For me, it honestly depends on the book.   It took me a long time to find a copy of ASM 129 that I liked.  I think I had this conversation in a thread with @THE_BEYONDER... At the end of the day I took a 9.4 over a 9.6 due to a nicely centered cover. 

This is my 9.4.  Compare it to a 9.6 with the white back cover peeking around.  I know it was common for bronze age books but for an iconic cover I wanted something that presented well and not going higher by a .2 at the time was irrelevant.

I'd have to agree, that 9.4 looks nicer.

I'll put it in a different perspective. I have passed up chances to buy 9.9s with a 1/16"- to 1/8" white strip miswrap to the front cover in favor of a perfectly centered and aligned 9.8 of the same book even when price was not an issue.

I, also, finally found my cgc 9.8 copies of ASM 129 and 100 with the perfect wraps that I could live with.
