I'm used to that reaction however it was because my face was covered in blood! Thankfully it was only a flesh wound and as I have very little flesh it did not show.

E-Bay sellers are trying to sell here at their typical inflated prices hoping to avoid the fees. E-Bay sellers are also using the Boards to hype their books. Pump and dump is rampant. Hoard a particular issue, set up a few fake E-Bay sales, and hype it here. The sad part is, it's working. Uh oh! I joined bc I wanted to start getting some of my collection cgc'd (the slabs look soooooo nice) but was hoping for more information and a better way to purchase comics than ebay. Most of the better books I have bought have been from Bedrock Comics when I go to visit my in-laws. Looks like I have lots more reading to do. The speculation stuff is all fairly new to me since I just recently started back up and haven't done much of anything with comics since I was 13-14 years old I think (back in the early 90s) All the new variant stuff and books kind of confuse the hell out of me, but I sure like the Dell'Otto and Mattina covers! Crain is another I believe. I understand the general concept behind the 1:10/1:25/1:50 or whatever, but I am not sure how it really effects value other than artificially creating demand? Thanks for all the folks into this for love of the game and not $. $$$ is important, but I have a job and just want to enjoy the art/stories/nostalgia personally.

CRKDMike Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Although I have an interest in comics generally, I have never been a serious “enthusiast.” Recently my father got a few books graded by CGC, and he was curious about selling them. I have plenty of experience on other forums (bladeforums, candlepowerforums), so I volunteered to check out CGC boards, and maybe sell a few books for him.

WEBHEAD Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) Class of 2003 It was so long ago in the infancy of the Internet ( signed up on AOL in 98 ) Collecting since '62.... kept it up till College but still managed to pick up some books that turned out to be keys.... found out about CGC from a friend bought raw comics on Ebay then discovered that I need to sell to buy.... joined up in the infancy as a lurker. Back then the threads were full of lots of great information about the hobby. Threads then were exciting, we had Comic-Keys who lived under many alias the threads where hundreds of pages in a few days. I had a small CGC collection then finally decided that I had to get the big$$ books graded including my AF15 ASM1 FF 1 I love the hobby now have 186 graded..... Happy that the Board is still here (PS love the Christmas Raffle and the many grading contest.... I also me Steve Borock when he was still with CGC.... everytime in NY when I saw him he remembered..... still a great guy...... I love CGC and try to get 3 books out each month.
