Ed Hanes Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 So, I got this from mycomicshop.com awhile ago and was just reviewing my older ASM. Apparently, I never opened this one when I first got it. It was graded 6.5 by them and I am really trying to figure out why. There is only one spine tick that breaks color and a couple non color break spine creases.. and no other noticeable defects. I have had books that look like this come back as a 8.0 from CGC, without a press. (maybe they are grading the bindery as a defect).. I have noticed some other books from mycomicshop undergraded..I am not complaining..I mean..their loss for undervaluing their books.

grendelbo Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I wouldn't call this 6.5 either. More 7.5. Back cover shows moderate- wear along with the flaws you already mentioned. I also see slight color-breaking creasing on the front cover right bottom corner and minor blunting upper right corner. In my limited experience with mycomicshop, they grade conservatively which is a win for us buyers. Thanks for posting. Ed Hanes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
