I am back looking for some grade opinions on this Xmen 4. This is a potential purchase so I do not have it in hand. Tape on the cover which isn't holding anything together. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

The right edge looks too perfect. Was it trimmed? | ||

On the 2nd photo, book open, story page 4 on the left, there appears to be a serious tear at whatever is showing below that page, midway up. Maybe the front cover? Although the first photo shows no tear. The area I'm looking at is a few shades darker than the page color, so I'm thinking cover. Also something going on at the middle bottom of the back cover. Looks like a tape pull or a tear, or both. |

@chester15 Yeah, that tear actually does show on the cover by quicksilver's neck. |

I'm at a 3.0-3.5. Tear front cover possibly by quicksilver. Tear at top of front cover, Or is the sticky tape on the front cover not being used to hold a tear together. Not sure if that's water stains on the back cover? |

Pictures are not good enough. Could be anywhere from a 3.0 - 4.5… Simple solution - request more photos. To help address trimming risk, ask for photos from different angles (including edge-on from top and bottom). |

I suck at seeing trimming, but it looks suspicious to me too. | ||

That must set the record for the number of grader notes left for a CGC book. Usually very brief, much less specific. Maybe a new grader. He'll be reprimanded. | ||

I think it looks like a 3.0. Nice looking lower grade book. | ||
