Yeah it’s been really quiet on the boards lately, have all the speculators washed out after the fall in prices?

Yes but what is there really to talk about when you eliminate almost all speculation and the hot book of the week?  Very few people seem to be actually reading new books and we seem to have beating the whole "is pressing restoration argument" to death.  Golden Age section still seems to get a lot of comments but there is really not much else to bring up after over a decade.

There seems to be a hot book of the week this week - Star Wars High Republic Adventures Quest of the Jedi (there's a mouthful) #1 looks to be on a tear.

Well there you go - something to talk about!  Looks like about 20 copies have sold over the last couple days which is good for this market but we will see if it has any lasting power.  I know next to nothing about modern books (let alone Star Wars books) so I don't have much to add other than good to see some books selling.

No/One #1 selling for $14-20. Another book in the MassiveVerse, which includes Radiant Black.

Its just not as sharing as it used to be. Too much competition not as much comarderie as we used to have. 
Many old time collectors that started this thread are gone now. Eventually as the market corrects it will even
out again. I am meeting more and more boardies now at shows and getting others to join.  They are always
amazed at the resources on this board..

All do another in June after my show. I got to travel today to some shops, but only in one city so I like to have a broader viewpoint
before posting anything.

When's your show, in June? I have a con June 9th and wanted to ask. You yourself were saying sometimes or nowadays people seem close to the vest, and it didn't seem like the time to question. 😂

Either way I look forward to it! Usually what I'm buying doesn't correlate to others as much, but I still find it all interesting since it is connected to the hobby. :)

June 17th. I get a much better sense of the hobby because we are a Comic Book Show not a con. 
That and my area is cheap so if its selling here it will sell anywhere lol.

Here is the facebook link below.
