AROM11 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) I’m looking too see if getting it dry cleaned and graded would be worth it for selling this book. I have 5.5 K offer as is but am I better off getting it graded and cleaned? Thanks look forward to y’all’s suggestions.

Math Teacher Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I would certainly have it graded. By the time you get your book back, the price value may have doubled by then. Deadpoolica, Randall Ries, Flammenwerfer and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Ries Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I'd get the cover cleaned yeah. Pressed as well. No real color breakers there that I can see. Then you would have a roughly 8.0 book. Lot more than 5.5k then. Even now. Who's the lowballer? LOL! AROM11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Thurgood Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Isn't it a 7.5 now (BC excepted)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I believe that there is some rust on the bottom staple. I couldn't see from the outside book, but it's visible on the inside.

Zegeroth Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Looks like some rust on the centerfold staples. If so, the back cover is probably mold. I’d put this at 8.0 If the back is dirt. I believe anyone with a brain would not advertise a book with this much dirt. That’s mold. That’s a 6.0 book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure that there are very respectable folks on these boards, that offer a clean & press service, and can then send it in directly for you to the grading company. Unless you really need a paid membership for a single book AROM11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
