When I first acquired my comic books as a little boy, I hardly looked at them, and they were well stored in a sturdy comic box, with acid-free backers and bags, in a climate-controlled safe and stress-free environment. When I got my comics back from my first grading, I was shocked to see that they had been given 8.0 grades. There had been nothing done to warrant such a mark. I am sorry that I had to be a paid member to get express servicing done but it will be the last time I do so. Lann I’m gonna side with the OP on this one. It’s easy to say a newcomer here doesn’t know how to grade. However these books were in climate controlled storage in acid free bags and boards in a stress free environment. It all equals 9.8s for me whenever things get stressful at my house with the mother in law, I immediately move my comics and I believe it helps with getting 9.8s If a comic isn’t 9.8 it’s sh*t. Plain and simple. OP you were robbed. Have you tried PGX? Don’t settle for 8.0s for the simple fact that these comics WERE 9.8s! I believe CGC and the losers here are purposely devaluing your comics so you’ll sell em on the cheap. Don’t fall for this scam. This hobby is ruthless .

aszumilo Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 The only way to get full 9.8 value for the books, is to crack them out. Then list them on E-Bay as "Raw 9.8 - CGC IT!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snobbish and pretentious. And just how is a Brit supposed to keep the proverbial "stiff upper lip", or a "stiff upper anything", for that matter, when he's still hyphenating his last name with his maiden name?

theCapraAegagrus Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Dranzer must have graded Lanny's books. Dranzer's inconsistency is legendary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
