My Wolverine 145 Bone Claws and Spidey 375 white cover both got a blue label and I don't think I will ever recase them.

 

Definitely don't send those back, or they'll be transformed into Qualified in the blink of an eye. foreheadslap.gif

Good idea...I'm going to go peel all the holograms off my copies. thumbsup2.gif

confused-smiley-013.gif I've done it. If I hadn't been so careless right at the end and ripped that piece out of the cover, you wouldn't be able to tell it ever had the hologram. I had wondered about the holograms since Taste_of_H8red was asking about Wolverine 75s some time ago. I had some X-Factor 92s with badly rusted staples (guess I didn't notice the staples while I was cramming that $30 longbox full foreheadslap.gifconfused-smiley-013.gif), so I decided to see how well the holograms came off. It's not too hard, you just have to be careful and very patient.

Wow! I had been told that removing the holograms without damaging the cover was impossible and would leave behind a trace of glue on the cover.

Wow! I had been told that removing the holograms without damaging the cover was impossible not impossible, but it's not easy and would leave behind a trace of glue on the cover. maybe, but nothing you can feel or see under regular lighting conditions

 

I'm sure there are legitimate manufacturing error copies out there, and I'm sure that CGC takes whatever steps are available to them to determine their authenticity, but if these sell for a huge premium over regular copies, it's only a matter of time before the manipulators go to work.
