  1. You mean the CGC Don't Care labels or the CGC Didn't compensate ones?
  2. FYI - Title says Marvel Mystery #2 when the issue is #4
  3. Normally the Gaines file copies come with a certificate. The pedigree is noted on the label so I don't see why CGC wouldn't recognize it.
  4. I'm thinking that maybe having two Rick's on the same show might confuse the masses. Being that you also both are a bit chatty. It's like being in a conversation with Doug, you think you are in it but you are just a listener.
  5. As a dealer who sets up at Chicago this is not something I would like if I saw it happening. First off it gives "All dealers" a bad name just by association. Second, I sell CGC product and anybody tampering with holders is not good for all of our businesses. Lastly, promoters don't need that kind of seller at shows.
  6. I second this post, what dealer was doing this?
  7. For those with no sense of market reality I am now offering Blazingbob's burial services. Coffins, jackets, makeup services. If you are going to bury them, at least make them look good.
  8. Comics are so hot I've created a new sideline - Blazingbob's Barbecue sauce when you are slaughtering the hog.
  9. No they line up for the NBA, just ask Lebron
  10. All of the major auction houses are collecting taxes if it is meeting GA's state tax rules and does business in that state. Ebay will collect sales tax in GA because it does business in that state.
  11. Any platform that provides "free" abilities to sell comics have taken off. Been on the CGC forum selling threads lately? As far as your Ebay comment goes ebay is following the law and collecting sales tax like it is supposed to. Sellers who are in that state and not collecting sales tax are risking an audit and frankly state tax authorities are not the ones you want chasing you.
  12. My database goes back to 1990, GPA pricing, OSPG, some competitor's in case the first two are light on numbers. When there is no sales data you have to "figure it out". And if it is a large number be prepared to explain how you came up with it. When at a show I can tell when there is light sales data from the GPA button pusher on the phone taking longer then usual.
