  4. Agreed and I really like being able to complete remnants with color copies and make inexpensive readers for those of us who need to operate within a budget. I'm not ashamed to have a coverless with a laser color replica cover.
  5. Thanks! Well, the Kid can't seem to hang on to his guns with that nutty boomerang flying around! Maybe he can tempt him with a cheeseburger or something.
  6. What a great book to start with!!! Welcome to the madness!!!
  7. The previous label was blue because the book was all original to itself. Wrapping a non-original cover around a coverless is considered "marrying" the cover and is considered qualified by CGC to differentiate between a book having a loose but original cover to that exact book. Most of the time it's fairly easy to see a coverless copy married to a cover as the staple holes rarely line up exactly. Marrying a centerfold can suffer from the same misalignment and CGC would consider THAT qualified too, but from an appearance standpoint, it would be hidden inside the slab, whereas a cover misalignment would be visible thru the slab. Marrying covers or interior pages gets you a green qualified label.
  8. You're right, that'd be the least invasive as far as not having to detach and re-attach anything. Marrying the loose cover to the coverless, leaving the cover loose and having it graded would likely result in a qualified grade of maybe in the 3ish range, but it would be a green label. Then he'd have a coverless copy with cfo to dispose of as well.
