"I have been collecting comics for 25 or so years. I am fairly well up to speed on grading...

 

Gade: 7 (better than fine- definately closer to very fine)"

 

7.0? Surrrrrrrre buddy. What a waste of 25 years!

[CosmicBob]

He may have been collecting comics for 25 years, but how long has he been spelling?

 

"Gade"?

 

And then there's the actual "gade" he gave this thing. 7.0? Maybe on a scale of 1.0 to 500.0

[Rickdogg]

The sad thing is, the picture is extremely small and you can still see major damage

[ArAich]

Hopefully 25 years from now he will really be "up to speed"...

 

[Rickdogg]

Hehehe. Looking at the pic makes me cringe. I wonder what his "NM's" look like

[LucyBop]

What a toad! the book looks like sh*t!

[ArAich]

Maybe you should buy it and slab it....that way you can display it with your 9.2 to show the wide spectrum of cgc grading....kinda like a before/after picture....

[Rickdogg]

Grrrrr. Don't remind me of my 9.2. Totally undergraded

[ArAich]

oops...sorry to spoil your morning...go take another sip of coffee...I know I am...

[seank]

What he meant to say is: "It's fine for READING." Not much else, IMHO.

I sent him this email:

 

No offense, but that POS is a GD at best. VF? What book are you looking at??

[OldGuy]

My e-mail:

 

You might think about investing in a grading guide It's grading like this that will insure the continued success of CGC.

[uclapeterg]

LMAO! How about "3 better than good - close to very good" is a more accurate description!

[COI]

Yeah, but what do we know Rick? He's been collecting for 25 years, which is as long as I've been alive, and before you were a twinkle in your mother's eye.

[valiantman]

See...this is precisely why there's never an "Ugliest Baby" contest.

 

All mothers think their own child is precious, regardless of how ugly they are.

 

So, here we have the same effect...Ugly Comic + Mama's Love = 7 out of 10.

 

Would you date a girl who called herself a 7?

Chances are...you'd know she was really a 3, even without seeing her.

 

Besides...who puts their money down on auctions that say "Piece of [Cr@p] For Sale"?

 

[musicmeta]

That's a 7.0? How many comics has this person looked at in 25 years? under 3?

 

[doyle033]

hes got a number two for sale as well. if you look at a few of his items you will see that all of his items are on his own ten point scale.

MTU #2 same seller

Second Issue of Marvel Team-up

Grade:7-8. In better shape than issue one (see other listings from me).

he should start his own grading company. then the labels could be designated

7-8 in better shape than my issue one

8-9 way better shape than my issue one

9.5 a long way better shape than my issue one

10.0 so much better than my issue one you wont even realize that they are both comics.

i said he should start his own grading company... i meant GADING company

[Rickdogg]

Like always...love the emails

[Rickdogg]

One thing i've learned is never agree to a blind date that your friend (a female) sets up with one of her friends that she considers "pretty cute."

[LucyBop]

Hmmm.... I was recently someones blind date.........
