Soon there will be an upgrade charge for an avatar

And emojis.

Is this considered a variant or a relaunch?

How do you monetize the CGC boards?  There seems to be a LOT of money changing hands in those FS threads. 

A subscription model for access to the marketplace is the most likely outcome if they do decide to monetize the forums.

They said they did that months ago. However I don’t really have the patience to comb through my statements to verify this. All 9.8s tho!! I’d like to say that some were gift grades for my inconvenience but they are all gem. But I’m happy they weren’t damaged while lost in the void 

You should be able to keyword search any statements in their app or website to verify credits.

Will they look at the receiving department and temporarily halt submissions?

Obligatory 

Big keys are still rising but I've definitely started seeing more sales ads on IG below last ebay sold prices on books under $1,000.

Yes I agree with that point. All buy a trade sometime down the road on the secondary market if I can find it, 
but I am not going to support this type of elitist marketing with my money. 

 

How is their marketing worse than the variant cover/exclusives marketing?

Iots of talk around Miles Morales 28 and the cap shield variant, tfaw.com has it on sale for $2.79 each today,  6/28 foc, 7/21 release. 

I got the SIKTC 16 covers in, they look so good in person! Still decently priced out there, around 60 a set.

You better send them a stern letter of protest. They may actually be able to quantify what 'eleventy-seven' variant covers would actually look like in a future release.

I could see it being a B story in one of their comics, "Eleventy-Seven Covers and Mayhem!"

They attempted to launder $9MIL and then the comics were stolen AGAIN from the DA's office during the investigation!

Wow that is quite the story! So in 2012 that guy got 40 years on a plea deal, but the minimum to serve on it was 8 years. He would have got less time if he gave back millions missing, but refused. 

So he could have got out in 2020 with millions to dump on comics? 🤔🤔🤔

I also wonder how many others read this article and made improvements to their scams based on it...

Several years ago I found some physics related forums where Neal got into quite a spirited debate about his hollow earth theory and planetary physics.   I believe he taught himself serious physics over a long period

I had no idea Neal Adams was a hollow earther. Does he still hold this belief?

And not correctly ratified, depending who you ask.

As long as the tax law changes for 2022 remain, cons will be huge for dealers wanting to earn unreported income.

Definitely NOT a robot.

Another guest announced 

I dont understand the origin of the plastic shards... what are they removing those from during the process? How isn't this issue identified and rectified yet? They can't have that many random plastic shards floating around the encapsulating area... can they??

I wouldn't be surprised if the government finds a way to 1099 an even trade 

I'm sure they are trying lol. What happens if you get a $3,000 book for a $2,500 book and $500 cash? 

And another guest, Bill Messner-Loebs will be there all day along with a full size Mystery Machine plus a full size Cantina with Greedo will be there as well! This is shaping up to be a good time, I can't wait!
