To my amateur eyes, that looks pressable. I do see a white tick/tear in the mountains on the back cover center left. That's going to hold you down to 9.4±0.2 as an upper limit (probably 9.4). Maybe 9.0 as is.

Hello!! Allready talked to my presser and It seems Thats a pressable crunch.

The mountains its not  tear ( has to check twice 😅), its the image.

Without that what do you think?

Here are the photos with the book on hand. I think its better thank i tought.

I would give It a Solid 5.0.

Just waiting on the cómic to arrive and Will do a lote of photos!!

Hello!!

Could you please spare me a grade?

Do you think that corner crunch its pressable?

Thank you very much!!

Hello guys!!

Could you spare a grade?

Im thinking a 4.0.

Sorry for the bad quality photos, im waiting on the cómic to arrive.

Guys does this cómic looks the real deal?
For the price im able to get(1000$) It im afraid of being trimmed or Something...

Its from eBay, and the Seller only have 1 sale...

Hello!!
Just bought my grail, Marvel Spotlight 5, in an old cgc case (2005)in a 4.5.
The case IS that the top label IS missing.
The Seller IS a store, and they can do a full refund( the book was a deal). Or reslabb the book for me, for free.
My questions are...IS It normal that the old cases loose the top labels?
Would you get a refund or just reslabb the book?
Or just get the cost of reslabb as a refund or store credit?

For last, can CGC send a top label? Since in these old cases, that label goes on the outside?

Thank you very much!!

7.0/7.5.  That crease on the upper right corner is a grade killer.  Not sure what I’m seeing on the top edge of the front cover either...

Its like a strecht ares but its all attached at the back no tío at all...dont know how can be done, but its there.

Hello again, just gona post some more books, for the cummunity test their grading skills and for me to learn in the process.

It may get higher. Depends on the grader. The deep spine crease on the back and corner ding look more severe than than most.

Thank you very much!!

After a C&P i think at least the spine crease Will benifit from that.

We will ser what happens, Saw some YA1 getting some good grades with similar problems...

8.5 or a bit higher could be possible after a c&p. Worth a shot for this one but do a full c&p not just a quick press IMO.

Yes, i Will definitly do It, It should improve the spine ticks a lot.

I just wish there was a grading company in Europe...

Its very expensive to send the books, and wait forever for them to come back. So i just send the ones that have a shot.

Thank you once again.

The Answer is: 9.0

Thank you very much, being a grade above the 8.5 i would give it a shot at grading...

Hi, please read the guidelines. For the most accurate grading the book needs to be out of the bag. Take a photo of the front and back. Also any close up photos of any damage. Welcome to the boards! 

Sorry!! Newbie...

My Guess would be a 9.0?

Hello again, after trading my First copy without sending to cgc, i come here again asking for help of the experts.

Please grade this book, It has some stress marks on the spine, and minimal colour rub on the staples.

I would definitly clean and press the book before sending It.

If it is dry (like something dry and crusty that you can feel has texture), sure it can come off. Youtube has plenty of people doing stuff like that. .Practice on junk comics then go for it. Or have someone who is pro do it. 

Thats exactly how It feels, dry and crusty. Im afraid of doing It myself, since the book is in quité good shape. I Will try to get it to a profesional. Not easy tough living in Spain...

If it is dry and superficial, Absorene may lift it off, but you would want to be careful. Most professional pressers offer a dry clean service as well and would be able to give you a better assessment.

Thank you very much for your response.

Yes its dry and it seems superficial since It didnt came through the front cover to the pages. I Will try to get an assessment from a profesional before doing anything.

Are you seeing double?

Not a key, btw.

Sorry!!

And thank you, in my defense i said a semi Key! 😂

Thank you very much for all the responses, its better than i tought then 😁.

I was thinking on selling It to get a better slabed copy. But i Will keep this bad boy to flip through the pages and get a better grade slab once i can.

Is it rough-feeling or sticky?  Or is it ingrained into the paper, that you can tell? 

Is dry and It feels that it would come of if i scratched It a bit(Will not do It of course).
