Should this copy of Batman 9 have been graded 4.0?

[Antonio]

This copy of Batman 9 is currently up for auction on eBay, graded 4.0 by CGC. The damage on the left side of the book has kept me from bidding. I'm far from a grading expert, but I would think the tear/apparent damage would have lowered the grade.

 

Just curious what y'all thought.

 

Thanks.

I'm having trouble copying the image, but here is a link to the auction..

 

 

Batman 9 4.0

the book looks clean other than the left side your talking about...nice black cover

 

 

cgc is easier of GA stuff anyways so i can see why this get a 4.0

 

nice book !

CGC wasn't easier on my GA subs, but I'd agree with a 4.0 on this.

[The_Captain]

Looks very nice to me otherwise.

 

Flat, bright colors, clean cover, very nice bc ect. Has some good qualities and would definitely grade higher if not for the wear on the spine and bottom.

 

4.0 seems accurate.

[comicdonna]

I would agree with the given grade.

[Boozad]

I'd buy it as a 4.0.

I'd want a closer look - based on the the sellers description of the book - it sounds like it's pretty much just color loss - which can look worse than normal on a black cover book. But if the paper is actually damaged and weakened, then it's a weak 4.0

looks 4.0 to me. buy it and add a little color touch with a black marker and resubmit it and then see what grade it will get.

Looks like a 4.0 to me. Scuffing on the left is the major defect; aside from that it would be a 5.0 probably.

[madzlin]

If I were a Batman fan, I'd be happy with the grade of 4.0.

Hating the new eBay scan hosting thing.

 

Yes.

4.0

 

I know the spine sucks and if you are a spine freak like me I'd stay clear.

The rest of the book looks like it's in the 7s so 4 seems about right.
