At which grade would these chips be acceptable? 1 1

[William-James88]

A seller on e-bay just told me that the book I ordered has worsened in condition since the time they took the pic in the listing, it now has more chipping. Original grade assigned was 7.0. What's the max grade a book with this kind of chips missing from the cover could get from CGC?

Based on the grades some of the promise books received, 9.0?  

I personally would put this in the 6.0 range assuming the rest is pretty nice.

thanks, that is also the range I put it, here is the rest of the book. It's not amazing but there are no defects worse than those. The pics below were taken before the new chip.

6.5?  A press should flatten out the top of the back cover, and put you at a 7.0.

So those 2 chips would still be ok at a 7.0 if the rest of the comic presses out well?

I think so.  It's a very solid book except for those two relatively small chips.  Worst case you're at a 6.5.

7.0 tops.

Just get it out of there before the owner chips it some more.

This comic is in a better place now (mine).
