Got them from a board member and it came over from France - not sure if that made any difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Cool Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 The books did come with a kind of warping that I see a lot in new books so I did a low heat press on both of them and got some good results. Hope this helps if you guys decide to grade your copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping they are generous with their grading for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Cool Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 I think this books is listed as Variant on the census and there has been a 7.0 (SS copy) graded already which may mean CGC is seeing the damage as not being a printing defect but quite a few 9.8s and even a 9.9. Not sure if the people with defects have been slow to get theirs graded so we will see once slabs start hitting the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGH Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 How can a new book be a 7.0? Ouch That squiggly line in the bottom corner is not just on the Jim Lee tour.. I've seen it on a number of the action 1000 covers.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post 1Cool Posted May 29, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted May 29, 2018 Wow - this is pretty exciting. They just added the Jim Lee Variant in the census and my 2 9.8s are the only ones graded so far. I don't think I've ever had a top census book before! ygogolak, Max Carnage, ADAMANTIUM and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told $399 was way too cheap from people who know moderns way better then me. Heck - they offered to just buy it for $399 since it was a steal at that price. I've gotten a couple offers and questions so we will see how the week goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
