I bought a cgc graded comic book online,but the top corners and bottom corner have small cracks.
Should I leave it like that or get it regraded?

Hmm...It sounds like the outer shell may have been opened previously. You could send it in for reholdering. This is way cheaper than sending it for regrading. I would be concerned whether or not the outer case was cracked open/tampered with. Could you post pictures of the damage?

Jokerwolf, can you see if it's possible for the inner layer to come out of the hard case or is it just cracked like a drop?

Agree with Ox. See if you can get it re-packaged by CPG rather than re-graded. Perhaps this appears to be semantics, but there is a cost difference... Repackage is cheaper.

If the case is cracked it's not classed as a graded book is it? I think I read that somewhere anyway.
