<description><![CDATA[I agree with Robot - Heritage Auction site guide is excellent. I also like this one<br/><a href="https://www.nostomania.com/servlets/com.nostomania.CatPage?name=ComicsGradingMain" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.nostomania.com/servlets/com.nostomania.CatPage?name=ComicsGradingMain</a> <br/><br/><br/>The simple way to think about this is - a 5.0 comics (Very Good/Fine) is in "average" condition. Flat - slight wear on cover, normal interior page fading over time.<br/><br/>6.0 - 9.0 are various grades of "above average" condition - nice color, few stress lines, and lightly faded pages. <br/><br/><br/>2.0 - 4.5 are various g4ades of "below average - from 2.0 with a few tears and worn pages to 4.0 - 4.5 - just below average with spine roll or extra wear. <br/><br/><br/>Hope this helps.<br/><br/>KDS]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Hi im going through about 1100 comics and just trying to throw a quick condition on them before I learn more about doing it. any tips? like for example, I know 9.4m is supposedly new from the comic store condition, but what would make the difference between fine and mint and fine and good. below are a couple of examples. any tips or pointers would be great, like when the spine is toward the top of the comic does it automatically become "x" condition?<br/>Thanks ahead of time.and another<br/><i>edited by xamial on 5/20/2019</i>]]></description>
