PSM - ASM #252 - Grading Thoughts?
Matt1982 replied to BenjamminT's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
+1 -
I was thinking about: - Large crease on the back cover - non-color breaking creases on the spine, particularly in the white "startling new job" box - creasing on the fc in upper right corner - also seems like cleaning would help a lot on the back cover, and in the white areas of the fc

My 2 and 5 are pretty beat up. I’ll want to upgrade them soon, 5 will be tough though since I’ve had it since I was 14

Wow - those are nice!

pgm Doctor Who #1 (1984)
Matt1982 replied to Flammenwerfer's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
8.5 mostly because of the chipping at top of the fc, could press up though. -
-
That looks like a 2.0, but I think it could clean up a bit - maybe 3.0. Good luck!
-
Thanks all - I appreciate it. I sent it in for grading with a ccs press, so feel free to put your “pressed” grade and I’ll post when it’s back.

Clean/press will help. 1.5 2.0 as is.

I submitted a DD 158 for the Miller/Janson signing. I had the book signed by Jim Shooter at a show when I was a kid - he wrote his name on the bottom of the first page, not on the cover. Any idea how much that will lower the grade? Sorry I can’t post photos, it’s with CGC. Just wondering how much the Shooter sig will drop the grade.

Agreed. Covid is impacting prices on a lot of high-end keys - will be interesting to see whether it holds after the world returns to normal.

ASM 16 - Should I Press and Re-slab?
Matt1982 replied to Matt1982's topic in Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?
Thanks fellas. I’m not a dealer, I just collect for myself. I love this in my collection, so I’m going to get it cleaned and pressed. If it goes up that’s great, but I’m not doing it for the grade. Thanks again. -
-
Considering having it pressed and re-slabbed because I’m guessing it would help with the spine roll. I’m just not sure whether it would be worth it? Love thoughts - thanks!
-
I bought an older book in a slab - ASM 16 - and it’s pretty badly rolled. It’s a 5.5, so not too bad otherwise. I’m considering getting it re-slabbed, and having it pressed. I get the sense that will help but would love input. Thanks.
-
Thanks. I’d definitely be open to that if it were a $100 book, but for the kind of money this guy wants I’d think he’d do it himself. I wouldn’t risk dropping that much and then being told by CGC they won’t change the label.
