If you mean going blue I don't think either stands a chance as a candidate. One is trimmed and the other was re-glossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the phrase. if the mechanics don’t bite on these, maybe we can get a better idea of what percentage of blue a PLOD is truly going for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Knight Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Yep. I agree that trimming is not resto. by any means.. CGC should have a different colored label with trimmed books, excessive resto removal, anything of the like to highlight how it is complete destruction of comics. I'd like to see the red label brought back for it (1st gen modern books were in red labels and have since changed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a better memory than I do No not from me and I don't know if it had a cover. I sold you Batman 7-8-9-10 last time we did a deal. I know you where not happy with the grade on one of them so I sent you my vg/f copy of Batman 49 to make you happy Now that book is hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they put in a purple label ( but they don’t assign a restoration designation (like a1 or c1). They don’t say “restoration includes” like they do with restoration. They just note the trimming in an apparent grade shortboxed and Gotham Kid 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
