ive just acquired a foil cover comic and it came with imperfections, the vendor states that these are from the mfg process and should not be dinged if submit for grading.... ive asked my fellow forum members their thoughts in the section below, but wonder what CGC stance is for foil imperfections?

after looking at other foil books and markings, ive decided to consider the issue closed and complete with the vendor... ive learned a valuable lesson the hard way... no the markings are not terrible, but what i got does seem to fit the description of what was advertised.... i know fully understand to ensure im getting what i hope to be getting i need to make sure to see actual images of the product, and not stock images and description.... yes looking over the book several more times, some might consider my original objections 'nit picking'.... but when i put out money expecting something and get a curve ball, even a small one, isnt exactly the easiest to handle... i made sure to step back, take my personal feelings out of it, and look at it strictly as a business transaction... did i get what the description said... yes.... was there wiggle room on the overall condition just saying Near Mint, yes, and know fully understand that.... ive attached zoomed out images of the front and back so all can see... i would still appreciate thoughts on what i could of done differently to handle this situation, so not only i learn, maybe someone else just reading learns too... Thank You-

i would really be awesome if someone from CGC could confirm the stance of grading with 'Foil Imperfections'

the response i got was can anyone confirm this stance? ive asked them if they would be willing to show me images of the books they 'have' with scuffs just like what my books have, to put my mind at ease, as i looked for same books with grades 9.6-9.8 and couldnt find any with markings like mine.... that way when i submit for grading i wont get dinged for the imperfections....

no returns, but backed by the ebay guarantee ive immediately reached out via ebay message earlier today moments after opening the box they condition they have listed thou is Brand New: A new, unread, unused book in perfect condition with no missing or damaged pages. See the seller’s listing for full details. this isnt perfect condition imo, im hoping to hear back, but im reaching out here to get other opinions on the matter.... IF i saw this in person, or they vendor used actual images i doubt i would of gotten this book, and kept looking, but its a reputable vendor, so i think ill get taken care of in the end... hopfully

just got a book today ebay delivery from a vendor using stock images stating it was Near Mint... there are some noticeable paint breaking scratches.... would that Near Mint status still be valid? or should i be requesting a replacement/refund? attached are the images of the book, they are easily feel-able as well i know Near Mint allows for some small imperfections, but color breaking marks?

I've got a few...

@Kevin Boyd I just saw that the BTTF Crew is now slated for MegaCon 2024, but i can only find info that there is a panel on Thursday.... the dates (Thurs? Fri? Sat? Sun?) and autograph options are not yet posted is there any way to get this info so i can make sure i get what i need... i was already going but now SUPER PUMPED!

good afternoon, i got an email just the other day from CGC about an upcoming signing event for a BRZRKR Comic and Mr. Reeves....i didnt see any other posts on the forum about this, so im asking here... as its not open to individuals, ive contacted my local stores, and they arent choosing to participate... that being said, i need to locate a retailer that is, that i can work with... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

call it morbid curiosity..... it may not be worth much, but its the very first comic i got with the intention of keeping it in the best condition i could and it would make me rich later!..... granted i might of only been like 10 back in 93' so what did i know..... in any event, ive kept it still in the bag, corners could of been kept better.... but for having it for 25 years.... just looking for thoughts on what this might grade out for if i were to send it in?
