Albert Thurgood Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Maybe I need new glasses but I can only see one small defect on the FC that is no worse on books graded over 9 by CGC. Aside from some marks on the BC, what is the rationale for grading this as low as 7.5? Croatbag 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funnybooks Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 For me the defects are almost entirely along the spine...rounded corners...multiple ticks along both wraps...BC dirt and a few moderately sized creases along the lower spine edge corner that can be pressed out...I can see 8.5+ after a clean and press... spideyfan68 and Albert Thurgood 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from some marks on the BC, what is the rationale for grading this as low as 7.5? There are a couple spine tics on the FC, the biggest being the one on the bottom in the black, the other few are very hard to see as they are in the yellow. All the back issues I think a C&P will take care of mostly so yes I was quite surprised too at all the 7s and 8 being tops. One thing I don't see much in PGM threads and even though I'm new I'm guilty of as well so I will try to change myself. I think adding some context or narrative to the grade helps us all learn and understand better as opposed to just throwing the grade out.

Glassman10 Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 8.0-8.5 The two upper corners front and back are both a bit rough and on the back cover , something is going on in the lower left part of the comic in the "magic set" portion. It's really difficult to read a light colored comic on a white background. It masks a lot of stuff.. or maybe I need a better monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
