  1. Would you personally slab something like this due to the center page detactment or is it too low grade?
  2. Nicer copy I picked up. Tight staples. Only thing is some staining in the corner inside cover and back cover. Should I press?
  3. Nice, so the buyer must have gotten screwed.
  4. Yes, CBCS missing CT is the same but if the Restored copy sold first, the buyer really made a ton of money. If the the universal sold first, then that buyer lost a lot of money.
  5. The story is very different depending on which sold first...
  6. When you mean page count, I just check sequential numbers are there till the letters section? Or physically count the pages? How many should I expect in silver age books? I typically only buy modern, so this is the first time I've started buying silver age stuff.
  7. Thanks, that's what I'm starting to lean towards. I think its just glued at the staples.
  8. start a new account and see if you start getting them?
  9. I never get this. I"m opening a new ebay account now.
  10. Could I get a cheaper one like this? https://www.amazon.com/SE-MJ37801L-Professional-Quality-LED-Illuminated/dp/B002E0MU7U/ref=sr_1_7?crid=4GN22485FEJD&keywords=belomo+10x+triplet+loupe&qid=1564341866&s=gateway&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&sprefix=Belomo+%2Caps%2C317&sr=8-7#customerReviews
  11. No, but I'm looking at one on amazon right now. Should I buy the 10x Belomo ?
  12. Yeah, I guess I'll just read through the restoration thread that's stickeyed. What do you find is the most common restoration? color touch?
  13. Yeah, I doubt he knew. I assume restoration are most prevalent in silver and golden age books?
  14. I guess, from now one I need to look at every raw silver age book I buy very carefully. What do you usually check for?
  15. I know, me too. I will ask the seller. Makes me worried about the other stuff I bought from him but don't see anything else off on those..
  16. Very helpful info. I actually found glue at the staples and a tape. I think something funny has been done with this. The v shape is there. And you are right about the distribution ink
