  1. Cover seems to be in the fine range, but the back cover only in the very good. So I guess 4.5-5.0
  2. For me the staple looks new. Together with the tape and the other flaws 2.5-3.0.
  3. Two of my sources mention that subscription creases are allowed in the fine range. The light background (light blue and yellow) really helps to hide it, so on these photos, it's barely perceptible, except the red portions. Since I expect it to be somewhat more noticeable in Real World, I guess 5.5-6.0. Would be around 6.5 if the crease was as tenuous as it appears in these photos
  4. It's similar to the number 12, but the overall condition of this one here is better, since the there is no dust shadow and the right corner. If the other is 2.0-2.5, this one here should be 2.5-3.0.
  5. One of my three sources mention that 1.5 to 2 inches splits as enough to put in good range, so following it, I give it 2.5 since there are other flaws, perhaps 2.0
  6. For me the main issue is the reasonable amount of soiling on the back cover. Far from sure how much that would impact an official evaluation, my guess is 8.5-9.0, with the last being my main guess.
  7. Well, in the end, the winner will always be the one who is the writer's favorite character (as long the editor allows!) I also have the Brazilian version of this Tales of Suspense and love it too.
  8. 2.5-3.5, Hard to say because the colored panels are an unusual defect and so many marks are not that common either. P.S: I think the colored panel looks great!
  9. 5.0-5.5. Not to mention that there discrepancies in grading standards of different places. The cover detached from a staple normally sets a comic in the VG range, but some allow it to be in the fine range. The Germans have their own grading system that might be more precise. It works on descending order, with a 0 being a perfect comic book.
  10. Can you explain it in more details please?
  11. Is there also a missing piece in the top right corner? If so, I will go with 4.5, perhaps 5.0
  12. Since the missing piece seems to be fairly large (its width is about one inch?) and my references usually mention missing pieces of 1/4 to 1/8 of an inch in the fine range, I will go with 6.0 since the rest of the comic is in excellent shape. P.S: I believe its better to not leave your personal opinion about the grade in the first message, as to avoid influencing others.
  13. Hard to say, not sure of how much the imperfect superior staple affects it, but my guess would be 7.0-7.5. P.S, better do not put your opinion on the first post, as it can affect others opinions.
  14. There is a button that probably says in English "see original item" that will take you to the bidding post
  15. I guess it's on the good range due to the big missing pieces. I go with 2.5 since the back cover has a few issues and the cover's missing area is big.
  16. I go with 3.0 if only due to the detached covers. Perhaps 2.5
  17. I guess the two big issues with this CB are the stains and the damage on the lower corners of the back cover.
  18. If you are sure it won't damage the back cover... My guess is around 4.0, hard to say, without being able to see the hole in details
