Wes B Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 The census shows not very many of these are graded. The one 9.8 I could find was listed for $200 usd. There are also tons of these at cover price that most likely aren’t pristine condition. I’d have to bet this would come back a 9.8. I bought this when it came out 31 years ago. should I grade it? Or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisco37 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 I wouldn't. Seems like you'd have to hit a 9.8 for it to (maybe) be worth the effort. Did the $200 9.8 sell or is that just the asking price? If you can find them for cover, there's no real demand for it.

Sigur Ros Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) Completely agree with Chrisco if you're hoping it adds value for a sale. Recent sales of 99 cents up to $12. You'll be lucky top get $40-50 after spending $40 for grading and shipping both says.... although you do get free storage in Florida for 7 months. No way that guy is going to get $200. But, if it's a book you like and want preserved, that's a different story. Edited October 21, 2021 by Sigur Ros Brandon Shepherd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadroch Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 One of the better done 3D books. Some of the pages really pop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've slabbed lots of stuff you "shouldn't" slab, but I don't think anything good would come of slabbing this. On top of everything already said, I don't think this book will come back a 9.8 due to the partial reader's crease at FC BL. Squarebound books are hard. djzombi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
