Oh and CAK how I love you stating that I wouldn't say the I've been saying to your face. I'd absolutely LOVE the opportunity to say what a troll you are to your face. It would make my day. You better call me,I'll be over in a jiffy.Sick as I've been,I'd still NEVER say something I wasn't prepared to back up in real life time. Like ,if CUK was here right now,I'd say,CAK,eat a Mexican snoodle,I'd say.And I'd wait for him to google it and explode in a homophobic rage,and I'd laugh,and laff and giggle. CAK,besides how frighteningly and dangerously lame and puerile you are,you don't scare me. And for all these libels you mention...have you been hanging out with fellow comic cretin Gerry Ross?That's a fave of his. I'm likely the last to chime in on this,but as an old woman said while pissing in the sea-every little bit helps. Please do not engage me in your posting. I do not know you, and you do not know me. I do not care for your tone, there is no reason for you to engage with me on this board, other than for your own pleasure of acting as a troll. Kindly stop. Thank You.

I have no desire to meet you in person, no desire to have anything to do with an individual like yourself, at all. Point being that you surely would not walk up to me in person and say " you", "you're " and so on. Not a single one of you lot would throw these insults to me, in person. I just died and laughed so hard I was brought back to life from hell to laugh more I can't believe it keeps getting funnier and funnier. CAK,you're the type of person that if we met I'd likely end up back in prison because you'd call the cops and a wah wah wahmbulance so fast you'd bust a finger and point said busted finger at me crying and lying saying I'd done it.Keyboard warriors like yourself calling others what you really are...the way you represent yourself really makes me think you haven't lived much in the 'real' world,where your goof mouth would get you into trouble you couldn't snake out of with threats of libel and denials. I did not see this before creating my last post. So, you have spent some time in prison. I do not k now what that has to do with me, nor do I want to know. That said, I am making use of the block user function on this board (under your user ID) after I finish this post. Kindly, do the same in return. Thank You.

I read somewhere that pressing is not always permanent, it can resort back to its Pre pressing state over a short period of time... Is this Correct?

If done incorrectly, there's no doubt it can revert. I also believe to a lesser degree it is possible in certain situations when done 'correctly'. That might depend on the nature of the bend needing a press. It could certainly explain why we sometimes see 9.2's with a 9.8 label.

That's messed up! I am so bewildered when I hear others on message boards talking about pressing their 9.4 copy in hopes of getting a possible 9.6, etc!! I was watching a YouTube video awhile back and this couple sent some comics into cgc for grading and one comic came back with a 9.2 and the lady says "I'm not happy with this grade, going to press it again and resubmit it"...UGH! I think high grades should be left alone.

Some people would save a ton af cash if they put serious effort in learning to grade for themselves, even if slabbing is still their intent. Someone who knows how to grade probably would have known if a clean and press could nab a higher grade, and a resub wouldn't be needed, saving money. Oh well, it's their money.

Wise words for collecting of anything. There is an upside for me, though, to collectors that don't know how to grade.

It is usually the result of pressing that does not involve water of some sort. There is a level of "plasticity" in wood pulp, and without , in my opinion and experience, rearrangement on the cellular level (by filling said wood pulp cells with water), then those bends, creases, etc. will return, because the underlying problem wasn't addressed. "Squashing" comics, which is what some pressers try, has bad, bad effects...usually at the staple area. Squashing may force the wood pulp cells to behave the way you want them to, but it comes with unintended side effects you do not want, because you're not dealing with 2 dimensions...you are dealing with 3.

Agree. And even then, there can be some underlying damage which hydration can't address. An example would be a hard crease in a white area that normally would be color-breaking, but after pressing is almost undetectable, even under magnification (the crease edges match up almost perfectly using hydration, heat, and pressure). Yet, in hand, that area is easily discovered because the area is weak due to the underlying cellular damage. Sometimes you'll have an encapsulated pressed book that looks great in the case, but then you break it out and discover an entire corner of the cover that flops down under gravity when it's lifted.

Too many collectors are just interested in the number at the top of the case. I wonder how many time-bombs are waiting to explode in their hands. Besides reverting back, what about the ones that were overheated and will turn brittle or the ones that were over-hydrated that will become wavy with rusty staples? Too many amateur pressers armed with a lot of misinformation being spread around the internet. I don't care what you do to your own comics, but I'm afraid a lot of these make their way to the marketplace.
