Pgm: SHOWCASE 22

[KryptoSpidey]

Hi folks,

I'd love to get some input and your thoughts on this book.

It has a huge piece of the last page missing.

The bottom staple at the centerfold is detached.Everything else as seen.

 

Will it get a Universal low grade label? or a Green (Q) label "Incomplete,Does not affect story"" ? or will it get returned to the seller?

It was purchased as a VG,with the note of a "chunk" missing from last page.

You probably have seen this book listed for sale.

Over graded and under disclosed?

Thanks...

Fair but nice

I think it grades 'return to seller' if you paid VG price...

1.5

Really sad when advertised and sold by a MAJOR dealer.

i dont feel that is a vg by any means. you would try to sell that to a dealer it would be called fair or 1.0 i would return

Probably won't get a green label as it wasn't otherwise HG so this is just an added defect.

 

I'd call it a 1.5/1.8, eye appeal is there, but it's missing a large chunk with a detached CF.

1.5 is appropriate with that chunk missing. I have seen CGC issue Green Label 4.0 for a book that has an entire non-story page removed.

 

But still this book is worth no more than 1.5 value (maybe a tad more, cause it displays well). Any experienced dealer that sold that as VG is trying to see what they can get away. However you note they sold it as "VG but has a chunk missing from last page", kind of sounds like they were disclosing the problem and saying 1.5 in a non-direct way (like buying a pre-owned car aye).

 

Good luck.

too bad they didn't mention the detached centerfold at bottom staple either..

book was returned this morning express mail...expect to see it back listed on ebay again soon.

1.5.

[kimik]

1.5 is my guess as well. I had a similar exterior condition ASM #1 with a smaller piece missing from the right side of the second page that affected the story panels that graded out at 1.5.
