Just the other day I gave a book a grade of 5.725.

I am going to cut the eBayer some slack.

 

It seems to me if one uses a numerical system (as opposed to VF+, etc...) then there are numbers that could be used if an item falls between CGC grades. In other words, it is not up to CGC to define the "only" numbers that can be used.

 

Of course Jeffro grades with finer precision and a more incisive eye then I would advocate, but I think the general argument is sound.

 

Stephen Ritter, a well-respected dealer, grades between CGC grades and in my opinion grades fairly.

 

Of course, whether or not this eBayer, cited in above posts, is a good or fair grader is another matter.

Damn right!! I'm all about the accuracy. Kinda like the time I gave a book the highly defined grade of 8.53987462578799 and a half.

I saw that book and you TOTALLY overgraded it. It was clearly a 8.53987462578799 and a quarter.

Sure, but that doesn't apply here. There is a big difference between 8.6 and 9.6

Weird the seller seems to be a decently successful comic person since they have over 350 listings.

Agreed.

 

Last line of earlier argument --"Of course, whether or not this eBayer, cited in above posts, is a good or fair grader is another matter."
