ComicSpa Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Here is an Avengers #8 that I had encapsulated and received a 7.5. Looking at the following defects would you crack the book to have it cleaned and pressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William-James88 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Simple answer: did you press and clean it the first time you sent it was was it ever pressed/cleaned before? If the answer to both is "no", then go ahead and crack, press, regrade. Worth a shot. ComicSpa and Sauce Dog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Pontoon Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Pressing and cleaning are not going to remove small tears or color breaking creases. What do the grader's notes say? silverseeker and The Lions Den 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tear top edge FC will keep this book down and I believe the 7.5 is the max you will get regardless of how flat or clean the rest of the book presents ComicSpa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lions Den Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 That top edge is a bit of a problem... ComicSpa, Tbone911t and silverseeker 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Ries Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 I guess if I wanted an 8.0 or 8.5 Avengers 8 I would have bought one. That's a real nice 7.5 you have there. The top edge will prevent anything over 8.0. Press and clean or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funnybooks Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 what's the price difference between a 7.5-8.0? Compare that with the cost of C&P, resubmit for grading and the risk that the book gets damaged somewhere along the way...it may be more economical and predictable to sell this 7.5 and buy an 8.0?
