  1. No deal. He has overstated the value by nearly double. ASM #46 is about $200 at 6.0 and ASM #41 is about $300 at 4.5. Research online. As for fakes, well, be careful of slabs that have been cracked open and the comic changed out. Not sure how often this happens, but there are videos on the internet that show this occasionally occurs.
  2. Crease doesn’t appear to be color breaking, so if it can be pressed out that would certainly improve the grade. Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about pressing to help you out. 8.0 as is...
  3. Full length color breaking crease will keep the grade down. 5.0 as is.
  4. Just a suggestion... the general etiquette of this forum is three grading requests per day and one book per post. If you re-post them separately you will probably get a better response. Good luck.
  5. Hi all - Last one tonight... Marvel Team-Up #3, second appearance of Morbius. Both top corners have issues, especially that crunched area along the top edge. Otherwise has excellent gloss and color. Does a press help this book? Thanks!
  6. Hi all - Next up is Amazing Spider-Man #39. Writing on the cover, staple tears, big crease on the BC that is easier to see from the inside, lots of spine and corner issues. Gives me a mid-grade kind of a vibe. Not the worst book I own, not the best... Thanks for your time.
  7. Hi all - Presented for your amusement, Marvel Premiere #15, the first appearance of Iron Fist. Not sure what the splash of color is on the upper spine. Manufacturing defect? Thanks for looking!
  8. Printers creases won’t affect the grade. 8.0
  9. Is that a pen mark on the spine? It looks rather blue and rather out of place. 3.5
  10. You have obviously taken very good care of this book! But there are a few condition issues that may lower the grade. Two issues I see are spine stresses and a slightly blunted corner on the bottom of the spine. I see at least 4 minor color breaking spine stress lines between the upper staple and the top of the book. There may be more than that but the pictures aren’t very clear. 9.0
