Hopefully they’re testing by comparing it to actual color palettes on paper next to it, not dependent on the lights and their eyes.

Well you can all rest easy. I am marking myself safe from CGC-gate 2023/24
I was surprised by the number of ASM #194s involved. For the most parts, books that would make sense for them to manipulate are on that list.
Would suck to have one of those books and deal with that mess. Shame…
Phew… I can rest easy now knowing that anyone who wants to can go back to swapping out books can do so

Those ASM 300’s though.

All the issues this person targeted I own are in CBCS holders.
The other thing is that CGC likely will not compensate the swaps that did not pass back through them for reholders. Any straight-up swaps that did not go back through them technically were not a “failure” on their part.

Time to start reading the posts in the CGC forum every 30 seconds.
It was dwindling to only 1 every 2 minutes for awhile.
I look forward to reading how everyone is put at ease now

Lmao if anyone truly believes that only 350 out of 85 million collectibles were tampered with, please send that person my way. I have some amazing beach-front property in Nebraska that I would love to sell them.

I did not know that!
But I do know it’s falling down
This is good video about everything CGC missed on the reholder scandal. incredible how none of these things raised any red flags at CGC. Including submitting over 50 spiderman #194 all CGC 9.8 and over 100 spiderman #300 all 9.6 or 9.8, all which were reholdered.

Good thing my ASM 300 is CBCS and an old case and label at that.

I still have three copies of ASM #194 and #300 that I bought decades ago. I haven’t gotten any of the #194 graded yet but the 300’s were graded almost a decade ago. Sending books I have owned for a while shouldn’t be an issue because I know what is wrong with them if anything. However, it is going to be difficult buying any high grade/high priced CGC books moving forward. I liked buying CGC to “guarantee” there is no trimming or restoration but now my faith in them is shaken big time. How many restoration checks were done too quickly or lazy? I’m sure there are more issues going on than this recent scandal.
