  1. Hello comic fam! Happy new year! I need help grading my book… The front of the book presents pretty well.(some edge wear at edges along with several spine ticks) The smooth FC is free of serious creases and is dimple free. . The obvious issues is on back cover: presence of moisture damage, dirt and rust migration from staples. The paper quality is surprisingly good considering the rust situation. Any input is appreciated! Thanks in advance!
  2. ^^^I’ve seen slabbed books online with similar tanning graded an 8.0… interesting case….
  3. Thanks for the feedback guys.. my buddy thought the book was in the 5.0-6.0 range. But I wasn’t any closer to what seems to be the consensus so far. I thought 7.5-8.0ish.. again thank you and keep the grades coming!
  4. Hey guys, can you please grade my ASM 38. The book has smooth covers with no creasing. The corners are sharp. The book does have a few small spine ticks (mostly non colour breaking). The reason I bring it up is a buddy and me we’re way off each other’s grade range. Any feedback would be appreciated!
  5. Hi guys, I just got a copy of Tales of Suspense #98. It has a subscription crease and I’ve always had a tough time judging what that does to a book’s grade. Online research has left me more confused! 😂 anyhow, I’d love your feedback.. thanks in advance!
  6. I may be missing something but I can’t find which set to put this comic under: The Nice House On The Lake #1 cert. # 3917942014 (I checked in Sets starting with “T”, “N”, and “L”…. Can you kindly direct me to the set of it does exists? Forgive my blindness and thanks in advance! 😉
  7. Luckily it only affects the cover. thanks for the feedback guys!
  8. What grade do you guys give this book. Normally I believe it would grade around a 7.5-8.0. But I have no idea how the tear on the top back cover affects the book. Any input would be appreciated..
  9. Thanks guys. I may just go with the average of all the grades given! 😂
  10. Guys, your opinions would be greatly appreciated. 😉
  11. Thanks for your input. I figured this would be a tough one and judging by the views and lack of posts, I guess I was right... 😂
  12. The book would grade at least a 9.2 if it weren’t for the missing piece in the top left corner of the back cover. What do you guys think? Thanks in advance.
  13. Hey Matt, can we get a new set for “Strange Academy”? Thanks in advance and keep up the great work. Set already exists. Thank you
  14. Thanks for the response Matt G!! Keep up the great work!
  15. I feel you... based on the action these books are getting online, I’m sure it will be created soon enough... 🤞
  16. Hi, can we get a set for Thor volume 6 by Donny Cates and Nic Klein please? Thanks in advance. Hello @Gate13, This set will be created shortly per another request. Thank you
  17. Thanks for your input guys! In closing, the seller was gracious and gave me the partial refund that I asked for! All’s well that ends well!
  18. In all fairness, the seller did mention that he’s not a professional grader. He also asked me what I think we should do. I asked for a partial refund. I’m waiting for his response.
  19. It does break color (look at the “Aurora” in red). I’m just curious what that does to the book’s grade.
  20. I received this book today in the mail. The seller graded it a 9.0. to my dismay, the bottom of the BC has a 2 1/2 inch crease that was not present in the pics or description. I’m guessing the damage occurred when the seller put the book back in its sleeve. what grades do you guys give this book before and after the crease. Your input may help solve this issue. thanks in advance!
  21. I don’t think it’s trimmed either! 🤓
