i guess you reach a point and say what the heck, pick the best one and hope for the best.
All the copies at my LCS had ink smudges on the back (on the white lettering for the image expo). I'll check the spine, but I thought that the spines looked fine. Did anyone else have issues with smudging?

now that you mention it...i have a smudge in the E of Expo on 2 of the best ones i picked out.
for the crease hold it in the light and look to the left and down of the names..near the gray/cream line.
Also you may find creases on the back cover even though they don't transfer to the front.

What part of Ohio are you in, I will check around Wednesday in my area to see if any of my LCS have some HG copies.

Is there a way to SEND in raw copies to CGC and they get them signed and slabbed under a SS label? Is that a service of CGC? Had no idea if that's the case.

The CGC doesn't do it but there are people called Facilitators who does it for a fee. Desert Winds generally comes to mind.
Anyhow, I love the cover on Thief of Thieves and ordered one off Ebay.
