    Check for any color loss due to rubs on front and back. CGC has become very harsh on those especially on Copper and Modern.

    No color rubs or color breaks or anything when they were sent in.  These books were clean AF.  I have turned in two different 9.8 Edge of Spider-Verse 2s, variant and regular and a couple other high end books that came back 9.8 and I was most excited about these two because they were that CLEAN.  I think it's a joke that CGC makes you pay for the grader notes.  Tell me what is wrong with the book if I am going to pay you $35 for your service if it is below a 9.8.  Way too subjective for 9.4 to 9.8.

  2. I am pretty bummed about what I think are two mis-graded comics.  One was graded at a 9.4 and the other a 9.6.  They aren't the most valuable books in the world but they are the two nicest books that I have sent in, I was actually thinking if I ever get above a 9.8 it would be from one of those two. CLEAN books with immaculate spines, no typical wear from shipping, great staples, and clean sharp corners.  I haven't seen them yet to know if it is from awful presses but has anyone ever sent the same book back in and gotten a higher grade?

    Anyone have any advice in the future with books like that?  I mean both of them had NO wear on the spines when I sent them in.  Is it better to just send a book like this straight to CGC to have it graded and not get it pressed?
