| This is the one thing I absolutely HATE! about ebay title searches. The "used car salesman" of ebay love to put "not CGC" in their listings so it comes up in a CGC title search. For God sakes we know its not a CGC book and isn't 99.999999% of all comics CGC ready? Whats a comic that isn't CGC ready? Has it not found a date for the prom yet? I'm so sick of the all the shady *** comic dealers on ebay trying make that extra $0.65 on there over graded book. COUGH milehigh COUGH.

I would throw out that term when listing certain auctions. However, I only used it when the book was an unusaully high grade and certainly worth CGCing. I wouldnt just throw it out there all the time to increase views. I see your point on this, but really only on books that would have no buisness being professionally graded.

I think the only reason CGC should be in title is if it is a CGC. Those ones that say "not CGC" I wont even look at

| If you are auctioning a book that is NOT CGC and you use the term in the title, you are actually in violation of ebay policies. It's a term called "Key word spamming". Like when someone is selling a pair of Adidias shoes and they put in the title NOT NIKE or whatever....they are using keywords that don't involve their auction to get more views. If you click on one of these auctions and REPORT it to ebay...they will pull it. Problem is...even if a seller has 1000 of them listed...you have to report all 1000 of them otherwise ebay will only pull the ones you report......speaking from experience here (as a buyer and as a seller). I put the term "Like new" in my title...and it got pulled. The keyword spam is "new". Ebay told me I had to say "barely used" or "hardly used", but I could not call anything "like new" in the title. Ebay really pisses me off sometimes.

I saw a Crow action figure FS on eBay last week that had "CGC" right at the end of the auction's title.
Needless to say, I reported it and eBay made them change the title.
