I would say so. Only six graded higher by CGC. Nothing higher than a 9.4![]() |

"Good grade" as in an accurate grade; or as in "wowza... an 8.5 on this book"? | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Nuffsaid111That is a seriously tough book in high grade. The color scheme makes it look dull to begin with and most copies look they spent alot of time rolled up in some kids back pocket. |

That grade looks correct to me. Back is about perfect. Top left corner blunt plus spine ticks bring it to 8.5. Great book though! | ||

From what I can observe from just front cover - yep - seems about right. AND It's not just a good grade. It's a fantastic grade ![]() |

As much as I would love to own that book in that grade, I think my satisfaction at owning a 5.0 copy would run at 90%-95% the same. Maybe one day my finances will be at a point where I can justify paying a 10x premium for a 5% increase in personal satisfaction. One can only hope. | ||
