  1. 6.0. they are going to ding you for the stains on the back and slight tanning. nice book otherwise
  2. 2.5. rusty staple. piece missing from back
  3. 7.5. Edge wear on front cover by "origin" and back cover, right side.
  4. Agree. Racism has nothing to do with it. She's just a poor actress. The story just comes to a stop every time she forces her overdramatic lines.
  5. I actually thought the mole man was Seth Rogen. Was surprised it was Braff.
  6. The hardest part about grading is being tough on your own books. You tend to fall in love with it and as a result you will end up overpaying. If you are tough on your own stuff, you’ll learn to apply that to books you are considering buying. That’s when you get value out of buying raw.
  7. 2.0 i don't think a press will make much difference on the grade. might help it aesthetically.
  8. concur. looks 9.6 or better. very nice!
  9. 4.5 because of the water stains. i would definitely send it to a professional to press and fix the spine roll. maybe 5.0 thereafter
  10. holy smokes, that sally forth. nice find! have yet to ever see that in person, much less acquire one.
  11. I'm of the thinking to keep the AF no matter what. But along this reasoning, why not sell the Hulk and use the proceeds to buy a blue AF? Then you can go about selling the purple AF, which basically upgraded your overall situation. MIght take some time, but now is a good time, since prices have dipped somewhat.
  12. anyone got the covers for the Who's Who issues so I can be on the lookout? usually when i see these in the collections i buy, it goes straight to the bin...the garbage bin.
  13. 6.0 with a good press. your description makes it sound worse than it is. i don't see any major flaws, a pretty nice book.
  14. 8.5, due to upper crease. if you can get that out, obviously it will bump up.
  15. On the back next to the small Top Secret video game picture, bottom right corner. There looks to be an oil blotch of some sort, near the staple. Also, I can't tell too easily on the front, but the back has numerous spine ticks. non color breaking or not, these aren't easy to get out. I generally assume you won't them all out, you may be lucky just to get a few. my guess was fairly conservative, but i think without the oil spot it's a 9.2. with it, 8.5 press or no press, i don't think you'll get to even a 9.4. the back over is all black and every little defect shows up there.
  16. 8.5. numerous spine ticks and looks like an oil spot of some sort on the back near the spine.
  17. 5.0. they're gonna bring down a few notches because of the mold, mildew and water damage. nice book from the front though
