I was waffling between 7.5 and 8.0. That's a wicked crease, with a lighter double one next to it. It's otherwise a nice book, but far from perfect. I'm surprised they graded it that high.

Thx again for a brilliant contest!!!  I can still participate with my prize donations!!

I don't know how that would work since two grades could be being 0.4 off... I think he means TWO POINTS / INTEGERS / WHOLE NUMBERS  off.

(I guess it depends on the definition of "grade".)

That crease looks like part of the artwork. Kay likes to grade fast too. Really need to look closely to see.

That's not a crease in the lower right corner, it's part of the artwork.

How can that book be an 8.5

[LordRahl]

Wait!!! The Action is graded higher than the Superman? 

 

Good luck to those remaining!

I could not believe it either. I went back and looked at the books side by side. Supes was by far the better looking book. Maybe the insides made the difference?

Purely a guess, but I'm thinking CGC didn't like those corners on the Supes (color loss upper right corner, small tear bottom left).

Agreed though. I had 7.5 on the Action and 8.0 on the Supes.

It's a crease.

Then I have the same exact crease that isn't there either on my book.
