? anyone??

I see a few spine ticks at the top & some wear on the corners. I'm notoriously bad at grading, but I'm going to guess 8.5

Looks like a bend through the entire book (lower right corner).

I'd say 7.0, but CGC is very generous with this book

Based on the FC and BC scans I was thinking around an 8.0-8.5 range. With the other images I might knock it down a grade.

 

That grade was mostly based on about 12 FC spine ticks, and 4 or 5 BC spine ticks and

 

There's also the crease on the outside edge of the BC, that is more apparent if you click the image and view the high res.

 

All the corners are a little bit blunted as well.

 

In looking at the new images, there's a few finger nail imprints (one by bar code) and a crease on the lower right FC in in the 2nd image that wasn't visible in the scans. On the open pages image you can see that crease goes through the interior pages as well in the lower right.

 

Also the outside edge on the FC and BC going from top to bottom has a bit of wear.

 

I'd guess you could press a lot of the flaws out of it but as it lays I'm going to say 7.5 give or take (7.0-8.0)
