Misquote or does he really believe it? Agree or disagree?
Which one will go highest tonight? A1 or T27 ...
the A1 should kill a 3 sided trimmed tec27... if both were equal grades,the A1 would still win (imo)
Considered how the T27 in question actually fills out the inner well in a "normal" way, it must be micro-micro trim.
its not noted as "cover" trimmed, but "edges"...that typically means interior book trimmed too...
The C-cnect Action 1 (mod 7.0) was clearly the better book relative to the triple trimmed tec27 (mod 8.0).
Yet they roughly hammered out at 140K and 170K, with "only" a 30K margin. What does that indicate to you as regards the reciprocal strength of the big two?
Is action still a hair above when this sale is considered?
The action closed about 50k higher than anticipated and the Tec about 40k higher. Both books are strong but action 1 is still king.
Rick, the Action 1 CC 7.0 mod presents well, but the interior enlightened (depending how much was done) is somewhat a big factor? Regardless, those are strong prices for the BIG two.
didn't bother me...interior lightening is just chemically cleaning the pages....it will still outlast us all (thumbs u
Not worried that it can promote rusty staples?
I've owned a lot of interior lightened comics and never had any staple issues... oxygen and water/moisture cause rust...
I would think a book would be totally disassembled to have pages lightened and well dried/pressed before it was put back together again so I wouldn't worry about rust. IIRC West has said that the process used to lighten pages does cause the pages harm and they will deteriorate faster. How fast, I don't know. I own one book with lightened pages and I haven't cracked it out yet.
