not sure why your stating the obvious, other than to say you mean only those that flip new books are the locusts. By Jove, I think he's got it! "You're" (PS. There's a nifty quote function here, makes things easier to understand.) Also, you don't have to double wrap your pics. Ain't I a stinker....? yea you are

Not correct. Not all moderns are new books, though all new books are moderns. not sure why your stating the obvious, other than to say you mean only those that flip new books are the locusts. Anyway beware the locusts [/img]

When you live through a crash that brought Marvel within a single judge's decision of ceasing publication altogether...you tend to be a little down on the "let's just treat comics like the Franklin Mint/Stock Market!" mentality. Speculation on new comic books hurts the hobby, hurts collectors, and most importantly, hurts the very creators who make the comics. "What? How does speculating on new books hurt anybody but the speculators?" I don't have the time, or desire, to document for the 53rd time the myriad ways that this is true. It is written all over this board, in many places, already, just waiting to be found. When people are buying new comic books just to "see how much money they can make", and have zero connection to the artform itself, they will, like locusts, do massive damage and, when there's no more money to be made, will move on to the next "hot thing", caring not a damn for the artform or the carnage they've inflicted. This place has become clogged with such people in the last five years, and to those of you that this applies, I only say this: read a damn book, will you? Not sure why you would come to a thread titled "Moderns that are heating up on EBAY" and slam others, for their actions, then again don't know why you'd be reading it at all. Finally why are you on the CGC boards at all , nasty thing... that slabbing a book thing You speak without knowledge. Such practice invariably leads to conflict. To address your specific claim: no one was "slammed." Did you read what I wrote...? If you did, did you understand what I wrote....? Maybe I didn't understand then. I was understanding that you were comparing anyone that buys a new book to flip to a locust. And that the last five years there were more locusts appearing in a thread titled "moderns that are heating up on Ebay"

shhh yup fillin da boxes

yea shouldn't have said that, oh well

this is the moderns heating up thread. combopacks are heating up. a discussion about them is warranted and on topic. if you want to discuss other books that are heating up, you can make a post in this thread and change the topic. Its possible to have more than one discussion going on in here at a time. The only thing heating up about combopacks is the 3 or 4 people here hyping them that refuse to take it to there own thread because they know they would be ignored

Might be a good time to start listing some of my duplicates then? No you should sell them to me first You guys should start your own strand for combo packs Pleeeeease there is a separate thread for that, BUT if they are modern books and they are heating up, it seems reasonable to discuss here. My point is this, It is my understanding that this is a place to bring books that are heating up. So yes bring it here when its heating up, but not once a weeek posting sales again and again, what if the enormous or other popular books did this. You have a thread why not post it there we people that are interested will see it. You come across as hyping this by doing this over and over. Just my opinion ....

No hate here just tired of seeing endless posting on them in this strand especially since you guys have been asked to take it to the appropriate place a few times now

Isn't that basically what Bleeding Cool is? Does it have a price guide?? Yes, we will have to check it out to see if its anywhere near valid http://allcomicsevaluated.com/price-guide/

its brand new, first one

So it's a postview

I think it's an image preview for the treasury Image book. Hence it should be first appearance if you count previews. In any case it seems to be being ignored by the peeps that matter, the buyers

As I posted earlier after talking to Adrian. he was very excited about what was going on with this project. Its still a process, best to wait for news, not get to carried away, as much as we all would like to.

Grats and that is one cool cover
