It would be a shame for a competitor who has stuck with it to the end to be disqualified for a typo. If they don't see this in time to correct it, I mean.

grendel013 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Although considered "mid-grade", slabs graded 6.9 should go for a premium just because. flashlites, Point Five and mysterymachine 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet it's more like 30 seconds at most looking at the cover (not counting resto-check). Moderns would get maybe a 5-10 second once-over. The volume of books they have to look at per hour would make it impossible to spend 2 minutes/book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an ebay VG++ We must be browsing different eBaay listings. In my experience, an eBaay VG++ is generally much closer to a CGC 2.5. D-oh!

Nschenks Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) Grades in. Sheesh, another tough round--pretty comparable to round 2 for me (maybe a tad easier...unless there's more hidden water damage lol). Thanks for another great contest, Mike! These old books are a great learning experience for me. Edited August 5, 2023 by Nsschenks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
