nearmint Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 There must be a fugly 9.0+ out there now While logistically, having two copies in the encapsulation room at the same time would be rare, perhaps it was a clerical error ? What if, the grade and grading notes were entered on the wrong book ? Maybe something as simple as they forgot to hit 'enter' on this book and kept typing. Or maybe they were interrupted and came back entering the wrong data. Stuff happens. I exchanged PMs with Paul last week, and he agreed to take another look at the book. I dropped it off Saturday at the CGC table at Long Beach Comic-Con. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakman29 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I had the same thing happen with the same book. I really thought this would get a 9.4,really it's a stunner in hand. I would gladly pay you 8.5 gpa for that book any day of the week Oakman! Beautiful colours on this book! (thumbs u No doubt. So what did they find that knocked it back so hard? There's a small dot\stain on the upper right front cover in Robins blue circle,easy to see.otherwise the book is stunning. from a 9.4\9.6 to an 8.5 for a tiny dot?

It's relatively well known that stains detract from the CGC grade a lot, even if small. I would have expected the grade to be even less ...

The scan reflects it more pronounced than it really is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffreykli Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 CGC is fairly consistent in that if there's a stain, the top grade possible is 8.5. I have an ASM #14 CGC 8.5 with a very small stain on an otherwise beautiful book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imabat Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 You should complain to CGC. It's pretty clearly a bloodstain from where Robin got shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaillant Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 It seemed to me that this Fantastic Four #48 had rusty staples, and it ended at over $1400… http://www.ebay.it/itm/262064574029?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if it has rusty staples no way that it is in the VF range, i.e. VF and above, so no way that it would cost so much. :shrug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1Cool Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I've sold two of my Daredevil 4s in the last day that have sat for the last few months with no activity. I guess people are finally waking up to the Purple Man craze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
