What you mean? This my faverite thred in whole GCG boreds. Got the carpets steam-cleaned yesterday . . . opted out on the "Scotch Guard" - too toxic!

I couldn't figure out why this thread was still going on . . .

That is generally correct, price goes down when demand lessens. However, when selling a comic, you only need ONE buyer.

Boobs. ALWAYS a good theme . . . Why didn't I think of that?

By request, I'll be doing a $100 progressive thread tomorrow night starting at about 8-8:30 PST - haven't figured out a theme yet - any requests?

He's the buyer of the auction, not the seller. Actually, I think he might be both . . .

The voice of reason.

Hey, my Uncle left me a bunch of comic books, and I want to turn them into money real fast. I don't really want to learn anything about comics, how to sell them, or get to know anyone around here, I just want to turn the inheritance into some cash. Now don't think I'm dishonest or disingenuous, but what the heck do I want with these old comic books, I just want the money.

Yes. And, because you obviously overlooked something.

I haven't noticed much of a difference at all. My last sales thread brought in more that usual. Fairly priced quality stuff moves, overpriced junk sits. Same as it ever was. I keep waiting for deals to start fall into my lap...it sure hasn't happened yet. Yes, and it's a good time to be in school instead of the unemployment line

I see a voluminous amount of books for sale, but not a voluminous amount of books being bought - a reflection of the current economy. People need to sell to generate cash, and buyers have circled the wagons. I am not impressed overall - discussion ON!

I thought perhaps with 10 posts unread, I missed something, but no . . . the usual status quo

Tom, I think 50% would be your best expectation - as you know, it's a lot of work matching buyers with just the right book. The last thing a dealer wants is excess inventory, particularly in the current economic climate. Large purchases are even more difficult now due to same. My guideline on collection buying (and trust me - I'm a small fry) has always been: make sure you are able to recoup the total cost within 3-6 months. Then you can take your time and parse out the profits on the remaining inventory (if you have the space and a patient and loving wifee ) Also, my guess is that you have already sold many of the "easy" sells, which makes the collection on the whole less attractive for outright purchase, and more attractive for consignment. As to 30%, that is probably about right for consignment, as 50% to 100% profit margin is the goal for resellers. And finally, NO I wasn't watching the USC/Cal game . . . but I did watch some of the cal/OSU game yesterday bestest, D

(thumbs u (thumbs u again. I don't see how it'd be enforced, but I think it is a good rule. Also if possible, making it so people must have 100 posts before creating a thread in the FS forum? Maybe? Which could be 100 graemlins, rattled off in the half-hour following registration. He said a 100, not 50,000. Now THAT'S a

Did it finally get pulled? (thumbs u Technically it may not have broken the rules but clearly that's not how we do it. Hell, I could post a link to my photobucket account.....and there'd be some comics there for sale. And some porn. And boobs. And David Hasselhoff naked. But I digress....

Did it finally get pulled?

Perhaps you were not paying attention? Apparently the mods aren't . . .

Thoughts about gcox current selling thread? How many guidelines are NOT followed?

Because of the hash oil cover?
