So let me get this straight, the comic store owner screwed you over on the Marvel Spotlight 32, and now your girlfriend's going to pay for a new one?

She saw how upset I was over the book, the owner refused to make it right with me. My girlfriend saw the book and the damaged and was with me so when we got back to the car she told me she would get me another copy for my birthday and for our 5 years as a combined present. She got me comics in the past such as America's Best Comics #16, Zip Comics #45 (been waiting for grading at CGC since June 7th), and Omega Man #3 CGC 9.6. 

 

To be fair when someone damaged her favorite purse so I got her a new one, so its okay for it to go both ways. It can't be 1 sided otherwise am out. Am not a ATM you know?

How do you even get a tear like that with a press? I'm no physics major but it seems so improbable. Was the book also cleaned prior to press?

I can see the corner splitting more easily than I can see that tear? 

You don’t. That was a handling issue. Gorilla hands by the look of it.

I'm late to the game on this one, but as I look at the before and after pics of the SME 15, there are some differences that make it seem like two different books. I highlighted them in the attached pic. Could just be the image quality, but I see these differences in all the pictures. Any chance the presser could have switched books?

Could be foreign objects pressed into the cover.

I prefer to think of it as the cover pressed into foreign objects..

I like to think of them as pressing into each other.

@greggy you're up.
