| She had to have come into this collection from someone else, inheritance, garage sale find, and thought they'd be easy sales, while knowing nothing about handling and grading. And I don't see any bags anywhere, you can see the comics stacked up to the side in each picture. | ||

| Trendsetter, or "go home ebay you're drunk"? 🤣 Just stumbled across this little gem. Apparently he has graded it as a 44.75!! There are some others in there as well (Action 252 graded 73.00) https://www.ebay.com/itm/122303580090  |

| @shrewbeer I'm more impressed with the "special protective shell" that is "sealed with security tape." CBCS and CGC had better watch out, there's some real competition now! |

Yep, well CBCS had to get their raw grade sticker idea from somewhere lol  He didnt just go to a 1-100 scale, but he added TWO decimal points 9,999 grades anyone? |

| Well, a 99.99 must be better than a 9.9....'cause that's how numbers work. Or at least that's what that seller seems to think. | ||

| Comic Connect ticks me off with some of there listings for raw books. For example,they have an ASM #20 in VG++/4.75. What does that mean? If it's between a 4.5 and a 5.0, play it safe and say 4.5. All I can think of is the movie "Christmas Story" where the kid dreams he gets an A++ on his paper about the air rifle he wants for Christmas. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by shrewbeer I'm not sure if anyone realizes but before the 10 Pt. system, Overstreet had a 100 PT. system. A grade of 35.0 to 54.0 was considered VG. A page quality was based on a 1-10 scale using the OWL (Overstreet's Whiteness Level) Card. A 7 in PQ would be considered tan since the range is from 5-7. |

Yep, that was graded using the ancient Overstreet system. The seller is probably an older cuss who defiantly decided he would not change with times.  |

| I actually wouldnt mind a 100 pt system. But add two decimals on top of each 1-100? Nope, thats just getting overkill sick. 🤢 | ||
