Neon228 Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 What grade do you guys think this Amazing Spider-Man #361 is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scburdet Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 8.0/8.5 Looks like at least one of those tears started as a gripper hole, but was enlarged. grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nschenks Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Hm could still see 9.2/9.4 but depends on how they treat the gripper holes. If they deem them bigger than normal (whatever that is) or altered it'll definitely knock it a bit. Gripper holes are common on this issue I think, so I'd scope some graded copies in the same range on eBay or MCS to compare. Good way to get a grasp of what's allowed/not allowed in certain grades for certain books when it comes to manufacturing defects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
