I wrote less than a week ago that I managed to make it back into the top 500. A few days later I was bumped out again. Today it would take me over 300 registry points to get back in the top 500 so not only am I dropping I'm plummeting. Based on my budget the only CMA comic I could afford in April would be a 300 registry point comic which wouldn't get me back in the top 500 NOW much less in 3 weeks. If I let my budget accumulate I could afford a 640 registry point comic in May but at the rate I'm dropping that won't even come close.

The moral of the story isn't woe is me. After all there are much better measurements of a collection than registry points but it really shows that CGC's popularity is increasing fast. I'd say it's only a matter of time before I'm pushed out of the top 600. Who would have known there were this many deep pocketed collectors posting there comics on CGC's site. It will be interesting to see how big CGC can get.
