Loose leaf paper

A press will not fix color breaks... can't fix what's not there. Have you checked with the seller to ask if the book had already been pressed? There is a chance that a press may be able to clean up the stress lines, but without seeing the book really can't say if it would help.... I just got a book back, that had been pressed & cleaned, with notes of "very light spine stress lines breaks color" and got a 9.2 ... so notes may not tell the whole story.

I appreciate your detailed response as opposed to a passive aggressive noob comment from keyboard warrior up there.

I purchased this 2 years ago from a high volume dealer so I am past the point of being able to inquire.  You can barely see the lines and they are on the back.  I'm also wondering if there is a chance that they re-grade it and it comes back better...I suppose the opposite could happen as well.

I have a 9.4 ASM 300 I am considering sending in.  I paid for the grader notes and they say: “spine stress lines spine breaks color”.   The only way I could see them was using my phone flashlight and they are very tiny.  Is this something a press and clean could help?  Wondering if it’s worth the extra $20 for the potential of a grade bump. I’ve never send in a book for grading so please excuse my question if it’s stupid. 

Hope this is ok to post....I had a package with Hulk 180-182 go missing/stolen in the Philly area. It's been gone for a week and a half and I'm not optimistic that it will show up.  Long story short, it was sent certified/registered/insured with a signature required but the mailman at my wife's office building was too lazy to walk it up to her office so he signed for it himself and marked it as "Left with individual" in spite of simply stuffing it into their mailbox.  It was never in the box.  The carrier has been cooperating but at this point, all I can do is file a claim.  Unfortunately the odds of replacing the group below for $1500 are very slim.  

Would really appreciate a heads up if you come across them in your comic searching.  I monitor eBay many times a day and I alerted local comic shops.
