Mutant Manatee Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Love me some Kinstler, so this thread is . One of the few Golden Age greats that is still with us. Not high grade, but I had him sign this one for me at San Diego in 2006. Sqeggs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The signed deluxe edition is only $30 from Bud Plant. It should be a no brainer for anyone reading this thread. Sqeggs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When CGC regrades another company’s slab, could they just drop it a half or full grade just to make themselves look better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crossover grades that I've gotten on CB*CS books that were graded more recently have generally been higher -- either the same grade or a half grade lower. PQ seems to just about always be lower, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PQ seems to just about always be lower, though. I would love to have GPA start collecting alien slab data to see how values compare. I wonder if your CGC 6.5 ow gets a boost for being in the CGC slab compared to a CBCS same or even higher grade as some have speculated. My preference would be to have a book in a CGC slab. I'm still waiting on my 25 book GA cross-over submission and will send in more but it gets expensive as I have raw submissions and still want to buy or bid on books Edited February 9, 2019 by telerites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still waiting on my 25 book GA cross-over submission and will send in more but it gets expensive as I have raw submissions and still want to buy or bid on books I know the feeling. I always have a backlog of books that I'm intending to send in. Given the slow TATs on most books, I try to space out my submissions both to space out the spending and so there's usually something coming back relatively soon.
