ericc123 Posted November 30, 2002 Share Posted November 30, 2002 There seem to have been alot of these guess the grade posts and everyone seemed to have fun so here is mine. OH and if you saw the auction in which I bought it don't tell anyone else and don't guess. I repeat this is a grading test so don't guess if you already know . Enjoy!

ericc123 Posted November 30, 2002 Author Share Posted November 30, 2002 yeah sorry pimpster this wasn't meant to be hard on you I just felt it was a great example of a 6.5. hmmm is that what it is. My guess is 6.5 whats yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquiti Posted December 1, 2002 Share Posted December 1, 2002 Kind of a smoky picture. I would guess 7.0-7.5 - I can't pick out any major flaws - but the upper left hand corner looks a little flawed as well as near the top staple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drbanner Posted December 1, 2002 Share Posted December 1, 2002 Scan's really too small, but it looks like there's a bit of wear along the top edge where the cover overhangs the interior, and spine stress? If you can see defects on a book with a scan of this quality...6.0-7.0? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murph0 Posted December 1, 2002 Share Posted December 1, 2002 I don't know what the hell is up with that scan, I can't see much of anything. I may be blind or it might be your scan, I dunno Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arty Posted December 1, 2002 Share Posted December 1, 2002 That scan is way too small to determine a grade. I honestly can't see a single flaw in this picture. It could be anything between 6.5 to 9.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericc123 Posted December 1, 2002 Author Share Posted December 1, 2002 Yeah I'm sorry guys I am not much of a computer guy and don't know what to do with scans. I blew the current one up to 200% so lets see if this helps. Ericc123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericc123 Posted December 1, 2002 Author Share Posted December 1, 2002 Well I tried atleast. I will chalk this up to a failed experiment with computers. I just found out how to put up an avatar after all. Any way I just thought we could all have some fun with this post and talk about comics but I guess not. To those that are interested there is virtually no spine stress and very little over lay on the top which was mentioned for a grade on VF/NM 9.0 Have a good rest of the weekend, Ericc123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murph0 Posted December 1, 2002 Share Posted December 1, 2002 Yeah I thought I remembered you buying a 9.0, still can't really see the book though. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arty Posted December 1, 2002 Share Posted December 1, 2002 No wonder I couldn't pick a single flaw in that picture... it actually is nearly flawless nm book. I really like these "guess the grade" guestions, I can compare my newbie grading skills against experts. I have learned a lot in a last few weeks.
