So I can live with a 1.5 only 1 point from a 1.0 but that ASM #300 as a 9.2? Where did that grade come from with a color-breaking scratch on the spine side covering almost 3/4 of the book?

There should be some explanation on how this book got such a high grade with a scratch on the spine that breaks color on almost 3/4 of the book. Just asking.

Mr. Zipper Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 On 2/11/2022 at 10:37 AM, Jaylam said: I looked through lots of graded books with large pieces of the front cover cut out or missing like this copy of Rex and found nothing graded higher than a 1.0, so this book at 1.5 is an outlier unless someone can find another book like it graded at 1.5 or higher. Agreed. A book should not go over 1.0 with a significant portion of the title graphic gone PLUS another corner chunk missing. I suspect it was given a bump because the book is so clean otherwise. The key takeaway is that (apparently) there are no grading absolutes. Comics4All 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Zipper Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 On 2/11/2022 at 9:31 AM, Croatbag said: I agree lets talk ASM 300....i see a couple ticks on the back which is why I went 9.4....front looks flawless to me. It's the color rub from the black parts I guess that are taking it down some more? That's the only thing I can come up with. I just ignored it thinking it was from when they were stacked up and transported. Let's be honest... the scan was too small and too grainy resolution for anyone to get a truly detailed read on the ASM 300. Black covers do not translate well in scans. Is it scanner glare? Is it a scuff? Is that a spine tick or a scanning artifact? You're just guessing. I blew it up to 200% and thought I saw what appeared to be a handful of ticks in the spine as viewed from the back. Plus a little corner wear. I got it right at 9.2, but frankly it was 50% luck. Using that photo it could have been anywhere from 9.0 to 9.6. .
