PGM: Silver Surfer #1

[Battle]

OW/W pages, tiny tear top FC, does not go thru, more of a crease. 1" vertical crease LFC, tiny dmg LFC. Thank you for your time.

tough one to grade but I am going with 6.5

[NYNick]

6.0

[ivegotneatstuff]

5.0

[MR SigS]

5.0

I have to agree just because of the collection of color breaks and that LLFC abrasion.

I'm thinkin' textbook 6.0 Those two 5.0's are a tad harsh

[Sandflea]

5.5

I bought this as a 7.0 on ebay and was never quite happy with the grade but wasn't sure on grading these square bound books. Now I know why

Thanks again for your input.

I just got home from Barnes & Noble with the 2006 Overstreet Comic Book Grading Guide. This can be a VERY useful tool in grading your own books and grading potential purchases.

If anyone else has this, I love the 0.5 example on pg 341...A Hawkman #42 from 2005. The book is cut in half right down the middle!!

 

0.5?

 

To be fair, if it were an Action Comics #1, it would still be worth thousands of $$$ to somebody restoring one....

Sorry I got

np, I got my answer. It wasn't until I got the book in hand and saw the accumulation of defects that I doubted the grade. But for the price I paid I kept the book as a placeholder. I just got to the point where I'm ready to upgrade and needed to know how to price the book for sale. i.e. I didn't want the insane asylum to jump me in the "for sale" section over grading.

Absolutely 6.0! I would to get 5.0's like that all day on ebay!!!
