nice book but thos 3 jagged marks which i assume are from dull blades make the book 9.4ish to me

 

Yes, it looks like three pieces of the cover missing.

[tth2]

Maybe you should move down to Fla.

[blazingbob]

Yup, worked for Jason Ewert to.

Well, clearly the walkthrough service "echo's"

 

This only supports that if you pay enough you can achieve the grade you feel the book deserves.

 

And clearly shows the power of persuasion.

 

I guess Mark was off that day and the graders were over-schmelled?

The things I could spend 30K on....

 

A 63 nova.. Tubbed, full cage, big-block chevy with an 8-71 blower.

 

A really nice batman 1.

 

Downpayment on a house.

 

or a DD 7 9.6...

 

Or.... 30 hours with Ashley Youmans, Elliot Spitzer's main sqeeze.

over-schmelled?

But seriously, given the huge financial incentive waiting for anyone who could've achieved that feat, I guess it's not quite so easy to press a DD 7 up to 9.6. BTW, surely this puts to bed all the whining lately that CGC has gotten tougher in its grading?

 

Spoken like somebody who hasn't submitted books on a regular basis, including within the past 6 months.

If CGC has tightened their grading, it's a good time to buy freshly graded slabs....no?

No I haven't, but I've seen lots of freshly graded books in labels that I thought were a mite generous.

Perhaps the presser deserves to be an equal partner in the transaction?

A question to the ultra high grade fiends on this board; knowing it used to be a 9.2, would you pay the same price for this book that you would for a "virgin" 9.6, considering it's a PC and a really tough book? I know no "virgin" exists yet, but indulge me.

 

I wouldn't. But obviously lots of ultra-HG collectors don't care.

 

I knew you'd chime in, and I knew that would be your answer. But you're one of those collectors who are willing to "do without" until you find the right copy of a book. That's rather unusual at this level of the game.

THIS BOOK WAS A 9.2

 

RE SUBBD TO 9.4

 

AND NOW 9.6

 

 

DISCUSS

 

Press a book once shame on you.

Press a book twice shame on me.

 

 

Sorry, wrong thread...

[The Question?]

Funny, no, seriously comical...

 

this entire thread is based on a MONETARY assumption of return, and therefore, biased!

 

 

CGC grading has ALWAYS been an OPINION, and nothing more. It's YOU the collector/proprietor that has given them such power; me included!

 

It's sad, truly...

If CGC has tightened their grading, it's a good time to buy freshly graded slabs....no?

 

e.g. My buddy got some fresh slabs from Cgc last week. He submitted an ASM #19 that he pre-graded a solid 8.5. It came back Cgc 7.5. He has decided to crack it out and sell it raw. Cgc has seem way too many copies of ASM #19 (top census 9.9, I believe) and FF #48, so they may be grading these tougher?

 

He also submitted a hot modern comic that was unread flawless and he pre-graded 10.0. He got back a Cgc 9.8. He expected minimum 9.9.
