showcase22gr1959 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 First post in the club. Bob has a blue 4.5. (thumbs u I wish you had me doing a double-take Mine is a 4.0 LT/CR. It's probably too close to call for me to bid on that raw to try to upgrade My bad. How about Bob had interests on 4.5's+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masamune69 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 What is the deduct for writing on the front cover and a tear on the back cover? If you check here: http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=I showflat&Number=3930313 Gemma said: Any book which is submitted with a signature on the front cover which is of a high grade will received the Green, Qualified label and the signature will not affect the CGC grade in any way. The green Qualified label will state that there is a name written on the cover and what the grade of the book would be if the signature were ignored. If the book has a signature on the front and is of a low grade it will receive a Blue, Universal label and the signature will affect the grade of the book (depending on the size, how much it disrupts the cover etc.). If the signature is on the interior of the book only, then it will receive a Blue Universal label regardless of grade and the signature will affect the grade of the book (less than if it were on the cover, however). As for the tear in the back, I would say it is consistent with the 4.0 grade. It may go down to 3.5. If you check sales during the last two months on Comiclink and GPA number, I would not spend more than 1500$ for this book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash105 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Well that does not leave too much room to go on this book. What's interesting is that they seem pretty well preserved. It looks like the guy stored them nicely. Unfortunately, he read them 200 times. They have good colors. The back covers look pretty white and the pages look decent as well.

I try to hold onto dupes, but there is always another book I want more than a dupe of one I already have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash105 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Don't like the spine but I agree, the colors are bright and the edges aren't bad. It's ashame the #8 isn't a matching grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) Why not a 8.0 with the SC4...that would be a nice set along with SC22, BB28 8.0's too. Edited February 3, 2011 by showcase22gr1959 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
