Adrift Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 (edited) Hey folks, this is my first post here. Hoping someone might be able to help out with a grade. Lies flat. Great looking cover with a light bend on the bottom right corner. Back cover has a decent sized chip from the edge taken out of it, and there's some wrinkling near the bottom staple.

grendelbo Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 5.0 Thanks for posting. Adrift 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Februus Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Unfortunate about the chip out that holds it back. But I’m gonna say 5.5 to 6.0 on an otherwise nice copy.. just an opinion here on a subjective flaw.. welcome to the circus..

Westy Steve Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 That book will go a lot higher with a good press. If the wrinkle on the back can be satisfactorily smoothed out, I think you could get an 8.0 out of it. You're allowed one defect in VF on an otherwise NMish book. Worst case, 7.5. But as it sits, you've got a scattering of small defects, and that puts it in the 6.0 range. Adrift and Februus 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 With a C&P…7.5. Welcome to the boards!! Adrift 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrift Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 Wow! Thanks everyone. I assumed maybe a 5 or possibly 6, so what you're all saying seems to be in line with that (of course, it'd be nice if it were higher with a press). Thanks for the warm welcome! grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidpg Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I figured 7.0! Adrift 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverage12c Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Wish my copy were in this condition. (It's a beater/reader). I think the small piece out, and the tear at bottom staple, will cap this at a 6.0, even after a press. Just my 2 cents Adrift 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRoboto Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I’ll go 6.0 - 7.0 Adrift 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
