I think the reasoning CGC uses is:

"Hey, let's give this book a WTF grade, so, ThirdGreenHam can use it in his grading contest". 

"That is the best idea I've heard all day.  Pass the crack pipe"

Its more like sometimes CGC gives wtf grades, and those go to the top of the contest picks!

greenham himself has said several times he was 'surprised' by the grade-and into the contest it goes!!! :frustrated:

How?  That Joe was over 5.0 to only blind people and CGC.  That spine roll and spine crease usually is a killer.

The Joe's wear was limited to the area around the spine. The edges and both front and back cover looked very nice. Of course, I have 20-200 vision, so that helps.

14% were within +/- One Grade

6 was the actual number of  Double Bullseyes (was 5)

39 was the largest jump up the standings

toro is coming. :eek:

toro has climbed back from a low of 104th place to 23rd.

 

Congrat to grebal for getting the closest... :applause:

 

 

I really wouldn't worry about me in this contest, I am all over the map.

I bumped that Joe up to a 6.0 because I didn't  read the part of the detached centerfold.  So in doing that I lucked into my first Double bullseyes.  doh!

how is it a 6.0 even without the CF detach with all that vertical creasing and large spine creases crossing it? ya'll are better men than me if you can sell that book raw as a 6.0, 'cause I would sell it as no higher than about a 3.0
