Submitted my grade at 9:45 this morning. All the judges have read my PM, but none of them have responded to acknowledge it.

 

I've shocked them into silence with my superior grading skills.

 

One of us finally stopped laughing and answered! (thumbs u

Actually when that happens it means:

You are so far off on the grade that the judges feel sorry for you, change your grade ASAP..

I have to agree with you. If that SW8 was a 9.8, this is an easy 9.4. :/

Even the wrong grade guesses are still great guesses. They just happen to be based on defects that people think they see.

 

Or what they didn't see - I'd be willing to bet a lot of people missed the corner crease on Book 1, otherwise why all the CGC 9.4's?

 

I once asked Steve that very question as I had a pristine book with a tiny cover crease and after I posted the scan he told me that it *might* get a 9.4, assuming the rest of the book was perfect, something that Book 1 is far, far, far from being.

 

Here is the book in question, which is 9.8+ quality with a tiny crease that looks more like a production chip that *might* get a 9.4.

Hey Joe, are you sure you didn't switch scans on us, my eyes are straining just to see the flaws you speak of. Maybe that's why I'm in the middle of the grading pack :lol:

 

Oh yea, Round 6 grade submitted....and the tag team response hm

 

(thumbs u I applaud your conviction.

 

Just like Joan or Arc.

Burned. :flamed:
