[Ken Aldred]

I was going to make a Marvel Chipping comment myself, but it’s already looking quite popular.

Enough to know a grade such as VF- exists, yet...

To be fair, he has used a minus declaration to draw attention to some minor flaws which keep it out of the VF stratosphere.

He’s technically correct and not misleading. It is below VF.

A little. Only a bit.

I look forward to having many a laugh if this turns out to be an ongoing thread.

I like this game.

From the same seller in my previous post.

 

Looks like it’s from the ship’s ballast copy or Prince Namor pedigree Collection.

So many options in our local buy and sell to pick from for this topic. Here is one of my favourites but there are so many others just like this.

 

Maybe send it for a pressing.

First off - Congrats to @zzutak for a great new thread....

Now, for my "entry" into this topic.

As the kids today say, "To be fair...." I did not win the most recent CGC grading contest and so maybe I should not be judging this, however, I am trying to figure out in what Bizarro world someone would have to live in to give the below book an "8.5 VF+".   Oh, and pay no attention to that sticker that says "475", as the actual asking price on this beauty is "$1,000".

I was hoping to see some slabs.

This isn't technically graded, but it says "Brand New," and to me that means NM, and I see some flaws that could take it below that.

This thread will be super-awesome-entertaining right up until the moment when someone calls out a seller for redonculous grading and it turns out to be a boardie, resulting in much rage and a swift locking. If we're lucky I'd give that about four days.   

 

I’ll take the under!

Wrong thread - that one belongs in the most overpriced comic of the week thread!

I wonder why the seller has a "zero" feedback.

Great thread 👍

This thread is going to be an eBay commission honey hole.

They were high when they graded it?

I ate Marvel chipping when I was a kid.
