Mars76 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 (edited) Shock Suspense Stories #9 5.0 Sub Mariner #36 2.5 Wonder Woman #159 6.0 Strange Tales #180 7.0 Showcase #94 4.5 I really whiffed it this round. I had Sub-Mariner at a 2.0 originally but gave it a bump after my experience with Batman #2 in the last round. WW messed me up. I was a little conservative with strange tales, and I still think that Showcase has to many big color breaking creases to be a 5.5. On the plus side a lot of these grades have me reconsidering sending in books that I thought wouldnt get a good grade Edited February 4, 2023 by Mars76 Point Five 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makeminemarvel Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 My best round ever in the two contests I’ve been in! Three bullseyes. Had Strange Tales at 6.5 and Subby at 2.5. g-man and jcjames 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mysterymachine Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 I gave WW a 6.5. I guess I was too focused on the outer edges of the book to even see the subscription crease. And it's not hard to see if you look for it. 9 points total this round. It's now a competition to stay out of last place. ChrispyC66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With thousands of CGC books owned and far more passing through my hands over the years, I have Never Ever seen a book with creases that big get a 5.5! I have a ton of 4.0s that look just like that and I have 4.5s that blow that book away with far less wear and creases! If I could ensure I could ever get 5.5 on books like that, I would be re-submitting dozens of keys tomorrow!
