago to send any raw books I want graded to CBCS . Their cases are much nicer , better fit and clearer , no newton rings .

The defects can be on the interior pages. How come no one mentions that?

I’ve been on the fence whether to have the books graded for preservation or just go with Comic Capsules?

Do you document your comic inspection and packaging before sending it out? That way, you have proof of what your book had or didn’t have.

I had the same problem this spring. They damaged one of my comics. It was flawless upon submission, and it DID receive a 9.8, but the book is UGLY now! massive, hideous spine tic right in the middle. And the inner well looks like a banana!! On the left side, when viewed from the left. So frustrated.

Thanks for updating on this, it has to be horribly frustrating. I did send 3 of my books back that had the same issue, they are currently in Scheduled for Grading under "Mechanical Error" so will see what happens. I compared those 3 books of mine against many other slabs that I have and there is clearly an obvious difference.
