Reviews:5.0 out of 5 stars Concise, thorough grading guide April 24, 2012 What I like most about this eBook is it doesn't waste words or space with unnecessary information. It's a quick read but jam-packed with useful information. He covers the C-scale in detail, as well as the AFA grading scale. You'll also learn what defects affect your action figure's grade and some "lesser known" methods for determining the value of your action figures. I consider this book an important resource and recommend it for anyone who wants a quick go-to guide about action figure grading. By Scott Christ - Freelance Writer and Health Guru
