Does anyone know how bad this would affect grade? It looks minor and non color breaking.

Feel free to use my post as a checklist. multi007 private msg quote post Address this user
Is it the ink from the signature you want us to look at, or something from the book itself?

Can you circle the area you want us to look at?

I snorted just a little. jaysonslade private msg quote post Address this user
We collectors, as a whole, give graders way way way too much credit. Let’s be honest. They are here to catch the big stuff that we normally might miss. (Resto, missing pages, coupons, trimming, etc.) Then it’s a logical guess, within reason, from there. And finally a coin flip. I love my graded comics. But to think any grader micro screens down to this level on a consistent basis is a bit much. All too often a 9.4 could be a 9.6. And a 9.6 could be a 9.8. It’s all a logical guess.

If this is CGC, they’ll put a nice much bigger crease in the middle of the spine when they slab it…so that’s the least of your worries.

May still get a 9.8 regardless…hard to give you an honest answer but I’d be very surprised if they catch that in the 2 seconds they scan over it. Just know the higher the value, the better the graders they use. So lower tier books can have wild swings in grading.

Which grading company are you thinking, and that likely matters at this point.

I agree. If you’re that concerned about it and you don’t believe it’s color breaking, press it and forget it.
