You can't blow up pictures to max size and scrutinize the defects and accurately assess the grade because the book is not that size in real life (and nor are the defects). At arms length those defects look very differently than they do magnified on a digital device.

EXCELLENT advice.

I'll have to keep this in mind - I tend to "zoom & examine" quite often. We're buying books, not pictures.

Judging from your post count you've been here since the dawn of time. You have my undivided attention

There are books that are listed as eights I have doubles of too.Maybe 'cause i'm the only one looking or cares!  

I think there's some truth to this - if one is not paying attention they can miss out on a lot

I'm not saying it's not an 8. Stranger things have happened. Maybe I just lucked out

There was one on the bay about a month ago - did you snag it?

Even if it is a "strike" system or short-term ban or something of that nature?

I think eBay will limit bad bidders but I'm not sure they've ever suspended anyone indefinitely

This cover literally has nothing weird spooky or supernatural going for it. A black cat? Yeah okay.
