7.0 to 7.5 - there are several spine ticks with color breaks up and down the spine, front and back. You have a small crease and a little folding on the bottom right corner. Also looks like maybe some foxing on the bottom of your interior pages. Don't slab - if you're looking to sell, there'll be someone looking for a low grade copy and you'll get well above what you paid for it (assuming you paid cover price). | ||

It's got a lot of color breaking spine stresses. Back cover has color rubbing. Bottom right front covers corner has a fold. Rear covers top corner has a fold. Both front and rear covers have micro scratches only noticable in correct lighting. Corners are blunted/rounded. I'm going to have to say 7.0 |

Quote:Originally Posted by Pre_Coder I would slab it even at a 7.0/7.5 for conservation. Its a damn good looking book; high gloss, deep colors. May even get that “check mark” grade. PS. Lmk if want to sell. |

@Pre_Coder I was not aware of the ink running low thing, thank you for that! The colors are quite deep on this book. @HulkSmash Much appreciated! I'm debating on sending it in. I may sell as I'm not too attached to the book per se but not sure what a 7.0/7.5 fetches these days. I'll need to check GoCollect and eBay sales. |

Quote:Originally Posted by HulkSmash IMO, if this book grades 7.5 or below, it will most PROBABLY (dare I say CERTAINLY) garnish the "check mark". |

If your plan is to sell the book on Ebay, you'll likely get more for the book non certified. You can check completed Ebay sales for books in the 7.0-9.0 range raw selling very strong. When you add all the fee's associated with slabbing and shipping. Not much upside unless it was 9.2 or higher. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Pre_Coder I think I'm in agreement with you. I'm interested in knowing if generally that's a good thing or not? I've never owned a book with the checkmark. Do collectors avoid them? Do they proceed with caution? Not care at all? |

@GAC there’s a 7.0 CGC SIG SERIES on ebay at $165 right now. GoCollect FMV $220 I would consider the “check mark” a plus. If i could buy this book at a 7.5 or i could the same book at a 7.5 that deserves recognition for the fact that it looks/displays better than the given grade; ill go with the “check mark”. |

Maybe I should’ve looked on my Mac instead of my phone. It didn’t look that bad on my little screen, but I didn’t zoom in. Can’t wait to relook one a little bit. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by GAC I can't think of any reason why the "check mark" would be avoided, It simply means the book presents nicer than the actual grade. And that's probably at arm's length. |

If the viagra is working you should be well over a 9.8. | xkonk private msg quote post Address this user | |
I have a CGC 8.0 that looks the same or worse, so I would be a bit more optimistic than the crowd so far. | ||
