PGMm New Mutants 98 2 2

[Average RE]

Hi there hope you’re all well, please could you take a moment to grade my New Mutants 98 newsstand. No missing pieces or cut outs nice flat copy, it hasn’t been cleaned or pressed

7.0/7.5

For calibration, see my 8.0, which I still don't understand how it didn't at least hit 9.0 (no noticeable color breaking creases). Authorized CGC handler was expecting 9.4.

Thanks mate 👍🏻😊. I have heard from people that CGC seem to be giving harsh grades lately. I saw a cgc 8.5 on eBay with a dog ear top left so you never know after a clean and a press and a happy grader 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😂😂😂

@scburdet Yours seems to be undergraded. My newsstand came back an 8.0 also, and it pretty clearly has more flaws than yours. 

Agree on your assessment of OP's though. That color breaking crease on the black is going to kill the grade. 7-ish

7.0 / 7.5

@scburdet someone had a bad day I guess. Maybe try again?

my facilitator actually sent it back b/c he assumed they mislabeled it. I'm starting to tip toward crack & regrade (cheaper than buying a new one. I didn't pay much for this one in 1999/2000). I think they're reluctant to admit errors in grading judgement. If we'd gotten it sooner, it might have been cracked and sent to the Liefeld signing.

8.0 probably... 8.5 maybe with press and clean

Thanks for posting.
