The "hit" depends on the overall condition of the book.

High grade book = very big hit

Low grade book = very minimal/no hit

Makes sense, thanks. Does something like this get a green label or blue?

Sorry, maybe this was the wrong forum. All I really want to know is how big of a grade hit a marker drawing like this and whether it could still get blue label.

I'm curious how bad of a grade hit the marker drawn Jesus fish is? Will the book still qualify for blue label or will it get green?

It's the high end raffles that really baffle me. I've seen raffles in IG for books like AF15 where each spot is $1000 and some guys buy like 5 or more spots. Sure it's an amazing deal if you win, but I can't imagine losing $5k with nothing to show for it. That money could have easily been spent on a SA grail. Well, not these days I guess. In today's market $5k will get you a mid grade 1st appearance of Agatha Harkness.... 

From what I've seen, and I just got back into comics after over 20 years so I'm no expert, the high end raffles seem to have small raffles to get into them. So your $1000 spot would have a raffle with ten $100 spots where winner gets into the big one. Then maybe the $100 spot would have a mini raffle at $10 each. I've done a few raffles, I won my first one and lost the next few but it's fun and gives me my gambling fix.
