That's funny because there a ton of members here from Winnipeg (and elsewhere in Manitoba), but I've very rarely heard the boards mentioned here at shops or shows.
That is Funny cause its all snow and woods up there. Do you have phones there? I guess your nature and experiences and who and what you talk about is different than mine.

l like lazy-boy a tad better, so i don't know if I believe it. But I can make my own decisions...
2005- The remnants of the demise of the comic industry, with the pure knowledge of the industry......THEN
do people know when you go to shops or shows that many collectors talk about the CGC boards, they talk about members names , they also talk about never posting or not joining because of harsh members or know it all mentality. I have heard a couple of those names... just saying they where not from 2013, they also mention getting good and bad info and the deals on books.

You don't have to look too far to figure out whose sock puppet account that is.

There is absolutely nothing "real" about anything you've said or this sock puppet account you are posting under right now.

Estimates are based on relevant information. I have no interest in reading or having other people read the wild guesses that people feel the need to post.
Do you ever interact with collectors in the real world, like at comic shops or shows? Do you have any idea how sick I am of hearing bull that some ignoramus got from some worthless online source while I am out trying to enjoy my hobby? Just a few weeks ago at the last local show, I was looking through some boxes when somebody beside me started spouting garbage that he got from Nobel's site. The spread of misinformation does not benefit collectors.
Well to some extent I see your point. But Being a store owner and partner owner for 15 years and knowing many insiders , attending many shows and asking tons of questions, I can tell you theories on print runs partially come from pretty good base sources. Follow the money! These arguments are missing the point. Some people are trying to control what people say and how they estimate , that is not cool, I have not seen anyone in these arguments claiming facts, admitted speculation, yes.

That's not my recommendation at all, nor is it eschewing information. In fact, my recommendation is exactly not that. I want MORE information, and I want to be able to have a much more informed decision.
What I - and others - object to is people using at best incomplete data to extrapolate concrete conclusions. You cannot say with certainty that a 1:1000 comic is 1000 times rarer than a regular one- - because you do not have all the data. In fact, I would argue that a 1:1000 ratio comic has a much smaller number than that ratio, based on ordering patterns.-------I WOULD 100 PERCENT AGREE... I think MANY HAVE SAID THIS !
Many posters here take this data as gospel. All I - and others - are saying is don't do that.
You're actually saying what many have said and its common sense. By you saying That the print would be much smaller you are estimating using your knowledge and that is fine !

You're still making arguments against things that no one has said.

THIS ! NO ONE IS SAYING ANY OF IT as a concrete conclusion ! These guys are the invisible police. Justice for the did not happen. Its like they are making up their own problem! -

Hi Paul747. These personal comments are inappropriate and have no place here. I am not allowed to respond as I would like, so that will have to suffice.
I am not allowed either,I don't see personal attacts but will ad patronizing to my random list.

You take one sentence of my post and turn into something it isn't. I am a rational person you want to turn this into something its not. If
someone presents a fairly rational discussion point without any of the hyperbole that is in above paragraph I am fine with it. We can give
them a different viewpoint and usually they will take it.
As long as we tell them our view of why we feel this isn't correct its an impass until the poster stays here awhile and begins to understand
why we feel this way. I don't see the need to beat them over the head with every time someone new comes in.My point to the poster was for them to understand our viewpoint of why we have to be careful when trying to guess at the ratio numbers for thingslike newsstands and such. The educated guess part doesn't bother me its an honest attempt by many here. I can understand how they arrive at it. I am not going to beat a poster to death till until they start using stuff like 1/100 newsstand and such. Id like to at least extend that courtesy to them and allow them to learn. You beat them to death first and then ask questions.
I am not going to let you drag me into going from Point A to Point B here. Most don't have a problem with this. They have a problem when
they use the information to make references such as 1/100 they cant prove. There in lies the difference for me. I am quite sure you don't agree with that and that again is fine with me. I am not looking to change you mind. I am just a little more lenient with new posters. Eventually they get the point except for a rare few.This. (something it isn't)

It is possible to think that publishers do not try to loose money , keeping that in mind you can estimate.
