Boba Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Nice 24 The PQ is less than ideal though. It is an old label book, though, so there might be hope for a PQ bump. I just found out today that the old label SC #22 with Cream pages I resubbed is now a CR/OW. In any case, I would expect prices on #23 and #24 to pull back after the movie hype dies......... Know what you mean. I resubbed my CR/OW SC #22 and it came back an OW/W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boba Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Thanks! I was pretty thrilled . . . although truth be told, I was looking for a .5 bump in grade But who can complain about a PQ bump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More money for CGC and is a great idea. Yes, and I'd like it just to pin down the PQ to something everyone can understand. I've seen books with fragile paper that was nearly white, and tanned books with good strong flexible paper. I think of PQ when I'm handling a book, is it going to tear easily with the slightest pressure of a finger in the wrong way? I wish CGC would make a PQ scale that put priority on the paper strength and likelihood to take rough handling without tearing, plus the color factor for appearance. Right not it seems to be that they hunt the lightest square inch inside a book, and poof, that's the PQ color. I'm exaggerating I know, but I hope you see my point. I care about the long term life of the collectibles, the highest PQ rating should indicate that a book will last longer than the lower PQ.
