I would re-auction that book faster than you can say Bat-Man. The 9.2 grade looks to be pretty harsh as the back cover is spotless and the front looks very solid. I bet a slight cleaning along the spine and press was made it an easy to shine like it was NM.

Not every day that a pre-Robin hits 9.6 grade.

for a non Bats cover ? Not so sure.

Thinking maybe 80-90k. Still a good return from the 50k that was dropped.

Nice for the seller but bad business for the buyer.

I don't know as this kind of stuff is so common place these days [unfortunately].

I think this purchase will end up being good for the buyer- really good. It's a stunning book with great colors, and the only thing the buyer can't do ( realistically ) is resubmit for a higher grade, like the seller did. You're not going to see a better copy of this book in a looooooooong time, if ever. If he/ she sells at some point in the future---- can't see the possible info surfacing of "used to be a 9.2" keeping this book from having a great ROI....

Don't be so sure. I think a 10.4 is possible.

What's funny is that if CBCS graded it 9.6 the pitchforks would be out in force.

Only by a few people.

I don't think it would sell for much more than before.....it was the highest graded copy before and now still is, just more secure in that designation.

 

Still a very cool book!

Dunno. Some people seem to go bonkers when they see a very high grade number in the top left corner. But yeah, maybe not as high as 80k.

you're right too......auction fever can hit and when combined with a book like this, who knows how high it can go.....the label of highest graded can go a long way!

It may not get to 80k, but i feel it will be very close
