What's the rush in previewing the 5.5? If I was the 7.5 cosignor I would tell them to take the 5.5 to prevent any distraction. Close enough in grade and eye appeal to have an effect Where did you see the 5.5 preview (didn't see it on their site?) I agree with you though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to adjust the color on those photos. It's not natural at all, the color looks manipulated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty, but it was not a true Blue (had ct and glue on cover) It used to be a 7.5 slight iirc i bought it “unrestored” at sdcc 2011 I believe (for a dainty sum of 23k) it was pretty much 99%+ “unrestored”. Only a hint of ct and glue remained that didn’t alter grade (or so I was told) Edited June 25, 2018 by G.A.tor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the story behind the front cover ? the story is that me and another boardie bid up the cover to a strong price in the last few seconds on ebay. it was attatched to a backing board. Matt at CCS did a superb job of removing it. Every single experience that I've had with Matt has been golden. One of my biggest regret collecting wise was selling a married Cap 1 cgc 1.0 for $8k or so in 2011 or so(pretty good eye appeal for a 1.0). Paid a STRONG price for the cover but I have something to hunt for: a complete coverless. lhcomics, gadzukes and Knightsofold 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
