I don't think there is any competition. One has a water stain and has cream/off-white pages. Definitely keep the 007.

 

I was all for 007 until I saw it's back cover.

 

Ahhhh....I was confused. I thought the other book had the water stain. Knowing it's 007, it's a little tougher to call. I hate stains, but the front presents better. hm

The one with the water stain has off white/white pages. The 7.0

 

EDIT: Never mind. Torch beat me to it.

See above your post.

Sell them both and upgrade to a 6.0.

 

I voted for the stained back copy because the front cover presents much better. Crack it, put it in a mylar with a fullback. You'll never see the back cover. :headbang:

I like the front cover of 007 better, but that back cover stain does it, I voted to keep the 008.

 

Hmm maybe if the voting or your decision is too close, sell both of them and use the money to buy a third copy that grades a little higher than each of these two.

 

But if I had them and had intended to sell one and display the other; and if I were planning to hang it on the wall I would keep 007 due to the smaller number written on the front cover (the back cover would not be viewed)

 

I like them both - always been partial to dinosaur covers since I was a kid.

Now, perhaps it's related to the stain but I see some waviness here. Do you recall if the comic had that top edge wave before submitting?

I received 18 new cases in last two weeks. All books are wavy.

I don't like water stains so it was hard for me to pick. They are both about the same. I went for 007 just because the cover looks a little better and the page quality was slightly better. I'm surprised that both came back 5.0 as they look more like 4.0's to me.

Both were pressed professionally.

I would take the 007. Centered better, smaller marking not that mind markings but this one is more tolerable. Better PQ is a big one!! I never quite understood why people cared so much about the back cover I would WAAAAAY rather have a nicer looking front where the actual art is. I guess if you're thing is , "Fast selling American Seeds" I could understand. lol Some books like GA off the top of my head have either Artwork for their other published comics or even Pin-Ups of their characters like Steele Sterling for example. This book is just advertisements so I gotta go with 007 on this one
