  1. I kind of had a hard time following it all myself. But pretty sure it was your scenario one. Which, if so, we agree is OK. I think. I'm just glad to know I'm not the only insomniac out there.
  2. So...if I was the buyer and found the same book at a lower price afterwards it would be OK to ask the seller to buy it back from me as long as I covered shipping?
  3. I don't get that either. He did pay the asking price, right? If the seller had sold it at a lower price based on his stated desire to "love it and keep it forever and call it George", then ehh... maybe I can see his viewpoint. Even then you do a person a favor at your own risk. But if he paid the asking price (that's my understanding) he should be able to do whatever he wants without any apologies. Burn it in his fireplace. Use it for toiler paper. Whatever. If the seller sold it for too low a price, that's on him.
  4. Am I missing something? A person put up a book for sale. Another person purchased that book at the asking price. He then sold the book that he now owned for a profit. Am I wrong on how all this went down?
  5. 9.0 as is. No idea on what a C&P would do.
  6. Wow. .5 seems awfully harsh. I thought that was reserved for books with entire page(s) missing.
  7. Well this should be fun. I not only get to embarrass myself by going first, but doubly so since it's already been graded and my ineptitude will soon be confirmed. I'm saying either an 8.0 or 8.5. How much to deduct for the stain on the back cover... go with an 8.0.
  8. The 6.5 is gruesome to me. Had hoped for a bit higher. Thanks to you Deadpoolica for the input.
  9. I'm guessing misting it with a water bottle before I take it into my $7 presser will not provide the same result.
  10. Humidity chamber? Wow. I know even less about pressing that I thought. I have a roughly $50 book I was going to get pressed by the local comic store than only charges $7. I may want to reconsider that.
  11. I guess I slightly did. It's larger than normal size comic books. Uploaded additional images that might (or not) help.
  12. Most definitely. But I don't have a lot of experience with pressing so I couldn't say how much. Hopefully people with more knowledge will chime in here.
  13. Because I don't think a press will fix a lot of those defects, I'm saying 6.0.
  14. 5.5. I wouldn't pay for a C&P unless the book appreciates later on.
