Thanks. I bought both of those this year, from board members.

 

This is a great place to hook up for sweet books at decent prices. I have only purchased one book so far from forum members that I regret paying what I did for it. But I don't regret too much :) It cost me 800 and should have been about 700 or just under. But hey. I made the decision and wasn't forced into it. Maybe it will work out.

 

I have a bunch more to post. As I have thousands, I can not do them all. But I will do some more. Down the road I will do some Golden Age, which is my passion. I have shown some of them, but not all.

We should all start one of these...oh wait

 

Are you sending me a subliminal message?

 

I own so many of those books I'm thinking you are sending me one.

 

Here's an idea based on if everyone did post a scan of every book they owned:

We could have a database of every book owned here that might rival those other databases of books that many of us upload to.

 

I have 5000 scans to ready to contribute :)

Answered and then deleted. I just ain't gonna go there, on their site. It has been hashed and rehashed already. I will say that none were restored. Some graded higher and some lower. I prefer CGC due to Heritage not accepting PGX slabbed books, consumer confidence in CGC, with more consistency. I prefer the slabs, prices and turn around times of PGX. Neither company is consistent enough for me though. I would like to see something in writing that states "three spine stress marks: deduct .08. Two blunted corners: deduct .08. etc. I do not have the expertize to write such a thing, but some do. Due to the innumerable combinations that could exist in one book, I admit that it would be very difficult. But not impossible.

 

Both have pros and cons. Let's leave it at that.
