5.5-6.0

Not only you want us to grade it, you also want an assessment of the FMV of the book. I am sitting out.

I have few questions to the more experienced members here. 1) Sellers here generally use the rule that says 'No PL/HOS members'. How do you enforce this? Before completing every transaction do you go and search the buyer in the two lists? 2) Some sellers have an additional rule that they will not sell to anyone on their personal lists (beyond PL/HOS). How do you generally implement this? Let's say a person on your personal black list posts a "take" on your sales thread. Is that "take" not binding? Would you publicly post this information on your thread to nullify the "take"? 3) As a buyer, let's say I want to implement the personal rule 'No PL/HOS sellers'. Since being on a PL doesn't prevent someone from selling here, does the onus of verification rely on the buyer? If I post a "take" on a sales thread of a member on PL, and later want to rescind the "take" because of the discovery that they're on PL, would it be okay?

Ensemble of defects generally not seen together -- (binder?!) hole on front cover, water damage on back cover, rust migration on staples. 2.0

6.0

Thinking 6.5-7.0 Not sure if we can go much higher with that piece missing from BC.

3.5 Rust migration lower staple

3.0

I didn't know this. Interesting bit of info. Highest I have seen is 6.5

2.0

4.5

7.0

2.5

Get this book pressed and slabbed ASAP. 8.5-9.0?

Sadly this site is not Latex friendly.

I was thinking 3.0

I was expecting images of multiple pages. I would call it OWW.

IMO it is likely to not get a 9.8 Perhaps 9.4+

Back cover lower left, beside the coupon -- is that water damage? 4.0-4.5 on first look.

I collected some more data points and I think prices are indeed going down. Is there any particular thread on the boards where people discuss price trends?

I believe you have violated the rules of this forum. You can post limited number of books per day. On first look I think around 7.5

To be fair, I completely agree with (1). I liked the fact you included the FMV's from both GoCollect and GPA.

Not sure if it's the right place to ask. Does anyone else feel that comic prices are down this week? I won a modern book for around 30% below GoCollect FMV. Something like this happened to me back in late February too. There was a lot of uncertainty regarding COVID, and the auctions were going significantly below FMV. I would like to hear from people who participated in any eBay auctions this last week.
