I've passed the information on to the graders and will let you know if the ASM 800 gets updated.

@Bree..... Is there a reason that Amazing Spider-man #299 DOESN'T say 1st appearance of Venom in cameo on last page on the CGC label?
I mean he does appear on the last page of #299, #300 says the 1st Full Appearance.... so it stands to reason that there was an "earlier appearance of venom than #300", which I would assume would be #299......
Hi, I've asked the graders and Eddie Brock/Venom is one of several characters whose first/earliest appearance are debated about among fandom as how to classify. We feel the way we currently have the Key Comments for those books is adequate.

I have an incredible hulk 181 which was miss cut from the printer. 4 or 5 interior pages extend beyond the cover. Can it be put in a larger case or have the pages folded back under before slabbing it? Would this get a green label due to a printing error or a blue, if it is allowed?
Hi,
Typically, to get on the newsstand, the book would come with the extra paper folded over. Assuming it has that natural fold, we would keep the extra paper folded over when we encapsulate it so that it fits in our holder. It does not get any special label or notation. It may be mentioned in the internal notes.

First time submitting to CGC
Hey fellow collectors ,
I have some questions to you since this is the first time I'm submitting something to CGC.
When using the online submitting form, the website is asking me at one point which shipment menthod I want and if I have a FedEx account number.
So so far so good. I enter my FedEx account number and then the final checkout page shows me I have to pay 346$ for grading and 300$ for shipping.
Why does the website show me shipping costs in the total amount? CGC can't know the shipping costs through my FedEx account since I have some special shipping rates with them because I live in Germany. I always get a bill from FedEx with the shipping costs I have to pay to them.
So so my question is, will CGC charge my credit card with 646$ or with 346$ and I'll get my shipping bill from FedEx like always.
Hi,
As long as you have a fedex account number on file with us, you won't get charged. Why don't you email me your member number and fedex account number and I can get that all set up for you? My email is bree@cgccomics.com

Hi,
Unfortunately this is still too large for us to encapsulate.

Hi,Yes, Nintendo Power magazines do count as comic magazines.

Ask CGC Q got deleted with no answer?
I posted a Q in the 'ask CGC' forum and it was pending approval for over a week and then just got deleted?
Maybe someone else has asked this question before:
I want to know if it is possible to have a CGC label written in Canadian/British English.
For example, if one slabs a TOS 40, the label will read 'first appearance of gold armor' and I would like it to read 'first appearance of gold armour.'
Is this possible?
Hi Patriot6!The information for each label (writers, artists, key comments, etc.), including how words are spelled, are stored in our database so that they don't have to retyped from scratch for every book. To go into the system and change a certain word's spelling, then print the label, and then go into the system and revert words back to the previous spelling, would be far too time consuming to do by request. We would essentially be creating a custom label every time. -
Hi,
Books that have a signature on an interior page will not be Qualified, and therefore have the writing factored into the grade. An interior signature usually has a very minimal affect on the grade, and a small, neatly-placed signature on an interior page can often still achieve a 9.8 (assuming of course that the book is otherwise a 9.8 already).
Although the book would get a Blue Universal label, it will still state (in lowercase) "Name written on 1st page in pen." (or whichever page it happens to be). -
Hello,
The only way a comic can get our Signature Series authentication is if the book is actually signed in front of a CGC witness, employee, or through a CGC facilitator, and we immediately accept the comics for grading. That way we know with 100% certainty that the signature is authentic. If you don’t have a witness at the time of the book getting signed, unfortunately we would not be able to authenticate the signature.
When CGC is present at a Comic Con, we will have witnesses available at the CGC booth that will walk with you to witness a signature. Go to the CGC booth before getting a signature and ask to have a witness escort you.
We have witnesses available at multiple Comic Cons throughout the year to help you get your books signed and witnessed properly. You can find a complete list of the comic cons we will be attending at http://www.cgccomics.com/events
We do not accept COA's as proof of signature as they are easily forged. We would recommend that you keep possession of your COA as we do not encapsulate them with your book.
Your signed comics, if graded, would get our green Qualified label with a notation of "Name written on cover in marker" with no assertion of who may have signed the comic. By giving your comic our Qualified label, we are ignoring the signature for purposes of the grade.
Please let me know if I may assist you with anything further.

Hi,
No, we are unable to grade hard cover magazines or comics.
-
"hey we are really busy what do you want from us?" doesn't seem right.
Hi,
This isn't something any of our customer service representatives would say. Do you know who you might have spoken to?
Thanks,
-
Or maybe some of you guys are just not professional graders?
The difference between a professional and an amateur is that the professional gets paid for their work.
I have gotten back 200 books since Xmas and things seem very consistent to me.
I had a fellow boardie complain about his grades last month. He cracked them out and showed them to me which he then after admitted what he missed. He went from frustrated with CGC to mad at himself. Mistakes of course happen on both sides, but more often than not the submitter failed to see something the professionals saw.
How about when a book is resubmitted and it comes back in a lower grade with no new defects introduced?
Where does that stand in your opinion?
According to cgc customer service it's impossible to resubmit a book without it being damaged while opening the slab. Also, you're exaggerating.
Wait... I'm sorry what? When did they say this?
Hi,
I'm sorry do you know who you would have spoken to you that told you that? I'm the customer service manager here and I know for a fact that we can crack out books without there being any damage. Maybe there was some confusion in the conversation.
-
No, that shouldn't be. If CGC has made a mistake we will always fix it free of charge including getting you reimbursed for the shipping cost it took to get back to us.
-
After doing some research and discussion between the comic book and magazine departments, we decided that this does warrant an update on our labels.
The label for Marvel Super Action #1 will be changed to indicate that it is the first Weirdworld, and Marvel Premiere #38 will be changed to specify that it is the first appearance of Weirdworld in comics.
-
Yes, we would be able to grade these, just make sure you have a witness for the Stan signatures.

Hi,
That used to be the case however if you only have a few you can turn them into us at the convention.
I would read through the other one though as Mod's in the past have posted on it
Killing Joke - Press or no?

Hi,
No we wouldn't be able to do that either. Sorry about that!
