[KingOfRulers]

A classic! I'll be posting my new X-men #101 also!

Looks like a pretty solid 5.0

[marvelcollector]

Wear on lower half of spine knocks it down to a 7.0 IMO...

Is that a crease in the LRFC? Even so, may still hold on for the FN/VF...

Nice book!

 

Congrats, King

NiceBook! 5.0 Looks like there might be some creasing going on that isn't that noticable in the scans. Look close at the middle of the front cover.

Congrats King! Can you give us a few details on the defects? Are those BC tears? or Printing creases? or Both?

Yeah, ok..I was a bit overzealous on this one...but I still think it's a tad north of a 5.0.....

[KingOfRulers]

Thanks Divad, and everyone who submitted a grade!

 

And to answer your question, all of the defects that are on the book are visible in the scan. Those sadly are two clean tears on the back cover, and not printer creases. That is a crease on the bottom right front cover. Small chip next to the issue number box. Basically the rest of the wear is what you can see. Just some minor to moderate miscellanous cover wear.

Thanks MC for the grade. Yeah, a 7.0 is a bit on the high side. I can go with a 5.0+ though.

[inconceivable]

VG/FN 5.0 with an ever so slight chance for a bit higher because most of the wear/creases is on the lower spine area.

4.5 are those two tears on the back?

If production creases then 5.0.

[topofthetotem]

Looks like 5.5 to me.

Great book!

[-cryptkeeper-]

a nice 5.0 , i love that one, great book King

[divad]

Nice copy King!

 

Realistically, with the spine trauma to the FC and the two long tears to the BC I think you're looking at a strict 4.0

 

regardless what the lemmings say

[KingOfRulers]

Thanks again for the grades guys! Funny that there is such a variance in grades for this book; as low as 4.0 and as high as 5.5.

That's Mr. Lemming to you.....

I would probably have to go with 4.0 as well, maybe a weak 4.5 but I think the BC tears would keep it just shy. It certainly presents much better than grade. Congrats on the pickup, King!
