I think the AT 25 had been pressed or something lol the crease in the upper left back cover caught me too and I over corrected. Had 9.4 crossed it out and put 9.2 ha.

:whatthe:....me too.  I couldn't decide between a 9.2 or 9.4 so naturally, I picked the wrong one.

It was only on back cover, and looked really super, must have been.

looked to me like one on the back top left and one on front lower right

Honestly I'm surprised that the Western graded as high as it did too :shy: with that scruff along the bottom left of front among other things. I thought that 5.0 was a safe bet meh

I went a bit higher with a 7.0, but only because of the age of the comic. I know CGC tends to be a bit more generous with those. Still, missed by '' that much.

I undergraded both books again  5.5/9.2. Those 2 creases on bottom right front and top left back cover on the AT kept me from a 9.4.

I originally had a 6 for the western but that bottom left corner looked pretty bad to me and thought the book had enough all around cumulative defects for a 5.5.  Was going to bump to 6 for the WP but didn't.

I think my mistake has been trying to guess the correct grade as opposed to what CGC would grade it at.  Time for a strategy change.
