SpotOn Grading Systems, or SGS, is a series of short, multiple choice questions enabling you to grade your comic books on-the-spot and accurately, within seconds. SGS grades are comparable to the third party grading companies such as CGC, CBCS, etc. Some of the highlights of the app are: • All books you've graded are kept in a list on your account allowing you to review your past books and grades. • You’ll have an idea whether your book would receive a Qualified or Restored label. • Multiple choice questions are simple and easy follow and are broken down into different categories of the book’s areas. • Answers are simple and have examples of everyday items to use as examples of size comparison. • A YouTube video tutorial is available to teach you situations and examples you wouldn’t normally have standard knowledge of. Unlimited Grading for One Year: The subscription fee for unlimited comic book gradings for 1 year will be $14.99/year. If you decide to subscribe, payment will be charged to your iTunes Account upon confirming your purchase. The $14.99/year subscription fee will automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off in your App Store Account Settings. To avoid being billed for a subsequent year, you must turn off auto-renewal at least 24-hours before the end of the current period. You can manage your subscription by going to your App Store Account Settings after purchase. If you decide to leave auto-renewal on, you will be charged $14.99/year for renewing your subscription to unlimited grading within 24-hours prior to the end of the current period. Any unused portion of your free grading trial will be forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
