here's a question-a missing wrap gets a 0.5. like if it was otherwise a 9.0. but would it still get a 0.5 if it was otherwise a 2.5?

here's a question-a missing wrap gets a 0.5. like if it was otherwise a 9.0. but would it still get a 0.5 if it was otherwise a 2.5? That depends on the value of the book and the grader's judgement at the time of grading. For example, if there is sufficient value as a 0.5 it may get the Universal 0.5 grade rather than a 2.5. If there is more value as a 9.0 than a 0.5 it may get the 9.0 Qualified grade. I believe you can ask for a "qualified" Green Label grade (so it gets the qualified 9.0 with a missing wrap notation) if you ask as you submit it at the time of grading, but other than that you're at the mercy of the grader. Personally, much like a double cover book, I think a qualified book should get BOTH grades, the qualified grade AND the actual grade, giving buyers more info to base their decision on. Hope that helps.
