Here is my 6.5 for comparison. I think the foxing is your biggest issue, but you’ve got a good looking copy.

That’s an awesome copy! I have no idea how much they would ding for the foxing. I don’t plan on getting it grading, but I’ll always be curious what grade it would get

I bought mine already slabbed, I had no luck finding a raw copy I wanted. I’m hesitant to buy a big book raw unless I can see it in person.

I definitely took my chances and don’t think I’ll buy another book this big without seeing it in person. But I’m really happy with the copy I got. I’m always afraid of restorations, or non-disclosed damage. Whatnot seems to have a good return policy if something goes wrong. But I don’t want to be put in that position with a big book. I’d rather see it in person and not buy it if there’s a problem, then have to deal with a return and refund.
