comicginger1789 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Some generous boardies on here... I previewed some 5.5 and 6.0 on eBay. Similar spine wear but your copy seems a tad more severe. Plus, a lot of the 5.5-6.0 I am seeing did not have those two big corner creases. I think realistically, 4.5-5.0 at the highest.

IbukiLord Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share Posted November 19, 2019 I'd be pretty happy with a 5.0 to be honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theCapraAegagrus Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Am I missing something? I don't see how this could be worse than a 6.0 grade. Deadpoolica and oldrover 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Multiple spine ticks beyond the Fine range. Colour loss near one edge. Two moderately sized colour breaking creases. Back cover has wear, not sure if a clean helps is sharpen up. I looked at some 6.0's of this book and none had the degree of spine wear/ticks that this did and neither had two large corner creases. Thus, as this appears worse, I bumped my grade down. A press and clean could optimize this book but there is a lot going on that keeps it from Fine outright for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicginger1789 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Plus this 4.5 has similar spine wear so that is why I sit where I sit. Send er in though, I wanna see what CGC says https://www.ebay.com/itm/THE-AMAZING-SPIDER-MAN-300-CGC-4-5-VG-1st-app-Venom-Marvel-Comics-5-1988-/163935325724?hash=item262b4e8e1c%3Ag%3ATJcAAOSwFFBdxNDh&nma=true&si=hgMho1t2lk4FKOLV8h2g1xLET%2Fg%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDaddy1 Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 Im gonna have to say a 5.0 for this book, as my guess. Also not sure what silver surfer means by a tear, I'm not seeing one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PunisherPunisherPunisher Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 It's rough but looks like a 5.5 at best IbukiLord 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
