Well I put this copy up on Ebay and in the 15 hours it was up things got real......The fear of it selling set in and I took it down, I guess I'm not ready to sell at the price I was asking, I'm sure I won't regret keeping it

 

It's a very nice looking 7.0 and hasn't been pressed.... Just not sure I have the stones to crack it open.

 

So.... Joining the club!

Good call on not selling it, as is.

 

If you can get a grade bump if it is pressed, I would send it over to Joeypost or CCS for pressing/dry cleaning :cloud9: .....and then, sell it (thumbs u

Will they crack it open as well? I would be more than a little nervous to do it myself .... Next to my house and car this is the most valuable thing I own.... Like by a lot.

 

Either Joey or CCS will crack the slab open for you, no worries.

 

Packaged with the slabbed book, I would include the following, so the book is ready to go after it has been prepped for grading.....not that Joe or CCS would not give you more than adequate protection, I like to be (over) cautious and (cough) borderline paranoid when submitting my books for grading/pressing (thumbs u

 

2 Silver/Gold Full Backs.

 

Inserted into a silver/gold size Mylite 2 with the slightly concaved side facing upwards so the spine of the book is cradled......

 

Fold the flap , with the 2 fullbacks inside the Mylite2, and hold it tightly onto a flat surface...press out as much air as possible....then crease the folded over flap with your thumbnail......apply 2 small pieces of Scotch gift tape to seal the flap....careful not to place either piece of tape too close to the edges (especially the spine) ....seal the M2/full backs tightly.

 

Then place the sealed bag/boards into a golden age/super golden age or Magazine Mylite2 with the corresponding size of 1 Fullback....crease the flap, same as before and seal , same as before.

 

Or use a magazine top loader with a magazine full back, instead of the secondary M2/Full back precaution.

 

....then again, this is all likely overkill as either Joey or CCS will take the appropriote measures to protect the book before it is graded (post slab opening/pressing)..........I am as anal retentive as can be, when storing my slab worthy books.
