Nazirite Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Can this book benefit from a pressing? It was originally graded in 2010, it has no grader notes ( waste of ten bucks). I’m still very new to the hobby and this is actually my first Flash book. Thanks in advance for any comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theCapraAegagrus Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 There's nothing that looks to be certainly beneficial from a press. The Lions Den 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you both for your comments I wanted to pull out a 8.0 but I guess it’s just a pipe dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A book like this from 2010 has a very low likelihood of being encapsulated without pressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Math Teacher Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 I think the front cover would benefit from a cleaning. In your 3rd picture, it looks like there is some substance on the cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your 3rd picture, it looks like there is some substance on the cover. I was thinking the same thing about the light soiling that the 3rd picture reveals which may be foxing. Given the other defects, and their status as being non-reversible, I don't think that if even most of those spots can be mitigated that it's going to move the meter much on the grade.

I just assumed that they took it out. silverseeker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a good idea, because you may accidentally get charged even though notes aren't available...this happened to me a few years ago, and I had to call CGC to get the cost of the graders notes credited back to my credit card. Hopefully they've worked out the kinks in the system since then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
