  1. Was going to say 4.5 based on cover but think the interior lets it down a little so 4.0 for me.
  2. 6.5 for me and possibly a 7.0/7.5 with a C&P
  3. @MrRoboto @grendelbo @JohnT @mysterymachine @Februus @Galen130 @Ahsoka Tano Jedi Apprentice @Funnybooks My grail, my baby is on her way home! Very happy with this grade and well done as you guys really know your stuff! 5.0 OFF-WHITE TO WHITE spotting front cover stacking bend right bottom of back cover store stamp right center of front cover tear right bottom of back cover light cover tanning light stain left top of back cover light stain right top of back cover medium crease top of front cover multiple crease right top of front cover
  4. @Axe Elf @Fisionbomb @JohnT @grendelbo @Februus @Ahsoka Tano Jedi Apprentice @Galen130 @MrRoboto @JasonTodd69 @PunisherPunisherPunisher @Funnybooks Was hoping to get the grades for the Express tier of my current submission last week like the rest but typically had to anxiously wait over the weekend! Was slightly disappointed as I was hoping for a 3.0 but can't complain really, as it's within the range I expected. Might have got my 3.0 with a C&P but I didn't really see the point due to the amount of marks on the cover. Since I got this i've actually managed to get a UK priced copy as well, similar grade but probably a bit higher, need to decide whether to keep them both or sell one now Well done as you were all in the ballpark and quite a few of you got it exactly right! 2.5 OFF-WHITE TO WHITE heavy creasing to cover multiple scratch front cover staining to cover
  5. @Get Marwood & I @Pantodude @CJ Design @joeypost @Februus @grendelbo @MrRoboto @Primetime @Galen130 @Just Visiting @Point Five @The lips @Funnybooks Was hoping to get the grades for the Express tier of my current submission last week like the rest but typically had to anxiously wait over the weekend! Very happy as this is what I was hoping for. Based on the grader's notes I think this definitely would've been higher with a C&P but I was worried about the sticker so decided not to. Well done all, as you were either spot on or 0.5 out! 4.0 OFF-WHITE TO WHITE marvel chipping right center of front cover ring stain center of front cover rippling cover stain right bottom of back cover sticker right center of front cover store stamp center of front cover moderate creasing to cover
  6. I think Tad Carter looks quite a bit like Peter Parker. Ditko was probably practicing for the next issue!
  7. 4.5 or 5.0 for me. It’s the creasing on the front opening edge that makes me wonder about it getting higher than a 5.0. Lovely copy though
  8. Just picked a few copies of Amazing Adult Fantasy. Issue 14 is the the last issue before the title was changed to Amazing Fantasy. The second story is the first appearance of Tad Carter, who was the first X-Gene carrying mutant and the prototype character for Professor Charles Xavier. Nice UK price variant but shame about the subscription crease and spots of staple rust. What do you guys reckon it might get and do you think it’s worth a C&P? Thanks in advance!
  9. Yeah in retrospect I should definitely have followed the advice of some of you fine folks who said that. My impatience got the better of me as I was already expecting it to be away with CGC for a long time. They actually turned around all 25 I submitted very quickly. Definitely learnt my lesson though and a couple of my recent posts on here are going to be C&P before submission. I think my FF#6 (posted a couple of weeks ago) will be much improved.
  10. Yeah I was a bit disappointed with this grade, particularly regarding two of the notes. staple detached bottom of front cover I was looking at the photos again last night as I was sure this was still attached, albeit barely. I am wondering if it perhaps became detached when being handled during the submission. store stamp right center of front cover It’s a price stamp not a store stamp. I thought it wasn’t supposed to have an impact on the grade when it’s an overall low grade comic. Admittedly it’s not the cleanest stamp though. Also not sure if this actually had any impact on the final grade!
  11. I definitely should have taken your advice and got this one C&P which I reckon would’ve got it up to at least a 5.0. The staple rust would probably stop it getting all the way up to a 6.0. You gave grade estimates for most of my current submission that I posted on here and were generally either spot on or very close. Just waiting for the grades for the 3 books (TOD #10, FF #48 & ASM #4) in the Express tier of my current submission, Hoping they’ll be later today as current status is Quality Control. I posted them all on here and they’re going to be the ones where even half a grade difference is going to have a big impact on FMV! I submitted 25 books in total and the one I’m most pleased with I didn’t actually post on here (thought I had). It was my low grade Silver Surfer #1, I thought it was going to get around a 1.0 but came back as a 2.5 so I’m very happy!

  17. Just picked this up as I do like Amazing Spider-Man first appearances. What do you folks think this might get? Thanks in advance.
  18. @Februus @grendelbo @Galen130 @Math Teacher @misterrmystery @Axe Elf Hi all, Status just moved to shipped so got my grades and notes back for this one. I was a little disappointed, as I thought 3.0 was a realistic low grade. 2.5 OFF WHITE ink stain left top of back cover spine split bottom of spine staple detached bottom of front cover store stamp right center of front cover writing indent center of front cover finger bends on cover moderate creasing to cover moderate wear spine breaks color soiling on cover tears to cover
  19. @Ahsoka Tano Jedi Apprentice @grendelbo @FoggyNelson @MrRoboto @Aviali @Galen130 Hi all, Status just moved to shipped so got my grades and notes back for this one. You were all pretty close! It might have got to a 3.5 with a C&P but didn't seem worth it due to the other issues. 3.0 OFF WHITE TO WHITE wear spine breaks color worm holes right center of interior moderate creasing to cover multiple staple rusted staining to cover very light worm holes right center of front cover wear all corners of cover
  20. Just got this low grade copy of FF#6. Think I’ll definitely send it in with my next batch of submissions. What grade do you think it might get? Thanks in advance
  21. Just picked this up today, pretty pleased as I think I got it for a bargain! What grade do you guys think it might get if I do decide to send it in? Thanks in advance!
