chrisco37 Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 It would have to be a million dollar book (even before the current insanity). And, it’s not a myth. It’s real and it’s spectacular. It was a legit 9.6 when I saw it. KCOComics, MGsimba77 and KirbyJack 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drummy Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 I remember a thousand years ago when Doug S. supposedly asked CGC for a 'page quality review' of his FF #1 9.6, and *voila!* the book went from 9.6 ow to 9.6 wp. Could be the same copy? Anyway, people were a little steamed that the high roller could ask CGC for favors without a full re-grading. D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D Okay so that means it was reholdered then resubmitted for PQ review? It had to have been in one of the original slabs with a cert # that low or not?

I've had two slabs where the cert was unsearchable. They showed up after calling cgc. I guess some cert #s slip through the cracks. I suspect this masterpiece was originally graded around 1999 2000? What I'm really wondering is if there's actually two 9.6s or is that a mistake due to the page review??? Apparantly there were a few more careful owners of FF5 than FF1 according to the census. I suppose It would make sense since it was about 8 months between release dates. Both these books are so...godly...holy...glorious...drool worthy...you name it‼ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
