comics_ross Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 (edited) After several years hiatus and 2 children I am back to the hobby I have reduced my collection from 4 000 to around 500 and I will try to obtain some new books, but in order not to disturb the family budget I want to sell some of the more expensive ones for which I do not care any more. The problem is that I am not a professional grader and that is why I would need your help before listing it in eBay UK. I do not want to mislead the prospective buyer. Any help will be highly appreciated! The main problems which I see are: 1) the book is not centered and some of the pages are trimmed almost to the panels (there is no white spaces at the age of the page) and 2) the book is a little creased on the bottom right corner (cover and pages). The pages are creamy (not white, but not brown either). Thank you in advance! Edited December 29, 2017 by comics_ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ccmp99 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 not sure if the off center panels would cause a deduction, but considering what I can see I'd say 7.5 to 8.0. Might be able to boost grade with a dry cleaning and press. comics_ross 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have checked the prices and unfortunately the cost for pressing and cleaning will not be covered by the increase of the book price. Moreover living in Eastern Europe sets some limitations for the comics collectors which have to pay a very high postage costs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
