This came back with a "Modern" Label. Isn't that the red label? Huh?

 

 

The Red label was switched to Blue several years ago... :makepoint:

I know that. But it's listed online as modern. I guess it's just a misprint. :P

 

It just means that it is a modern tier (Post 1975) book.

And for the (shrug):

Has this one slipped out of the inner well? Can I send this back to get reseated?

Why was this given a qualified grade when I have seen other printer plate swaps given the standard blue label? How does this printer error effect the collectable value?

You mean like FF 110? Very good question. I'd've thought such an error (I've not seen one of those before, fwiw) would've been treated the same way. There are no structural problems to qualify the grade.

 

I assume it could go for more than a regular Avengers 10 as it is rare - but the market is sometimes skewed regarding error books like this. FF 110 "green" version usually goes for a large premium, especially in high grade, whereas other books with similar "defects" do not. Maybe it's because it's still aesthetically eye-catching, but that's just a guess.

 

Either way, great books - impressive how many have white pages. And that Cap 110 is the nicest (whitest) I've seen.

If the book is in a GLOD, then the Manufacturing Error is treated as a defect.

 

You could resub the book and request a Blue label, but expect the grade to come down sharply.

 

The FF 110 Error Version is notoriously tough to find in HG, and the slabbed copy - in a Blue label - in the current ComicLink Focused Auction is a fine minus. Since the defect of the switched plates didn't affect the overall grade, it got a blue label.

 

 

God, how I hate the whole concept of the Green label. How I hate it so

But why? They don't treat other manufacturing defects this way (other than MAYBE the "manufactured without a second staple"). How do you quantify this "defect" anyway?
