I guess it is kind of a subjective term. I, personally, was thinking 1000s. (think I'm in the ballpark?)

Yes, I realize CGC has weighed the pros and cons of fixing this issue, and decided it's financially better (for them) to let it slide. But they have acceptable standards (so they say). I was just wondering why so many (there's that term again) are outside of those acceptable standards.

Man, I have no idea tbh. But it can't be good publicity.

I've bought a number of books slabbed from the past couple years off ebay with no rings.  Hopefully it stays that way :wishluck:

If I have some slabs that have fairly egregious newton rings, does CGC offer any type of reholdering program that is cheaper than regular slabbing? 

Yes. Email submissions@cgccomics.com with pictures and how many slabs, and they should cover shipping there and reholdering at no charge.
