wow I was following over street grading standards I do recall when CGC started CGC used Overstreet over the years somehow grading has changed over the years. are those red label cgc s higher grades now ?   things have certainly changed when. a book with a minor fold is considered a 9.4 in the old days this would not be a 9.4.

I did the same thing.  Hoping that my 'adjustments' for round 2 yield better results :)

For round two, I did just that... and faired much better.  

I busted out overstreet for the first time for the contest...would have been better off sticking to what I have learned here on the boards, my only grading experience so far. But I still have no clue how to grade some of these flaws, so I am glad to learn. You can only learn by committing to a grade like in this contest. Thanks cgc and mike!

now...I want grader notes!!!! :sumo:
