"Popeye"

Sorry for the late reply, but new to this and didn't get notified when posts were made. My google phone takes really good pics and have a lightbox for selling comics, so thanks for the kudos for the detailed photos. That being said, your comments are on point and even got another Star Wars 1 this week that had those odd markings on the bottom and right side. I was able to press those out and feel this is a better grade than the slab shown here, but we shall see! For selling this slab, I'm planning to acquire another 9.6 and give it as a gift to both my nephews. Yes, its in my head and it bothered me, but on the hunt to add a 9.8 to my personal collection. Thanks for your input!

I have a Seal Jumbo 160M and works great.

So, I got a Star Wars 1 which is graded as 9.6 a couple weeks ago. I've been going back and forth wondering if this book is truly a 9.6, since it has minor corner damage to the bottom right, some minor waviness on the bottom and right edges, and looks like the pages are off white, instead of white. For the slab, there is some minimal marking in the corners, the grade sticker is a little off center and the book is slightly shifted inside the sealed insert. I have over 30 slabbed books, just started sending in my raw comics this year, and of these I have about 5 which are 9.6. Everyone one of these books has sharp corners with no damage. Even some of my 9.2/9.4 books look better than this book. I'm concerned that the slab was opened and a lower grade copy was inserted. Is this even feasible? I know when I removed a comic from a slab last week to get pressed, there was minimal damage done to the slab, if any, and crazy glue could be used to put to back to together. I got this at a good price, $275 all in with shipping, and not sure someone would go to that length, and I'm probably looking into this too much. Yes, I could re-submit it to CGC to get re-slabbed, since I like the new slabs over these old ones, but I'm still within my 45days to return to book and wanted an honest opinion on your thoughts. I did reach out the seller last night to ask about if he submitted it and I was concerned about these issues, but he has not replied yet. I've attached a few pics and here is a link to the gallery for more: https://goo.gl/photos/oP2ghs9d5YGZX99a7 Thanks for your input. This is my first time posting.. so if I posted something incorrectly, please advise.
