Ed Hanes Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 So this was graded by CGC as a 9.2. IDK exactly when but the case is their current model. I bought it inside the slab but when I noticed the defect at the bottom left corner, I decided I would rather have it as a raw. Now, in your opinion, does that flaw warrant a 9.2 ..I dont think it does..it has at least 3 spine breaks too. It has white pages. It's a really nice copy still, glossy ...it's just better as a raw Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bottom left corner of the front cover has impact creasing and a bit of color flake. The spine is very good despite the ticks but near it at the top of the book there's some color rub best seen in the number 2 of the price indica. 9.2 Thanks for posting. Sharp-looking comicbook. ☮️ Ed Hanes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder how much your educed value by taking it out of holder Probably zero for this particular issue (and for those who dispute this, please don't make this thread about raws v grades..take it somewhere else). I will buy slabs sometimes with the intention of deslabbing them if they essentially have the same value as raws or if the slab is old. On two occasions I bought slabs where I later think the grade is wrong and I deslab them. I wouldn't want to pass that on to someone else for a variety of reasons. But I dont plan on selling this particular issue for a long time...so its monetary value is secondary. Edited July 10, 2021 by Ed Hanes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
