CGC - Please stop mislabeling some Vengeance of Vampirella #1 Green Foil covers as Royal Blue Edition 1 1

[Darkga]

I'm sorry to have to call you to the carpet, but this is the second time I have seen this in the wild (the other is certificate# 2036684017). This one was on eBay a few weeks back, and I notified the seller that what he was selling was not labeled correctly. How do I know, you may ask? Well, I own all four covers (see the last picture).

 

These are my copies here.

I do see how they could have made this mistake...

Yes, it's a very nuanced difference. However the price difference of Royal Blue vs Green is at least 10 to 1, so if someone bought that eBay example they would have been sorely disappointed.

I see. Amazing there's such a difference just because of a slight variation in color. This sounds like information that should be shared with the CGC verification team...

Yeah, there were only 100 of the Royal Blue printed as opposed to the 10's of thousands of the Green. Below is a link with some slightly outdated info (there is some debate as to whether it was an accident), but it gives you the gist.

Interesting information. Thank you! Hopefully CGC's verification team will straighten this out...

I was gonna say, some people are colorblind. My best friend and my younger brother both have problems with blues and purples.

And here is yet another example that I just found today. At this point I believe the census on the Royal Blue Edition has really been compromised.
