Purchases not self subs, but I plan to change that in 2023. I really like the slabs, even the gen 1 label. They make the Topps Gold Labels pop. I wanted a Parsons RC just to have one and I figured this was a good way to get one without breaking the bank. I like the potential of CSG grading as time moves on. But it takes time to build the brand. A little patience.

I'll second it(or 3rd it, 4th it) Happy Thanksgiving! I don't frequent many forums and I'm cutting my Facebook presence way down. This is the best forum I visit.

Comics no. Sportscards, to borrow a term from an earlier post, I could "cannibalize" my cards and go after virtually any comic. But....I'm old. Or older. 52 in Feb. And I'm nostalgic, and my heart is in collecting. Everything I've brought in over the last decade means something to me, more than $ or flipping.

I have my CGC books on a shelf in a hallway that receives no direct sunlight. I do not expect to see any fading over time (and have not yet) but if I do I will let you all know!
If you have a display area and there is direct light that falls on that area, I would advise moving your display area. Otherwise, I am of the belief that worrying about UV damage should be low to negligible.
I second that for the most part. The room I use gets no sunlight. Artificial lighting is low. No problems w/ comic, sportscard, magazine or newspaper displays over the last 9 years.No fading. I rotate things in/out of display. Anywhere from every 2 weeks to 6 months That's me trying to make sure I get display run with as many items as possible.

Comic/Sport Card parting of the ways. At no point did I sell everything, but did get close.
1990: Student loan payoff + car down pymt. Mostly comics. FF, Spidey run, 50's Atlas Westerns. Others.
2001: House down pymt. All cards. In the end, worth it.
2010: Money for attorney to keep my dumb arse outta jail . Cards again. Had rebuilt the card collection well 08-09, but, again. My dumb arse.
All in all, glad I had stuff to fall back on.

My comic collecting, first go 'round, spanned 1975 - 1987.
Just for fun I'll add my sportscard collecting, first go 'round was 1983 - 2000.
How much bandwith am I allotted for my list(s)?

51. Most of my Golden's are Tarzan. Starting to branch out a bit. Lone Ranger, pre codes. I like collecting GA. I treat it like I do 40's & 50's football card collecting. Nothing perfect or uber-mint, but well loved and with character is fine

A great scanner makes a wealth of difference. I'm primarily a card collector. I've got an Epson v600 for those. I so wish I could fit a CGC slab on that thing. Does a great job w/ raw comics but man. So close with slabs
