  1. 5.0-5.5 If you get this graded please post the results as I'm very curious as to what this will grade at.
  2. The FMV is $975 for a .5. So it would be worth grading if your looking to sell.
  3. 10. Strange Fantasy #7 3.5 11. Wanted Comics #50 3.5 12. Wanted Comics #52 3.0 And even though the wanted 52 has great color I thought the staining and creasing would cap it at a 3.0. Didn't finish as strong as I would've liked to, but I still had fun! Looks like I read my notes wrong for strange Fantasy #7. I did have it at a 3.5.
  4. Thanks for setting up this contest @Point Five. And thank you for giving us a glimpse of your impressive collection 😊
  5. Any grader can have a bad day & it's a shame there's not a good way to deal with something like this. I'm sure there isn't b/c it would be abused constantly since everyone thinks their books should all grade 3 spots higher than what the label says. @scburdet You read my thoughts perfectly😂 I really don't know what happened here. I was sure this book would come back as a 9.0. I've been staring at this book closely the last couple days to see if maybe I was being to generous in my grading, but i just dont see the defects that the grader's notes lists. It says light foxing to cover, but I'm not seeing any foxing. Its says light wear to cover, but the colors on the front and back have high reflectivity. And as for the spine stress lines to cover theres maybe 3 to the left of the Marvel publishers circle, but its nothing that I feel would keep it from grading above a 7.5. On the plus side it's still a GA book with white pages and a great addition for my PC😁
  6. I was hoping for an 8.0, but im still very happy with having a GA book coming back as a 7.5 with white pages.
