How much of a down grade?
1 1

3 posts in this topic

Hi and welcome to the forum! This question is best addressed in the Hey Buddy can you spare a grade section. Not sure a single pen mark alone can be given a grade drop, you always need to assess the book in question for grade as if it did not have the fault, then see whether the single fault affects the grade. For example if this was a 2.0 (I know it's not but this is a 'for instance') then the pen mark alone wouldn't matter. You see where I'm going with this. Hope this helps!

I wager it would be stuck somewhere in the Fine range, since the Mint/Near Mint range doesn't tolerate any imperfections at all, and Very Good usually involves at least some visible wear or tear.
