Comixroc Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 So, this VOB was a 9.8 which I cracked and sent out for the signing. Somewhere along the line, the book took damage. Likely from being mishandled. I am trying to salvage the book. My first choice is a re-sub to CGC for press and regrade. Can it get to a 9.6? I took pics of the only damage I can see. What say you guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 hard to evaluate in the holder, but I lean no. 9.2 seems about right with those dings. These don't look very fixable Raze and Comixroc 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROBTOTHEC Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Even with a press you cannot eliminate a color breaking crease. I would never be OK with a cbc getting a 9.6, IMHO... Comixroc and Raze 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRoboto Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 No, not 9.6. Max 9.2. 1990 book. The spine length crease keeps it at 9.6. The ticks take it down to 9.2 imo. Raze and Comixroc 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Pete Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 maybe 9.4 with a c&p after crack, but cgc is getting tough these days so it could be very well possible they could take it down to a 9.0 too Comixroc and Will96 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Pete Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 (edited) I think the current 9.2 on this one is pretty warranted and definitely will not get a 9.8 or a 9.6 on re-submit even with a c&p because those ticks are very much color breaking , my friend.

grendelbo Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 It probably would not grade above 9.4. Thanks for posting. Comixroc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nilo2 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I agree with others. 9.2 is the ceiling for this copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
