G.A.tor Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 my initial comment should have been "if cover is split or detached/reattached with tape" and "cf reattached with tape", then 2.0 as high as cgc goes I believe... I was rushing through on phone, and didn't properly confirm siri had gotten it right... I have not pulled notes, just guestimating based on the notes of tape, that is the obvious reason (given nothing is readily visibly apparent) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.tor Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 it also could have possibly been a restored copy, with the glue (and maybe some ct) removed... that's a "visual" possibility without any confirmation on my end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sqeggs Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 It's hard to know what that last entry means. I assume that only one staple is detached and the word "multiple" is a typo. Given only one staple detached and that the cover isn't entirely split, and given how nice the rest of the book looks, 2.0 seems like a harsh grade to me.

Gator was spot on but I agree that given those notes that the grade seems unfair. Seems like it should be a 3.0 to me. Thanks for doing the note pull by the way. -J.

G.A.tor Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I read the notes as saying it is detached at multiple/both Staples Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqeggs Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I read the notes as saying it is detached at multiple/both Staples Maybe, but "multiple" is an odd way to phrase it rather than "both," or just "cover detached" or "cover reattached with tape."

Might be using their terminology because books have anywhere from 1-3 staples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be using their terminology because books have anywhere from 1-3 staples. Could be, but if the cover is detached or was reattached with tape, I think they would have stated so directly. Hard to be sure, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaydogrules Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Any thoughts on the FMV of a copy like that ? I could see it pushing $45k at auction. Maybe even 50. Low grade copies that look that nice can't be very easy to come by. -J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Knight Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Was thinking at least $40k as well. Looks much better than my former 2.5 copy I sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
