| Ah tape. The death of comics. Tape pulls really hurt the grade. |

 I bought a meat grinder on amazon for $60 and it's changed my life.

| Tape pull. Looks like a 3.0-4.0 range based off other defects in the photo, and other defects not visible. | ||

 This is what I roll with for any of my books of value. More expensive than tape but much more safe for the books. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Beney117 Remember, grading is an opinion and not an exact science. Without seeing the back cover and if this book didn’t have a tape pull, it would probably fall in the 5.0 to 6.0 range. Unfortunately the tape pull will probably cost at least a point or more deduction from that. |

| Maybe a stupid question, but is there a way I can restored it so it look more appealing, or does any kind of restoration is considered an alteration that make the comic worthless? | ||

| @Beney117 don't do anything to it. It will pretty much render it worthless. | ||

| @Beney117 - Any attempt at “fixing” it would take away roughly half of its current value. | ||
