CGC sale on reslabbing of competitors slabs

[StarBrand]

CGC is offering 50% to reslab books encapsulated by competitors. Anyone have further info on this?

Interesting business tactic.

Interesting business tactic.

Doesn't look like it makes sense for modern books. Minimum cost is $32.50 for a Standard level CGC crossover.

Maybe they mean half of the 32.50 fee since normal standard is 37$?

I received an email from CGC on this and my immediate reaction was that of Greg’s. That and what about SS? I also have found in the CBCS slabs I own, that the grading does not comport to CGCs higher standards and consistency. I have had a few CBCS 9.8s that look like 9.2 or 9.4 at best. Therefore, I’m pretty concerned that my grading might go down with CGC.

Interesting. I’ve not heard a knock on CBCS’ grading standards before. I’m not on the CGC boards though.
