well i had sent out my own comic to get cgc'd back in march, and i recieved it today. Most of the time i buy books that are already cgc'd. This is the first book of my own collection that i sent out to get graded. A good friend of mine purchased wolverine: origins #2 canadian variant (1 for 100) for me as a wedding,new house, bday gift. Which was pregraded by cgc with a 9.6.. I had already owned the same issue with the original cover so i thought it would be a neat idea to have this one graded as well to display them both. I was hoping to get the same grade as the canadian variant. I got the issue back today and it was a 8.5.. Not a big deal. It is still very cool. Least now the issue will be 8.5 forever haha, it wont get any worse. It still was a very good experiance, and i hope to send more of my own collection to get graded. At least now i know what to look for in my seems, corners etc before sending them out. thanks for reading
Sorry, though, about your grade. That's a bit of a drop from a 9.6 to a 8.5. Have you thought about ordering the grader's notes to get a more detailed look as to why it came back at that grade?

Did you pay to have the book pass at a pregraded 9.6 level?

I do not understand that - I was under the assumption that the pre-screening process was basically to screen books for a fee to see if they would qualify at least as a 9.6. If the book did not qualify as at least a 9.6 then the book would go no further in the grading process, thus saving some of the money.
Am I correct here?
