Your 8.0 Silver Age can be 9.0's in 20 - 30 years.

I just realized that by hanging onto all your Silver Age comics for another 20 - 30 years, your VF's will all be NM's. CGC will be offering the same grading criteria then as they do now with Golden Age. All you gotta do is look after them better than the other guy. Whadda' ya' guys think? Is it really possible?

So what will Darth's 10.0's be in 20 years?

 

HEHEHEHE

That's the beauty of this whole idea.

I don't know if a 10.0 can still be a 10.0 in 20 or 30 years. Is it possible? Gotta be easier for your VF's to turn into a VF/NMs if they're gonna be grading em like they do Golden Age now.

I think you are whistling dixie here.

 

If anything I expect grading to TIGHTEN in the years, as must surely happen, grading competition comes in for CGC and raises standards.

Also, the reasons for different eras recieving different grades is more to do with the differing printing processes/paper stock than the books actual age.

 

So the answer to your question is no, IMHO.

exactly....the grading will only get tougher in the years to come....(natural human progression I guess?)

I wasn't really being all that serious. My big reason for starting this post was so we could start talking about the different grading systems in place by CGC. (Although to date they have not admitted anything) It worked, but instead of talking about it on this post, people have elected to start their own posts. I'm glad it's being discussed.
