  1. I was at 4.0, but wouldn't argue against 4.5
  2. grading choices depend on your plans. Personal collection, do whatever makes you happy. Selling, check ebay or any number of websites were you can see recent graded & raw sales. You have to calculate that the cost of grading would increase the sale price since you can easily get to $50 or more/book to press, grading, ship, etc. This might press to 4.5/5.0
  3. The UK books often came with this unattached mishegoss. Captain Britain 1 has a mask for example. CGC will Green label them if not included (unless you're lucky & they forget. I still have the mask which I didn't think I should send). Personally, I think that's silly since it wasn't attached to the book & IDK how they encapsulate them.. IDK what they'd do with a sticker sheet missing a sticker. I suspect Green label too with a note that a sticker is missing. I'll wager a 4.0/4.5 with c/p. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/363942217876
  4. around 7. Buy the already graded 8.5 for $180 instead of this one. https://www.ebay.com/itm/155427083724
  5. 9.0/9.2 looks like stress lines on the back spine. Signature only impacts the label color, which will be Green
  6. Didn't notice some of the creasing until I opened the enlargements 7.5
  7. 4.0/4.5 pressed. 1st Steranko Marvel cover
  8. I think 8.0, bit there's stuff I'd like to see in hand.
  9. Just based on the front cover, I would have said the max is 7.0, which would require a generous allowance for the total area of missing pieces. The back has foxing and the paper is generally starting to tan. I'd think 6.0 is more like the ceiling with the full book considered. not VF, this is either overgraded or listed incorrectly
  10. I think those are too big to be considered chips. More like a few small pieces out. See the pinned thread for posting guidelines on PGM. The minimum photos required are full front and back shots to get a grade
  11. CGC guide has fingerprints at 6.0-9.6 depending on severity. Looks like some light handling wear & surface dirt, especially on the back. I could see this at 8.0 give or take after c/p. Too bad all the creators have passed. You could get a signature to cover up the fingerprint pretty easily.
  12. 4.5. Maybe a grade higher. Looks a little better than my 4.0. Thought it was higher, so I wonder about standards for this one.
