PGM Giant Size X-men #1 2 2

So this is currently in a non-CGC slab and I'm looking to cross it over but wanted to get thoughts beforehand since the spread between grades is pretty substantial. The book is in great shape with the only noticeable exception being the lower spine side corner has a bit of crunch.

  So it's slabbed by the competition and your going to crack it and have CGC grade it then ?  What do you mean by the "spread between grades " ? ......This is new to me hope you don't mine explaining to me...... Are you worried it might grade lower from CGC ?

For example, 90-day average for a 9.2 is $6400 while 8.5 is $4400. I expect it would come back lower from CGC but would like to get a sense for how much lower before I do it. I just don't have a good enough sense for how much CGC would knock off for that corner.

CBCS books tend to sell for 10-20 percent less than their CGC counterparts at the same grade. So, while you might get a lower grade, having it in a CGC slab will make up for at least some of it. I'd guess an 8.0. I'd be surprised if it got less than 7.5 or more than 8.5.
