You gave us no pics, no mention of the era or genre of the books, how do you expect an answer ?

How much does lunch cost ? How much is a new car ? How much does a used comic book cost ? Etc. Etc. Etc. Hope you see what I mean.

I had a Avengers 1 that someone had scribbled all over, writing names above each character and writing the owners name in print.

Mycomicshop called it a 2.0. I thought that was low and sent it for grading. It came back a 4.0 and a notation of writing on cover.

It sold at the low end of gpa but much more than a 2.0.

It all depends on the overall grading of the book...

As already stated pics would help.

4.0 VERY GOOD (VG): 
The average used comic book. Cover shows moderate to significant wear, and may be loose but not completely detached. Cover reflectivity is low. Can have moderate creases or dimples. Corners may be blunted. Store stamps, name stamps, arrival dates, initials, etc. have no effect on this grade. Some discoloration, fading, foxing, and even minor soiling is allowed. As much as a 1/4" triangle can be missing out of the corner or edge; a missing 1/8" square is also acceptable. Only minor unobtrusive tape and other amateur repair allowed on otherwise high grade copies. Moderate spine roll may be present and/or a 1" spine split. Staples may be discolored. Minor to moderate staple tears and stress lines may be present, as well as some rust migration. Paper is brown but not brittle. Minor to moderate interior tears may be present. Centerfold may be loose or detached at one staple.

I graded this book at a FR/GD 1.5.
