Would this book grade no higher than 2.0 if submitted to CGC (becasue of the tape) ?

 

I keep getting outbid but if 2.0 is all it will grade at, I don't really want to push hard.

 

Here are the notes:

 

Notes:

name written in ink top margin of 1st page

4 tears & small creases right front cover breaks color

3 pieces of tape on interior cover.

most of spine is split. spine wear breaks color

dried glue at open tears

 

Given that the spine isn't completely split and (apparently) the cover isn't reattached with tape, I think it would get a grade above 2.0 from CGC ... but you might be taking an expensive gamble to find out.

The CL Cap 1 is already up to $40k.

 

Up to $41k.

 

I'd wager the seller's magic number is $45k.

I think the 2.0 is worth every bit of the $60K the seller is asking. Looks like a bargain to me. :devil:

I'm inclined to agree. A buyer will step up. The seller knows what he has. But I'm biased.

 

So are you. lol

Feels like hyperinflation to me ...not good for the hobby imo

 

Agreed that goes for any hobby.

 

Nah. Just making up a little ground on the Batman/Superman 1's of the world.

And a superman 1 that sold for 80k 2 years ago realistically is a 300k book today. Sorry, my opinion is we are in for a rude awakening sooner or later

 

Slow and steady, that wins the race
