Aces88 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I came across this raw, unbagged copy of Batman 251. It's in pretty good shape considering, though the stain on the back cover is a big concern. It looks like water damage, but only affects the back cover -- the inner pages seem unaffected. Any thoughts on a grade for this book? BTW I really appreciate everyone's help with the grading. Hope to get good at this myself eventually. Galen130 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William-James88 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 CGC is rough on stains and water damage. I would say 4.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmbassadorSlip Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Water stains kill me when it comes to grading, but from what I understand this can't get much above a 4.0. If not for that water staining, a 7 - 7.5 IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theCapraAegagrus Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 4.5 IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 4.5. Expert press might take care of some of the spine staining. Could go to 5.0...IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
