neirfin Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Would a spine binding mistake affect value negatively or positively, or at all? This book is under $100 graded 9.2 but there are no graders notes, and i wonder if this is why it got a lower grade... See in the pics and hopefully it makes more sense than the way i describe it. Book looks clean to me, but im no pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adampasz Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I believe the technical term for this is "mis-wrapped cover". neirfin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I passed on this one and paid a tiny more for one with a better grade and no flaw ? adampasz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
