  1. From my notes, CC sold an 8.0 copy on 12/19 for $192k and another one for $120k on 2/19. I think this Heritage copy did fine.
  2. I use USPS Registered Mail for higher value items to ship and price is very reasonable. They insure up to $50k and is the most secured way to ship.
  3. I was thinking about this same thing too about California, but was surprised it was the exact opposite and majority if not all actually listened and stayed home
  4. I really don't see it happening. Like most have said, way too early to open up for fear of a 2nd wave of infections that can happen and no vaccine. If for some miraculously reason it is not cancelled, I can see some people going and some vendors setting up. Perhaps the organizers will set up a mandatory temperature check per person and a mask requirement to enter that should be worn at all times. It's a far cry from happening, but it's the governor's decision.
  5. I believe they still do. When you fill out the online submission form, there is a section to select for the crossover grading with the discount.
  6. Yeah, saw that last week. I'm now kicking myself for not buying at the Hasbro website thinking that $50 was high
  7. At this rate, it might be better to revert back to its original CC format. Navigation was easy and everything worked fine. I'm no web designer/developer but wondering if that is even remotely possible.
  8. Yea CC needs to fix a few of the bugs with their new website. I noticed in their main page at the comics for sale section that the Bat 1 and Hulk 1 both have met the buy it now price with the best offer option, but for some reason they are not "sold."
  9. Learned my lesson 8 yrs ago about not asking for a back cover scan. I bought a 1.0 MF 52 old label in CL. Front cover looked fine with no eyesore defects, but when I received the book and looked at the back, it had about a 4x4 piece missing at the bottom edge. Never again will I buy a book without seeing a back cover first, especially something that is worth $$$. I got too excited at that time and because the price was very fair, I jumped on it quick.
  10. Yep definitely a bull trap. Stocks down today. Haven't bought yet either.
  11. The JIM 83 CGC 5.5 that sold on CL last night for around $7700 seemed soft
  12. Card market still strong when Panini sold their NT Football FOTL boxes for over a grand today
  13. Yeah I agree the supplies are lacking and the lack of COVID-19 testing kits, and yet no signs of a vaccine of some sort (who knows how long that will take), but how about the medical staff operating at practically 24/7. There's only so much doctors and nurses working in a given shift, patients outnumbering them by a large margin with this new viral strain. Also a possibility of those same medical workers getting infected and now your staff has cut down. Number of available beds too in each facility, also taking into consideration other inpatients with medical illnesses. It's just a mess out there. The people in China did an incredible job actually listening to the news, government, etc. to stain quarantined for so and so days. They listened and now the number of cases are down. Europeans have it bad due to their poor healthcare and government system, giving full-time treatments to the younger ones infected and letting the elderly just succumb to their illnesses. Here in the USA, it was split 50/50 it seemed early one when the virus first arrived here between people who wanted to stay out of the public life for now and do self-containment and the rest didn't really care like it was a joke and it wasn't a big deal. Now that numbers are growing with those infected and dying numbers shifted towards more on the self-quarantine group, while the rest still live their life as if nothing is happening. Well, it might be too late now because I predict there will be an exponential growth in the number of infected and deaths in the next few weeks. I hope I am wrong.. Yeah a lot of people still in heavy panic mode buying and stocking in large quantities supplies, food, etc. and not leaving anything for anyone else. Because people are doing it in mass numbers, everyone else is following suit because no one wants to be stuck without anything. This also plays a huge role and adds to the problem.
  14. Same here! I have the complete original sets both A and B variations + the errors from Series 1-15 in NM condition
  15. The /100 one probably 6 figs if graded in the 9 range (pre-coronavirus). Dunno about now, haven't been following lately.
