In my experience grading was a bit more loose in the 80's-90's. Maybe just consider getting a new(er) OSPG?

 

that's my problem I don't have a credit card and that's pretty much the only way to buy it fron gemstone publishing :( I'm thinking of asking someone to buy me a copy and I'll pay them back

Isn't there a LCS nearby that you could buy it from?

Hey guys I want to buy a overstreet comic grading guide but here's the problem it's from 1992 but I've heard more than once that grading was tougher when it first started then it is now

 

Thoughts?

 

Good reading, guys. :eyeroll:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The general consensus is that the Second Edition is the one to get.

I have the third edition and it's a great tool. I break it out on a frequent basis just to read it and check out the examples even when I am not grading any books. When I am grading, it's right next to me for reference.
