  1. While visiting the London Comic con one could see the succes of CGC being there. The CGC booth was very busy.

     

    But postage is getting crazy and that's what killng it for me. Getting CGC books from the states is crazy with postage prices like $35 to get one book. Sometimes even more (Seen $60 and even higher). On top of that you also have the legal govenment tax and import theft. In Belgium that is 21% and extra import tax. A raw $3.99 book quickly turns into a graded $100 book.

     

    Imagine a good grading company would set foot in the UK. No more high postage cost, no more import tax! I would finally get my own account! (And with that UK £ just crashed after the whole Brexit vote it is even more intresting)

     

    This company however will not get my books. At least not for now. The website alone is full with errors (terrible loading on tablets) and that should be there business card to attract costumers.

     

    Come on CGC open an office in the UK!!!

     

     

  2. Are there any pictures of Baker doing work or with one of his books or artwork around? Just wondering. If already asked or shown, Sorry I asked. Don't get angry about it, just show me the right path to it.

     

    Now on with the show and show of more Baker goodies!

  3. 1 flight. I love the idea of being able to fly without the use of any machine

    2 NONE! Sorry, don't like that kind of music

    3a Walt Disney. I want to know everything about his ideas

    3b Joss Whedon. I'll take him for a fly in the sky. Then talk about my -script up there.

    3c Jessica Rabbit!

     

  4. Alibaba is the world's biggest IPO, and looks like it will open around $90/share.

     

    As an investment, would you rather have 100 shares of Alibaba or,say, a lower grade Amazing Fantasy 15?

    I take Disney stock long-term over them. Disney has been very good to me! :cloud9:

     

    +1

     

    I'm at +168% return on my Disney stock. That plus the dividend.

    I love trading stock. But I only go for long term investment. Always look at dividend. Stocks with no dividend is a no go for me. (Of course look at other stuff too)

    Just bought some SEAS stock. The massive drop is a dream for long term investment. Dividend over 4% and the stock will adjust upwards in a couple of months. (I could be wrong, but that's the risk. Even if I think minimum risk on this one.)

     

  5. Never, ever ship overseas for one.

     

    Every time I see someone post something like this I want to slap them in the face with a Union Jack.

     

    There is tracking. There are plenty of trustworthy non-US boardies. This is a stupid stance to take.

     

    +1

     

    +1000

     

     

  6. Impressive 9.8 on the HQ #0, with art on front and back. It's nice that the artist was mindful of what he was doing :applause:

     

    Romano Molenaar is the artist. (Did Birds of Prey for a while)

    I saw him create this piece during the London con. From outlines till the finshed product. Amazing piece. Picture doesn't do it justice!
