  1. I love ETH. It has done really well for me. I still see a lot of potential ahead.
  2. I follow some of these so called "influencers" to see what his "stupid" followers are buying, and I sell at max profit.
  3. Stupid or not. When I see opportunity to make money, I take it. I'm never too stubborn to make money.
  4. I was curious too. I watched the final 30 secs. My eyes popped when it went $6,800 then $6,900.
  5. My latest ASM pickup. So far I have ASM 39, 41, and 46. I'm aiming to get 40 next.
  6. Thanks guys. Now I am having second thoughts about getting married. Since I live with my GF, I have everything shipped to my office. And once I get home, I quietly slip the new addition(s) into my collection without her knowing when she's either cooking or taking a shower.
  7. I have a ASM 46 in a 9.4 with no top staple. My universal blue label does not indicate a missing top staple.
  8. That is how I feel with some of my copper age and modern books. If people are willing to pay a 200% premium then so be it. I will sell and convert that money into SA keys.
  9. Makes sense. Most of their kids would be 28 to 39 years old now and with disposable income.
  10. I've been following this YouTuber that goes by NE Ohio Sports Cards. He believes one of the reasons we've been seeing so much appreciation in the graded comic book market is largely due to sports card investors entering into the market. He made an interesting point by comparing how comic collectors and sports card collectors views differ when it comes to CGC graded census count. For example, a NM 98 in a 9.8 with its 3k+ census count may seem like a lot to us (comic collectors), but to the sports card collectors, 3k+ is nothing. Sports card investors comes from an environment where there are 5k or 10k+ for a particular rookie / PSA 10 card. When they look at the prices compared to the census counts, graded books all feels cheap to them. What do you guys think? Here's a recent video of his:
  11. 4 to 5 weeks? I thought the turnaround is a lot longer than that.
  12. People are paying 1k+ for PSA 10s. I'm somewhat tempted to send some of my cards to PSA (I have 2 complete sets of series 1 and 2) but with the current turnaround time, who knows what the market will be by the time you get it back from grading.
  13. It's only $5. Just give in and buy it.
  14. Since so many of you give me a thumbs up for my ASM 100. I thought I'd take some better pictures of the book out of the mylar bag. The color is really stunning in person.
