I have a WWBN 32 that I found (2) small dots on the spine likely done with a marker. The book is lower grade (4.0-5.0) with various types of wear and the CT does nothing to improve eye appeal or hide anything, additionally there are probably another 15 spine ticks that could have been touched but werent. My question is does this still warrant a purple label as the book is already low grade, this doesnt improve or detract from eye appeal? I can post pics if it makes a difference.

UPDATE to Shortboxed Shipping and Service issue
Old Fashion PB and J replied to Gambold Vintage's topic in Comics General
You are comparing apples to oranges. You are comparing a company that is set up similar to Heritage, or Comic Link to Ebay. Heritage and Comic Link do not require the books be sent to them prior to selling in their marketplace, as previously stated they contact the seller to confirm they still have the book and then proceed to receiving the book and then ship to the customer. It takes MUCH longer than Ebay, Instagram, Etc due to the amount of shipping and receiving, And you don't need to like that business model, learning this you may prefer to not use these style of sites, although the auctions do require the books be in hand before the auction begins. Depending on what the sellers shipping policy is on Ebay, they may NOT respond in 24 hrs or even 48 if their shipping states they ship within 72 hrs or even 5 business days. Additionally NO business is required to have 24hr support, or work any more hours than they choose. Shortbox has been a member here for years, so as a member of the forum and community I am sure they come here to check PMs between friends and read posts. This is still a hobby that many sellers still enjoy, so interacting with friends and peers in non-business hours isn't irrational or "running interference". This has become a major issue in todays world, due to the internet and online selling, people have lost respect for people. The belief that because you run a business and are home, so you should still be responding to emails. Or that because you have a work email and should be responding outside of business hours is unrealistic. People are allowed to use their free time however they please and to expect people to work outside of operating hours because the customer wants an answer now, is BS and straight up disrespectful by assuming your time is more important than theirs by not respecting their time. And dont take this as ragging on you, or piling on. I genuinely think that maybe you just aren't familiar with the business model of companies like Comiclink, Shortbox, etc. So hopefully this clears a few things up, I don't know the people who work at shortbox but I am confident they are probably fairly small and don't have the resources yet to handle a few hundred emails a day between sales and consignors. -

PGM Vengeance of Bane 1
Old Fashion PB and J replied to Old Fashion PB and J's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
Really? Printing defect? -
I have this book, and its sharp but on the BC there is an indent that could press out. But more importantly there is some weird paint marker splatter and I am definitely lost as to how CGC would knock that.

Shoot. I have known you for what 14-15 years? I wouldnt call us friends, I would say we are friendly for certain and that we always have some kind of nice conversation. But to think because you went up and looked at a dealers books that they should just give you books below cost and ask how your dogs are doing is absurd. And your pricing is always fair, and your grading is accurate, so whats he crying about? See you in Baltimore Bob, I am sure you will be happy to see Jess
