Took some pictures today...feel free to make a guess! I always felt the book might be a 4.5-5.0 myself With this one selling like it is, even the lower grades have gotten pretty high .

I would give it a 3.0 at most, the Marvel chipping on the right edge is a bummer

The chipping is annoying for sure, but most people I have asked have stated in a lower to mid grade copy it would not as drastically affect the grade as most might think. Also a decent press and clean would do something for the grade on this one.

It's difficult to fully grade a book and determine how much the grade could improve through pictures Best of luck with it!

This book will definitely benefit from a press/clean. with a press/clean this could possibly bump to 3.5/4.0

With the book moving in current price levels, its actually selling higher at 3.0 than 4.0 anyways with the most recent 3.0 at 15,600

the most recent for a 3.5, 14,300
the most recent for a 4.0 13,100

so the lower the grade given the more its apparently selling for .

Then it probably would benefit from writing your name on it. Or we should all agree that is a temporary anomaly?

Either way you look at it, it's a monster book. If you put this book up for sale it will sell. Great book that will continue to increase as the x-men get closer to an MCU appearance....but get it pressed...theres definitely a grade bump there.

If I decide to sell it, I could sure sign it for you ! As for a temporary anomaly, anything is possible.



Did you want it personalized to "masculinity takes a holiday?"

No, you can use my real name: Lebron
Fast rising markets having temporary pricing anomalies in the different grades. I see it all the time currently on GPA.

@Darkseid_of_town - Another gorgeous book, Mike! I think it would be in the 3.5 to 4.0 range, which is about twice the grade on my copy.

A friend of mine handed me a paper sack back in 92 as thanks for a favor I did. This was one of ten books in the sack. A 3.5 or 4.0 is quite alright with me although I do believe a press and clean might move it as high as 4.5

Ed the flip side of that deal is you have the entire run whereas I only have kept the books I really liked except my run from about 94-350 If you sold your run I am sure you could buy a much nicer copy than mine hands down

Today @ 3.0 the book is at 16,800
3.5 15,600
4.0 19,200
4.5 22k


Safe to say the "bubble" if one were to exist, has not begun to deflate so far.

Update those numbers my friend. I wouldn’t let my 3.5 go for less than $20k or a really nice SC 22 for anyone out there that’s interested in a trade.

This book IMO is far from being ready to deflate. Still trending up.
