Predictions for my ASM #361 grade13725

Collector Ale private msg quote post Address this user
Hey people, so i'm planning to send over for grading my ASM #361. However, i have seen a few flaws here and there. As you'll see in the pictures below, it definitely doesn't go for a 9.0 or above. I would like your thoughts on a potential grade. Also, in the last picture you'll notice something like little scratches on the bottom of the interior page. This goes for like 5 pages and then it is ok. I saw in some other posts that this was propably a manufacturing error but i cannot be sure

I’m still at work but first impression, maybe a 7.5

Thank you sir. May I have another? Siggy private msg quote post Address this user
6.0 as is- Not much better with a press IMO
The bottom edge is common for the issue, but there are many that don't have it.

I know you didn't ask, but unless there is a sentimental attachment, I personally don't see a reason to slab it

The grading companies are tough on modern books...6.0 sounds right to me.

Personally I wouldn't even bother with slabbing it.

I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie. flanders private msg quote post Address this user
5.5. not sure if that's muck on the bottom of the front cover.

With a press, you might pull a 6.5/7.0, but that’s tops.

At that grade, I wouldn’t recommend slabbing it. Put it in a toploader and store it safely away.

Nope. There's no muck.

Cover, 8 pages before the staples, 8 pages after, back cover. MrNotSoNice private msg quote post Address this user
I am thinking 6.5 to 7.0. The corner bend brings it down. Nice book though!

I am thinking 7. Looks to have some pressable defects too.

6.0 at best IMHO. Im also in the camp that it not worth slabbing.

SpongeBob Comics #1 sells for $991! Joosh private msg quote post Address this user
Looks 7.5 to me, and that’s ignoring the microtears at bottom edge. I’m confident CGC and CBCS ignore them, based on the 9.8 copies I’ve looked at from both graders. but even at a 6.5 this book has been selling for $100, so slabbing isn’t a bad idea at all.
Carnage is getting a lot of attention in 2021, starting with a Venom 2 trailer rumored to be premiered during the Superbowl.

While they say it doesn't effect the grade, Im not a fan of the off centered cover.
