102 bump!

I had a 5+ year hiatus that all I posted was the modern books I was picking up weekly. Mostly due to life and other responsibilities. I've been back giving bad advice and snarky responses for almost two years now. I still have times where other priorities will keep me from having time to formulate a coherent reply to a topic so I fall back into lurker mode.

the original LCS Lots of mentions of the Million Year Picnic and the original Newbury comics. Frequented both back in mid 70's to early 80's. Million Year Picnic is still around but haven't been there since probably 1980 or so. I remember trying to convince my dad that he should buy me the ASM#1 on the wall for $200 (no clue on the grade). I still have this purchase from there circa 1977 for $2.75.

Assuming you aren't talking about That's Entertainment? I remember buying from a store in that area a couple times back in the mid to late 80's but can't remember the name.

I'm still looking for my keys. Non "I think I'm funny" answer, is I came here after a few years on the comicpriceguide.com boards which were/are a bit of a joke. Started learning a ton, realized there are some great deals to be had here so I've hung around.

appreciate what you do. Seriously, if you ever need Beta testers for things like this just ask. I'm sure plenty of us here would help to make sure things go smoother.

Seems to be working quite well now and the redirect captures the full URL and query string. https://www.cgccomics.com/boards/topic/497901-board-error-messages-and-outages/page/5/?tab=comments#comment-12022563

Checked in with my LCS on my submission (4 books economy) and still SFG since 9/2 (delivered 7/12). Still hoping for a Christmas miracle.

I'll take a step further and provide the code that will likely work with a little bit of tweaking to unsure you redirect the full path and not just send everyone to the main URL. Since this is hosted on a linux based server, there is a .htaccess file that can manage large scale redirects painlessly. RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?cgccomics\.com$ RewriteRule ^/boards/(.*)$ https://boards.cgccomics.com/$1 [R=301,L]

It would be great if someone on the IT side could put in a redirect in place for the old URL.

Hmmm, didn't see that announced anywhere but maybe I was drinking heavily. Thanks!

Been trying to access https://www.cgccomics.com/boards/ all day but now the only way I get in is https://boards.cgccomics.com/? Is this expected? The old URL is giving me: Error 502 Ray ID: 6a172c3abc0d1809 • 2021-10-21 02:49:27 UTC Bad gateway

I had to login incognito, clear cookies and do a triple lindy just to post this!

acting up today...

6.0, corner creasing keeps it from being higher.

8.5, still a nice book.

Seems pretty solid otherwise so I'll say 8.0

Good with a 7.0 here, bottom corner crunch keeps it from any higher.

7.5/8.0

7.5 from me.
