PGM Cap 100: Need some quick feedback please

[DavidTheDavid]

Bought this. Seller unhappy with my questioning of grade. Can you tell me your assessment please? There are six images total. Thank you!

 

Super size images in spoiler tags!

 

 

 

Normal size images:

 

What I interpret as sub crease on front (which is visible slightly on back)

 

 

 

How book lies:

7.5

[Crimebuster]

Hard to say because of that possible sub crease, which I would think is a lot easier to figure out in hand.

 

Still, feels like a 5.5/6.0 to me.

Seriously? Unless he's a boardie, it's just dirty laundry.

Not sure what you mean by that, divad.

 

For what it's worth, seller is not a board member to my knowledge.

[HighStakesComics]

Without looking at the spoiler Im at 6.5. I don't think that's a sub crease but there are a few color breaks. Most sub creases look obvious in hand.

[manetteska]

I'm at 6.0.

[white_rushin]

6.0/6.5

I mean, what do you hope to gain from the opinions of others from a scan? What you know in your heart of hearts is most likely correct. Stick to your guns, and tell the seller what you really think - return the book if you are unhappy.

7.0 tops with creases. What grade where you told it was? eBay?

[DavidTheDavid]

It was a seller from a Facebook group. Two purchases from there were both bad buys. Going to stick to here or reputable dealers from now on.

 

The advertised grade was 7.5, which I think is extremely generous. He gotten really hostile over the thing, saying the pics are not of the same comic, accusing me of buyer's remorse, etc.

 

divad,I just want to know had m not way off before I pursue fighting this through Paypal.

I could see 7.0 tops...... GOD BLESS....

.... seller's who don't offer unconditional returns should be avoided....

[trashcollector]

I havent had much luck buying raw books on fb or ebay

I estimated it 7.5 because the spine looked clean but I am

Based on a quick look at the pictures, I'd say 6.0/6.5. But it's not in hand and I don't think the seller calling it a 7.5 totally egregious. Someone not immersed in modern day CGC-style grading could genuinely believe this to be a 7.5. It's not as though he's insisting it's a 9.0 or above. And I've seen plenty of sellers here on the boards who would call it a 7.5 without a second thought.

 

Did the seller post photos prior to purchase?

 

If you're not happy with it, just send it back for a refund. Doesn't seem worth opening a PayPal case unless the seller refuses to take it back.

...... my grading tightened up after coming here..... what you've said is spot on. There is more info in the Facebook thread..... seller is refusing to refund IIRC ....GOD BLESS....

I can see someone thinking 7.5 but I really don't think it is... As mentioned above just send it back and find another copy. If the guy is claiming you swapped it out and won't refund you, that's just a horrible and dishonest seller. Good luck.

[Ghost Rider]

6.5

[KPR Comics]

Yep, 6.5 for me. Not too far off from a 7.5 (although I would refund you if are respective grades where a full point apart).

 

[thunsicker]

I'm at 6.0/6.5. Over all nice book, but the creasing in the black on the bottom and the fold in the upper left will keep this out of the high grades.

[Incredible Pulp]

From the conservative side that always prevails whaen all is said and done,

 

6.0/6.5 gotta love cappy
