Mathayus Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 I picked up a really pretty Avengers #16 from my LCS for a good price and took a gamble on some weird staple placements. I didn’t have it in my collection so I took a gamble anyway. The staples are not in the spine and there is no spot where old ones were. is it a factory error or long ago did someone put them in there? The covers are not detached and there is no evidence of reglueing. thoughts?
theCapraAegagrus Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 It's safe to assume that they were simply stapled in an odd place during assembly.

Mathayus Posted August 8, 2021 Author Posted August 8, 2021 Do you guys think it would get a green label?
grendelbo Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 No. I've seen quite a few SA Marvels like this.
Mathayus Posted January 5, 2022 Author Posted January 5, 2022 Thank you everyone for the comments. I am about to pull the trigger on submitting this one before the price changes. would this factory defect get a green label?
comicparadox Posted January 5, 2022 Posted January 5, 2022 No. Blue. I’ve seen an Avengers 4 that graded CGC 9.4 with even worse staple asymmetry. Fugly book…
