Magickyak Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Just looking for some public opinion on this book. This book is absolutely beautiful everywhere BUT the spine. So taking only the spine damage you see, what do you think this would come back as? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Collector Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Book is definitely sun faded. 8.0 is out of the question in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Five Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Just as an exercise, I'd guess 5.5 to 6.0 range based on the spine structure alone... a number of heavier dents and ticks there. With the color fade added in, not really sure but I'll throw out a guess of 5.0, assuming the back cover is clean with no creasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magickyak Posted June 27, 2019 Author Share Posted June 27, 2019 Thanks! Appreciate the feedback- I didn't notice just how bad the fading was until I compared it to another book so I can see that now and that would explain the price I got it for. If I could pull a 6.0 out of it I'd still call it a good buy. I'm glad I asked so my expectations would be realistic for when I send it out.

Point Five Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 I just randomly ran across this amazingly similar copy graded a CGC 5.5... take a look: https://www.dacardworld.com/comic-books/werewolf-by-night-32-cgc-5-5-ow-w-2017826002 The spine and corner wear is a little worse on this copy, the fade is maybe a bit worse on yours?... anyway, it's an interesting data point. robshannonups 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comicdey Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Yes. Too much spine damage but fade is the real killer in grade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
