Below is a detailed guide outlining the factors we consider and what each grade represents. Grading Criteria Cover Condition: Creases and Folds: Creases, especially those that break color, significantly impact the grade. Minor non-color-breaking bends are less severe.Surface Wear: Includes scuffing, soiling, or any abrasions. A clean, bright cover is ideal.Corners and Edges: Rounded corners, nicks, and tears along the edges are examined closely. Spine and Staples: Spine Stress and Wear: Includes spine rolls, stress lines, and any splits or tears. The condition of the spine is crucial in grading.Staples: Staples are checked for rust, alignment, and whether they are original or replaced. Missing or rusted staples lower the grade. Back Cover: Creases and Bends: Similar to the front cover, any creases or bends are noted. Soiling and Stains: Any discoloration, soiling, or stains on the back cover are considered. Corners and Edges: Wear and tear on the corners and edges of the back cover are evaluated. Interior Pages: Page Quality: The color, brightness, and brittleness of the pages are important. Yellowed pages are common in older comics. Writing, Stains, and Tears: Any writing, staining, or tears within the pages are noted. Completeness: Missing pages or parts of pages will drastically lower the grade. Grading Scale: Near Mint (9.2 - 9.8): Almost perfect condition with only minor imperfections. Vibrant colors, sharp corners, and minimal wear. Very Fine (8.0 - 9.0): Slightly more noticeable defects such as minor spine wear, slight corner rounding, and minimal surface wear. Fine (6.0 - 7.5): More noticeable wear including minor creases, some spine wear, and minor surface wear. Still a solid, collectible condition. Very Good (4.0 - 5.5): Moderate wear including noticeable creases, small tears, and spine wear. Still structurally sound and collectible. Good (2.0 - 3.5): Major defects such as significant creasing, tears, and possibly some missing parts. Shows significant wear but still readable. Fair (1.0 - 1.8): Extensive damage including heavy creasing, large tears, and missing parts. Poor condition but still holds value for reading or completion purposes. Poor (0.1 - 0.5): Severe damage with extensive missing parts, heavy wear, and poor presentation. Used mainly for parts or extreme nostalgia.
