  1. 90s IMAGE > Marvel > DC
  2. Id like to hear CGCs reasoning for not following their own guide to grading with the X-Men 9.9 then. Should be interesting.
  3. I see 2 defects. A mis-wrap and a dent from the staple under the cover. The mis-wrap is a manufacturing defect. The dent is a handling defect. = 9.8
  4. To me, NM is off the rack condition = 9.4 What you see on this cover is probably common with that book and most likely from being boxed, shipped and then unboxed/shelved. Look at all the slabbed copies that you can find and do some research.
  5. Ill never buy a graded book with a sig that wasnt witnessed.
  6. Well, the dude on Pawn Stars authenticates sigs for Rick but he didnt witness them being signed.
  7. So CGC is acquiring the authenticating team? And when they all eventually leave to start their own company? CGC gonna train people to authenticate sigs? Frightening.
  8. Here come the 9.9s ! YOU get a 9.9! And YOU get a 9.9!
  9. Kinda looks like a slight bend in the pics though...above the "d" in "and"...could be lighting I guess. It probably didnt get pressed and maybe had the type of bend only the expert eye can catch.
  10. Hey, when I was a kid in the 80s my comic shop in Providence, R.I. was called Excalibur. Well, Starship Excalibur to be exact but its still cool to see another shop called Excalibur...even if it is in Canada.
  11. My oldest comics are from 1979/80 and I have all my books in current size bags/boards. They fit perfectly, slide right in - right out...and look fantastic. Even the double sized books fit in current bags.
  12. Yeah but who really cares if an issue of Spectacular Spider Man is a 9.6, 9.8 0r 9.9?
  13. Should be a 9.8 because 9.8s are not perfect. Thats why we have 9.9s and 10s...right?
  14. Spectacular Spider Man ? $300,000 ? 9.8 condition OR BETTER ?
