Wally's Comics Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 First off before you open the spoiler to reveal the grade look closely and think about the grade you would give it and post the grade you would give based off of the cover alone. Trust me even if you opened the book and rays of sunshine sparkled out you'll never think the inside would give it this much of a bump!... SHOCKING ISN'T IT???!!!!

slym2none Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Wow. CGC really needs to re-evaluate its position on grading older issues differently than moderns. -slym bubzero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedy-D Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 :whatthe: I was thinking 4.0 or 4.5!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fett Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 do you own this? my kneejerk reaction would be that someone photoshopped somewhere or inserted the lowgrade copy into a different container. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broke as a Joke Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I thought 4.5. Figured the "surprise" would be it's sitting in a 6.5 holder. That's ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red84 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I'd give it a 3.5 based on the rounded corners and spine stress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red84 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Just opened the spoiler. Is that a joke?!?! If that's legit I have a few books that should grade a 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wally's Comics Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 Swapped out comic? That was my thoughts originally. But this number just flipped on GP... The case nodules don't look to be modified. I gave it a 5.5 tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hibou Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Wally... I'm not sure what to say. I had it as a 4.5, maybe thinking a 5.0 on a good day. Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aces Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Well maybe they gave it a 5.0 (or 6.0) and the guy printing the label just hit the wrong button. *insert gif here with blindfolded monkey pushing buttons* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
