Is this book a 6.0 in your opinion?

[batman_fan]

I just don't see it. With that missing corner on the lower right plus the pages, not higher than a 4.0 in my book and I may go lower. Am I being too strict?

 

Adventure 87

wow, that is poopy for a 6.0

I don't think the missing corners would warrant a 6.0.

I'd betcha' if that book was raw, and posted in the "hey buddy, can you spare a grade?" thread, no one on these Boards would give it a grade higher than 4.5.

The 6.0 was a gift for the owner of that book ( and my guess is, it will sell for around a VG ish price, since this is a clear case of the label not matching the book inside the holder )

I agree, a gift.

[143ksk]

It's a nice looking book other than the LRHC. I think a 6.0 is pretty optimistic, though

[skybolt]

All I can say is

[whomerjay]

I'd pay about a 2.0 price (if I collected that book).

 

Why is this book not "trimmed" with a PLOD? Does trimming have to involve at certain precentage of the side or top?

The rest of the book must look pretty f'n sweet for CGC to give it a 6.0 - the corner chip isn't massive - I could see it pushing 5.0 - but 4.5 is more likely.

My eye keeps going to that corner, though. Looks like it might have been clipped of or cut off.

[FlyingDonut]

In my opinion, that book is a CGC 6.0. I'm basing this on the visual evidence of the "6.0" at the top middle of the blue label on the slab. I could be wrong, of course, but I'm pretty sure.

You have quite an eye for grading.

[Bat-Hound]

A good lesson to learn ...put a couple hundred bucks tucked away at the centerfold send it for grading and everyone is happy

Chip?

 

Unless I am seeing things, the entire lower right hand corner of the book is gone. That is, unless that issue had transparent pages and only the corner of the cover is gone?

[piper]

4.5. Aside from the corner, it presents pretty well.

Transparent pages...you crack me up, Bill.

Well, I didn't specify cover chip - I meant the the entire book.

[brasseye]

It's the same copy as previously sold on Heritage in every other 6.0 listed. So a small price spike in 2003 over 2002, and then down hill for the 2005 sale.

 

By the sounds of it here, the price will be falling in 2007 for this book as well.

Should this book have been given a designation of qualified? I know grading is subjective and we are opinionated folk. I would think it looks like a 7.5 qualified.
