I'd be pretty sure it was downgraded because of spine split.

Hrbinger 1 is the hardest Valiant to find in NM. The cover stock was thinner so it was prone to staple tears.whetteon wrote:Heart breaking stuff to look at one graded lower then 8.5ckb wrote:http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 2241832142
I'd be pretty sure it was downgraded because of spine split.If it was a little cheaper I might consider buying it. But you can find a NM one at that price so why bother? (once you include the $7 shipping vs the $3.85 for regular shipping).

The scary part is... the book looks great... and it has the coupon...kryptonitecomics wrote:DOH!!!!!!
OUCH!!!!!
I agree not worth $18 bucks in this or any other universe!!!
So if it WASN'T in that CGC 6.5 holder, it would probably sell
for $25+ as an "ungraded, looks NM to me" regular Ebay auction.

I've said it before....and I'm probably going to say it again with the next words I type....but CGC has given me the most amazing sense of vengeance acquired ever. All these idiots....and that's the kind term...thinking that anything with a cover still attached is 'MINT CONDITION!!!' and these fools send their books in expecting CGC to agree with them....greg wrote:The scary part is... the book looks great... and it has the coupon...kryptonitecomics wrote:DOH!!!!!!

...and time after time after time, the words 'I was SURE it would grade higher!' makes me laugh maniacally. After YEARS of sellers being arseholes when I inform them that the FF #48 with a 3 inch crease isn't a VF/NM, and having them...UNBELIEVABLY...argue with me.....it just makes me so happy.
I *know* I shouldn't....but, I'm only human.

Someone already beat you to it... except they used Ronald McDonald #3.
