Point Five's 5th Annual Grading Contest: ROUND 1 BOOKS! 5 5

[Point Five]

3. Suzie Comics #56  

Hey, wow. I thought this was a 2.0 and 1.8 wouldn't have surprised me, so it certainly seems like this cutie got a GA bump that eluded the Action. Go figure!

Round 1 results thread coming up, with Round 2 starting right on its heels!

I thought the 1st and 3rd books were pretty straightforward. Bullseyes. The Tec was different with that upper right hand corner. I guessed 8.0. Figured it'd be somewhere in that VF range in any case.

The reveal.

2. Detective Comics #411  

I guessed 8.5 for this one and was happy it cooperated. Really nice copy, just that small corner crease and a few light spine cracks. 

It so happens is the grade I was satisfied with as well, but mine has a real bad miswrap, same as my 8,5 hulk 180. Wanna trade?

2,2,Bullseye!

So 0.5! 

Remove a decimal point, I think not!

I was a little off on the first 2 books but nailed the last one.

Me as well, I should have clarified, I was off by 2 on the 1st two, and a bullseye.

But my math was off anyway

Anyway.  5pts

That Batman v Predator was a nice find. I never see those in the wild for whatever reason.

[frozentundraguy]

I wanted to give Suzie a 2, but thought too long and wound up at 1.5

At that place I had found the set years ago but were newsstands so I sold them.

After reading of course. If I get you in the Christmas boards exchange, then Lord willing I'll try to return the favor!

Been contemplating sending the ps 1 games in, just time and money, but Lord willing

I hit the first, but missed the second (7.5) and third (1.8). No cigar.

[Sandflea]

Over graded the Action by 2 and under graded Suzie by 1, but bulls on the 'Tec

[Darwination]

Bullseyed the first.

Full Grade down on the Detective.  I'm blaming Point Five for the soft blacks on the first picture

Suzie, half point down. 2.5, eh? I was wobbling on the 1.8.  Give the cutie her due, though, she can tune my piano anytime.

tough business, this.

[Old Fashion PB and J]

7 points. 3.0 on a detached cover is BS IMO I wouldnt go past 2.5, and the other I couldn't see past a 1.8 its pretty beat up.

[Bmattioli86]

Got my first bullseye! Yippie! 
but was wayyyy off on AC #61 it’s almost embarrassing 😆
