  1. Just got this nice book! Just wondering what opinions are? It is nicer than I expected!
  2. I did not know that but for future use thank you! The back cover presents far better in hand. No stain in LLC. The apparent soiling along the spine is ink from when the book was manufatured. Yes there is a 1/8" tear at the bottom staple. Light rub at top staple.
  3. OK, I have added some pics. You can see the lower right corner which shows much less in hand than the close up. Also, you will see two ever so slight spine ticks. One is in the indicia at the very bottom of Thors cape. The other is on the red of his cape just below his hammer. Other than that the spine is pretty flawless as is the rest of the book other than what I just mentioned. I own 8.0/8.5 books that show fat worse than this book does. I was shocked this was given a 7.0. Again I own 7.0's with so many more and noticeable flaws than this book.
  4. I think signatures and written dates as well as date stamps DOES NOT affect the grade on these old books, especially if it is not horribly intrusiveness and this one is not. I would not risk damaging the book and it won't change the grade IMO.
  5. I was hoping at least an 8.5 when I sent it in. It's a gorgeous copy. It came back ... 7.0! I also had a Batman #227 that I was hoping the same. Even the CBCS rep at the convention where I submitted them looked at it and said, "wow, that looks like a pretty nice VF copy!" It came back at 6.0? I am thinking I need to break these open and send them to CGC. There were others too and they seem to grade awfully harsh and even a little unreasonable. I have never been that far off with the CGC books I send in. In fact we are incredibly close or spot on!
  6. 6.0/6.5. but I believe a press would do wonders for this one!
  7. Already been graded! Wondering what you folks think it got? First pic is camera, second two are scans. Thanks
  8. What happened to everyone scanning the front and back cover in its entirety? These chopped pics make it harder! I think you have a 9.2 there IMHO...
  9. I am thinking 2.5 at best. It has been my experience that PGX is much more lenient on lower grade books. Are you not going to divulge the grade it was given?
  10. Definitely should have taken them out. NO WAT for us to tell. Guessing could be anywhere from 8.5 - 9.6?
