New here and Just want to say that I am excited to hopefully participate in this grading Contest!

Fair enough...let's get a discussion going.

When did you first reach out to SB?

Let's allow for some benefit of the doubt. It's only been a few days.

Count me in as another one time only user. Ordered my first book on there four days ago. It hasn’t moved. No communication is possible with the seller and the “customer support” to the only two email addresses posted has ignored my emails.
 

There is no phone number or contact form, or any online record of communications. My grandmother has a better customer support  interface for her yarn company.  

My next step is to file a complaint with my credit card company. If you can’t respond to customers, you should not be taking their money. 
 

I tried. Terrible first experience means I’ll take my business elsewhere. Happily there are plenty of other options.

Thought it had a shot at 7.5 but it came back the same. 7.0. Got the pedigree label.

presents like a champ

I’d say it’s more like 2.75 imperfections 😂. Does that make a difference?

seems 9.6 to me
a 9.8 modern book can have 1-2 "tiny" imperfections

this copy has at least these 3 imperfections

the seller "should" price this raw copy at vg/fn to fine-

So you found it then? At a price of £89GBP ($111) he's asking for a "FN" price but it's not for me. I do not like "chipping" personally.

you could find a fine copy that presents better

no
fine range imho...additional pics would help

need more info regarding the specific book and how you determined your estimate

@CGC Mike, with all due respect, this question from "Management" is totally inappropriate and should never have been asked.  It makes "Management" look like total weasel-like clowns.

Let's assume for the sake of argument that the top-right corner was severely compromised.  Shouldn't whoever was handling the book when this large chunk detached have contacted their supervisor to document the problem and ask for guidance?  Shouldn't the supervisor then have contacted @Dinohin22 to alert him to this issue and ask whether he still wanted to have the book graded?  Shouldn't each of those contacts be noted in this book's digital record?  And where is the missing chunk?

What am I missing here?    Please help me understand why Management's question is appropriate.
