vaillant Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Please forgive me if this has been discussed in this thread before, but how do you guys value the books you have married, or when buying copies that have had something married to them? Do you usually knock a % off the guide price of the book's condition? Just curious what everybody else's mentality is regarding pricing a married book. My mentality is to knock a percentage off – I am not sure how CGC treats the various cases (especially with Golden Age where it is more common), as there are a good number of Hulk #181 with married wraps (because of the value stamp) that have been graded as "Qualified". If they consider it restoration when marrying a cover (which in fact it is) maybe they should all grade as restored. I have sent my own Hulk #181 to grade and I am curious to see how it will be, as I suspect the stamp page is married, so it falls in that case.

If a book has a married part of any sort but no other restoration it will be Qualified. If it has other restoration it will be purple with the married pieces mentioned in the notes on the label. If it isn't caught it will be blue James G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaillant Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Ah, I see – thanks James! So I should expect Qualified for mine? I am sure it has no other restoration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgallo Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Ah, I see – thanks James! So I should expect Qualified for mine? I am sure it has no other restoration. Yes there are plenty of Hulk 181 qualified because of the cut stamp or that wrap being married, these are GREEN labels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaillant Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Yup, I see that Qualified is used both for the stamp missing and for the married page. Strictly speaking, marriage is "restoration" so maybe it would make more sense to treat it as such, but I am not complaining, as far as colors go I prefer Green to Purple, just in case… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
