  1. As a comic collector and dealer I can say 2 things with absolute confidence. The stock market at it's best has never been able to duplicate profits I have been able to find in comics. Coming in and trying to invest in comics while not knowing what you're doing is no different than if I came in and dumped all my money into a few stocks because some investing guru told me to. If you don't take the time to really learn comics (takes years), you will not be successful.
  2. Seems ambiguous at best. Books will always go up and down, tastes change, focus change, people come and go. If you really want to sit and act like it is guaranteed that books will continue to drop then we can certainly discuss how much Crime Suspenstories 22 will drop by at least 15% in all grades over the next year if that suits you? We obviously can't track everything and many blue chip books become less stable around movie hype.
  3. You're still collecting something, a memory. And if in fact you have to make the choice between those things and comics there are obviously other factors including your personal funds available for entertainment, priorities in said entertainment, etc. But to say the Deadpool movie can't "move the needle on those books may possibly be one of the most short sighted answers available. How much do those book currently sell for (through rises and dips)? They have ALWAYS been readily available, many people had bought them years ago and prices can only climb so high. Did you expect Hulk 181 to reach a million in 9.4? No, it will always rise and fall and when you rise into the 5 figure market your buyer pool shrinks by leaps and bounds. People have hardly "moved on", maybe YOU have found social outings to be more exciting? But I can say that I attend typically 2-3 shows a month "I don't say concerts", usually hit a Birds game once a season, and eat at different restaurants a few times a month with the wife. Still spend plenty of time with comics, building cars, playing in my own band, and raising 2 teenage boys who are multi sport athletes. Just because YOU struggle to figure out how to better manage funds and time doesn't mean the world has moved on.
  4. The fact that people are charging insane money and not even performing the songs live is disgusting at absolute best.
  5. Did not do well this round. I undergraded most of these severely..... Link to my Ebay anyone
  6. 2 bullseye, 2 off by one grade. Totally effd up the showcase and gave it an 8.0!
  7. On site grading at Heroes, it's gonna get worse.
  8. Grades sent. If any grades do not match mine, I will assume CGC forgot how to grade.
  9. This song kills me. Reminds me of sitting on the forum here listing comics, this song playing as my oldest son kept playing it on repeat when he was 2. He is a Freshman in HS now..
  10. Currently Teargas, IG is TeargasHC out of NJ. We are going to record a new single in June.
  11. I sing for a hardcode band and cant afford to tour due to having a family. But I toured alot in my 20s. Unfortunately not very impressive. BUT we did get to play some sweet gigs so far this year where nobody has been seriously injured, that parts pretty impressive.
  12. Okay, offering this here for a day or 3. It was on my Ebay but is now removed. gets the book, feel free to PM a reasonable offer. Paypal, Check, Money Order, or however you wanna pay is fine.

Hanuted Thrills #5 CGC 3.0 $2,950.00
  13. Book has zero business being a 3.5. I feel like these lower grade books are being pushed up, VG range books should still maintain some eye appeal.
