When did pressing a comic before every sub become the norm?

[Green]

I basically think of pressing books as an organized criminal enterprise. I believe the people who participate could be charged under RICO. The people who press books and sell them without disclosing the pressing are probably guilty of larceny by false pretenses. The people who press books for pay know full well that many of the books they press will be sold without disclosure of the pressing, so I believe they could be charged as well.

Do you plan to disclose the pressing when you sell? If not, you are basically victimizing the buyer with a con game.

 

I guess the question becomes, what kind of person do you want to be? Do you want to be the type of person who treats others fairly, or do you want to be the type of person who victimizes others for his own interests? The guy in Cleveland who kept three women locked in his basement for ten years falls into the latter category. Is that the kind of company you want to be in?

Boring?

 

God forbid that we should actually discuss comics and the comic market when we could be posting as-funny-as-kidney-stones memes, spouting 'pernts' at every turn like plankton with tourettes, contributing to birthday threads for boarders who haven't posted since 1814, and attempting to get each and every thread locked so that people can up their score in the Vegetable Challenge.

I used to have a problem with pressed books but why fight a losing battle ?

 

So long as the press benefits the book and not turn it into a frankenbook, why not ?

I have a copy of the JSC Midtown variant for 700 and Superior 1. I'd like to get those both pressed, signed, and graded. They are going for big money right now and I could see flipping them for a solid ASM key.

 

Does that make me a bad person?

I can't take that seriously. I must assume this is intentionally inflammatory.

 

Yea I'm just going to ignore it.

 

My question is, whose shill account is that? People must be getting board talking about the Moderation on the boards.

 

And I assume when I buy any 9.8 book it has been pressed. I'd also love to know who is buying a 9.8, cracking it, and resubmitting for a grade bump.

Funniest post I've read in a while!

I was wondering how long it would take before undisclosed pressing would be compared to Ariel Castro.

I would love to pick the brains of the person who did the Suscha news asm 125. That is, if it was intentional.

That was the 9.8 to 9.9, right?
