The more rules we add the less sellers/buyers will be motivated to post. The more rules we add the more threads that will get yanked for not following the rules. The more the above happens the more the boards will become a shell of what it used to be.

Maybe we can have buyers prepay before they even submit an offer? Maybe sellers can prepackaged all books so there are no delays in shipping? Maybe we can have sellers disclose what they paid for a book? Maybe we can have buyers tell sellers what the most they are willing to pay? Maybe all books have to be graded so no issues with raws? Maybe all books should be in new cases with no Newton rings? Maybe all sellers need to have 10 transactions before selling?

So we are adding a rule where it's never been an actual issue on the boards? Cool cool cool

Honest question. How many times has not having the book in hand (outside of SS/modern 9.8 presales) been a board issue? Please don't include Dr. Balls recent issue with Clink as the board member did in fact have access to the book through the new purchaser who effectively screwed Dr. Balls on his transaction with Clink. *Full disclosure, I don't presell anything cause I don't want to have to deal with an issue like there is a hair in my CGC case type * Just don't think we need to be adding rules where they aren't required.

What's a legitimate pre-sale for SS? How does that differ from someone like @VintageComics who will list the scans and the CGC grades when they are shipping back to him? Where instead an SS opportunity can go WAY more haywire than a return ship from CGC (Bad signature placement, grade isn't a 9.8, timeline of signing gets pushed) I'm glad we are adding more rules as even the most basic ones can't be followed right now

@greggy @Iceman399 Oh there is still plenty of mounting ;)

Isn't that the way society is? Someone gets burnt drinking hot coffee and all of a sudden we have to put warning labels that coffee cups contain hot coffee. Someone swallows a fish hook so they now come with warning labels harmful if swallowed. Adding more rules will just reduce the number of sellers that have already been reduced to page 1 lasting weeks.

@joeypost he's semi local and to my understanding hand drops the books off to cgc. Not sure if this is something he'd facilitate or not but I'm sure if you offered to compensate him you guys could work something out.

Ya we need the same scrutiny that we give to auction houses that have been caught shilling their books, buying their own books back, pumping video games to buy the video game to make a news article claiming they sold the most expensive video game ever (when they, they auction house, were the GD buyers of said most expensive video game). Many many many dealers I trust over the auction house shenanigans.

What's the verdict on when you finally get your econ sub back from CGC after over a year and a few of the slabs are cracked from shipping? Is this a sucks to be you fight with Fedex or does CGC fight with Fedex?

Based on the notes he should cpr it 😂🤣😂

Aug 12 shipped Friday.

@CGC Mike

I wonder if some of these have been pressed. I should buy them crack em and resubmit and get a half grade maybe even a full grade bump!

@NewWorldOrder We are still waiting on your video

8/12 still in GEI hopefully I'm close.

But but but it didn't go through heritage

There will be a few in here who will say the sale doesn't count cause it wasn't shill bid on heritage and a private sale.

@bedrockcomics what a sale good sir!

That chip in the spine is rather distracting for a 7.5.likely factored into the pricing despite that pos sticker on the case.

It's a 9.8 and CGC says it's a 9.8 cgc = gods so just sell away. Or send it to an auction/dealer and let them deal with it

@CGC Mike I know you are asking for recent issues. Received this one last week. Another hair in encased in the slab
