  1. Picked up an old store stock collection recently. I know I have more than this in another box, hopefully a couple Canadian newsies in there.
  2. Take the Atom and 2 Batman per PM
  3. I would say the percentage of collectors who actually don’t care about the comics themselves but rather just the value is high. Higher than “real” collectors who actually grew up with the passion and have read the stories. The amount of key only collectors, slab collectors and folks chasing the latest hot book is proof of that.
  4. Which is a problem they could have fixed on the weekend but chose not to.
  5. Prices have gone up. No problem entering books now - Bull Shark Sent an email yesterday asking for an extension, doubt anything will come of that.
  6. It’s only the 9.8 chasers that are getting squeezed out, these books are still cheap and plentiful raw. Not including GS Xmen 1
  7. Monster's eyes fit perfectly in your reflection. Well played
  8. Old thread Sunday. Just going through my original FF’s most bought off spinner rack here in Manitoba. My FF 252 does not have the tats
  9. I would say it’s lost income, I don’t think a lot of collectors are squirrelling their money away to spend in August or whenever. Comics can still be bought currently at quite a few different venues. If the OP’s source is closed the buyer will buy somewhere else - tons of sales currently on Facebook, IG, eBay etc I think there will be a loss of profit with the influx of collectors selling their possessions out of necessity.
  10. It’s the first appearance of extremely minor level villains, not a Doom or Green Goblin. It was hyped for the Thor movie and I can’t see it retaining value 10 years or more from now.
  11. Except in today’s reality, millions of people have lost their jobs and their health insurance (in the US anyway, where tying healthcare to your job is somehow acceptable) and desperate times call for purging of useless items like collectibles.
