4 Coupon books have returned

After some consternation about their whereabouts, my 4 collectors society coupon books are safely back home. And with the change from 4 standard books to 150 dollar credit with the coupon, this might be my last submittal for a while. I dropped these books off at ECCC on Mar 27 and they shipped back on Apr 23rd. Had a tough time figuring out which 4 to choose. Most of the no brainers have already been slabbed ?and ?now i?'m? just trying to choose between 40 or 50 similarly valued books. So I tried to pick the books I thought would bring back the best grades. My self-grading definitely turned out to be hit and miss.

As I've mentioned in the past, as a kid I was always much more fixated on completeness rather than high grades, so one of my main goals was to get all of the new X-men books and as many of the original team books as I could afford. Three of these 4 are part of that effort. The 4th book was one that may have been passed down from my brother and was in rather good shape and turns out to be pretty relevant to some small movie you might have heard of...

In defense of my mediocre grading, I only graded by looking at the front and back covers. Here are my grades...

X-men 4 - 5.5

X-men 12 - 7.0

X-men 94 - 6.5

Avengers 57 - 7.5

So ?my grading? was kind of all over the place. ?While ?happy about my pessimism on two of the books and only really disappointed about the X-men 4 but looking at it now I can see that there is quite a bit of front and back cover creasing.
