silverweb Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 How the hell is that just a 6.0??? Centering perhaps? The book is a little skewed but maybe it was the tape? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VintageComics Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 The tape will bring it down quite a bit, as will wear that does not show up in the scan. There is a bit of spine stress and corner wear there as well. The miscut won't affect the grade in that range. I bid on that but didn't really follow the auction. Maybe I should have.

I see that spine dings about mid-spine, some of them are pretty nice-sized dings, but that still seems to be a harsh grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dem1138 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 CGC said that the pre-grader gave the book a 7.0 but did not see the tape. The 3 graders noticed the tape and gave it a 6.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
