nik Posted May 29, 2009 Author Share Posted May 29, 2009 If there is a tear on it, there is no way the book would have a chance at a 9.0. I have sent in books that were structurally NM with tiny tears and the best I ever received was a VF+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeypost Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Just this FC scan. But BC looks bettter than the front. Visible defects include small tear UL FC and small color breaking corner crease LR FC (both visible in the scan). Visible defects include small tear UL FC and small color breaking corner crease LR FC No way this book would have gotten a 9.0 with those 2 defects. Even if they were the only things wrong with the book 8.0 is the best you could have possibly gotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollobuzz Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Well, that's what I used to think also before I purchased this one (and I had personally graded the FF #37 at 8.0 prior to this)! I called for grader's notes and sure enough, this X-Men #142 has a tear. I think it depends on the nature of the tear and how much it visibly detracts from the book.

The Silver-Age Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 WOW...nice book! I love this cover... I too have always loved this cover. I just have never understood what Magneto is hoping to do to Iceman? He can't hurt him. Why is Iceman scared of being blasted with megnetism? He's ice. Throw a ice spear at him!!!
