Journey into mystery #85 1'st LOKi, what grade was it listed as?

[Jonah Hex]

Fresh from a certain online comic auction site, what would you grade this at. No tears, soils... Slight marvel chip far right of cover.

I'll post the grade this store had it listed as as well as the price I paid. Any guesses?

I assume your scanner is washing out the reds?

 

If so, I think I used to own the copy and with the page quality being so good I figured it for a 6.5. Its a strong copy and a shame it has the one chip on the right edge.

[Mr. Zipper]

Structurally a 5.0/5.5. With the sun fading.... 4.0 IMO.

[drewincanada]

4.5 once again. Looks like a fair bit of spine stress, and the top left corner is pretty dull.

 

Price? CGC 4.5s are going for $200, so I figure you paid half that for a raw copy... assuming it IS a 4.5...

 

$100. Final answer.

[Paratrooper]

9.2!

[drewincanada]

9.2!

 

I think you might be dyslexic. Did you mean 2.9?

[october]

6.0.....if it didn't have the fading. I consider that a very serious defect, and wouldn't buy a book with that type of damage.

 

So I would give it a 4.0.

[burntboy]

I'll say they graded it at a 5.0 and it sold for $150...................

I would grade this 5.5, without considering the faded colors. The spine wear and the chip keep it under 6.0.

 

With the faded colors, I'd lower it to 5.0 or 4.5. Those reds should be...well, red.

9.2!

 

 

You keep posting this on everyone's PGM threads. Why? Are you trying to get their hopes up? Did someone say you grade to low?

A nice looking 4.5

[Paratrooper]

9.2!

I'm training to be a PGX grader, now be quiet and let me work.

I bought this off a recent comiclink auction for 93$. It was listed as a 4.5.

What do you think, deal or no deal?

[rza808]

If it was a bad deal you reselling? I'd take it off your hands for $75 and yes I think that was a decent deal

Could ba a 4.5.

A 6.0 with a fade...

Is the top staple still strongly attached?

VG+ doesn't seem out of the loop.

It does look slightly above avgerage (VG = Average).

 

[Jonah Hex]

staples are all strongly attached. its just the fading thats the problem. how much of aq problem is the question...
