El_P Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Hi, I'm a new collector and have the opportunity to buy an ASM 300. I'm not experienced in attributing a grade and would like to get your perspective on the condition of this copy to assess if the price makes sense. I would also like to get your input on what looks like "ink transfer" (what looks like some slight ink smudges for a lack of better words) on some of the interior pages. Thank you for your help!

comicginger1789 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Th ink transfer you see on that book is very common. Common with a ton of late 80s books. Might affect the grade if you had a high grade copy (ie might distiguish between a 9.6 and 9.8) but here, it plays little to no roll. I would say 6.5-7.0 for this copy. The spine ticks and back cover wear along with some smudge marks in the price box have me putting it in this range. A press and clean could likely make it a strong case to guarantee 7.0. I cannot see 7.5 or higher. Link to post Share on other sites
johnnycoolxx Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 6.5. A press would really help with this one Link to post Share on other sites
