| Does anyone have a copy of the Crow #1 for sale that would A) be a good candidate for a 9.8 grade or B) have a 9.8 graded copy for sale I have a 9.4 and 9.6 but want a 9.8 Both my copies looked exceptionally good to me and I sent them off hoping for the illusive 9.8 but to no avail.  |

 I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for.

| I have my set of Crow that I want to send in having been a huge fan since it was first released. That first issue has a very low print run and with it having a lot of black in the cover it can be hard to pull a 9.8. I made sure to pick the absolute best copy at the time and cherished it, so I am hoping it will grade high as well. I will be having it pressed first and it will come back a red label since James signed it back in 1993 or 1994. Great looking books you all have too by the way! | ||

I'm tempted to send my 9.6 in for a pressing and regrade. My only worry is it came back lower. Maybe send my 9.4 first for a press see if that makes a 9.6. They I could send the 9.6   |

| @nikki666666 would you consider purchasing the graders notes? might have a clue as to which book (if any) is a candidate for a grade bump. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by nikki666666 You should have them pressed, not sure how it couldn't help. Perhaps that 9.6 could get a 9.8 and it would be much cheaper to have them pressed than to buy a 9.8, since one of those sold for thousands recently on eBay. |

| @Kinsella5 @GAC surely CGC would have to bump my grade if they are pressing a 9.6 and regrading? And like you say, for the price of a pressing its worth the risk | ||

 I bought a meat grinder on amazon for $60 and it's changed my life.

| I would resubmit the 9.6 see if you get a pass through different grading period Buy the notes if you didn't submit it yourself and copy/paste the notes in here to see if pressing is even possible. I've had 9.6 SS pressed by CCS and they came back 9.4 so I wouldn't necessarily go that route, honestly. |

Quote:Originally Posted by BigRedOne1944 That is true, nothing in life is a guarantee, I can't imagine a pressing wouldn't at least help but it depends on what is keeping them from being a 9.8. As others mentioned perhaps the grader's notes would help. |

| There may not even be grader notes for a 9.4-9.6. The trend lately is to assign grades without offering a reason why. | ||

| If theres no graders notes I'd try pressing the 9.4 first. Without a better than good chance I wouldn't risk the 9.6. | ||
