A chronicle of the steps involved with having a huge sale on the CGC Boards
I'm having a huge alphabetized copper/modern sale starting on the boards starting 9/21/15, and running about a week.
Available will be the vast majority of my collection, about 2.5 long boxes and 30-50 slabs, somewhere between 600-800 comics I think?
This journal will be me cataloguing my steps and thoughts along the way.
Before I get to the actual journaling, here is a list of topics I think I'll address, althou
I'm sure no one else cares, but I'll check in on myself at the end of 2015.
Others are doing it. Now I am.
In no particular order.
1. Stop wasting so much time at work doing comic stuff - forums, shopping, reading articles.
2. Get my wife to go to a comic con. Double edged sword - if she likes it, could cost me a lot more money in the short and long run, and if she hates it....well no one will have fun.

Finally loaded my Darkhawks
So I finally did it.
I'm fully in the midst of liquidating my collection, EXCEPT I want a full run of CGC 9.8 Darkhawks, which was my absolute favorite new series when I was younger. I just loaded 16 comics in the registry, all blue 9.8's.

Another Top 10
Everyone is doing CGC Top 10's, tons of my comics are out for slabbing, so I will do my RAW Top 10 for my collection (which is by no means impressive). This will go Silver to Modern, mostly DC and Marvel.
Brief Background: Collected a long time ago, and my dad did more, got back into it in the early 90's, left comics again, got back in around 2007ish. When I was younger I liked stories more, and as I got older I like art (and covers more). Now for recent moderns I'm pretty
