lordbyroncomics Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I'm Kav's nephew. He used to beat the Hell out of me when I was younger "to toughen you up" as he'd put it. Then he'd make me wash his car. One day, he put his hand on my shoulder and, in a solemn voice, said "Lad... it's time you entered into a fraternity of like-minded fellows." and gave me his subscription to Wizard, which was three issues away from being cancelled. All of that is made up except for the parts about how Kav is my Uncle and he used to beat the s*#t out of me. That is totally true, even if he says otherwise in a "LOL" manner. Glad to be here! grendelbo, bronze_rules, FoggyNelson and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Desai Collection Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 CGC helped me with my first 6 digit deal. It was surreal. Luck. Timing. Most importantly, CGC's organized approach and simplicity made it all work. To me, they do unique stuff. You know the type of stuff you only read in comic books or in movies. !!!!!!! I did not use their services until few years ago for a small batch of collectibles I wanted to trade. I am back and hoping to learn what is Gold nowadays!

Terry JSA Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 My origin story is basic. I came onto the boards to sell a book and it successfully sold. I decided to stay on the boards since I’m able to move the books I want most of the time and just talk about comics. The people here are pretty cool too. djzombi, Larryw7 and ADAMANTIUM 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still looking for my car keys. I'm still looking for my keys. Non "I think I'm funny" answer, is I came here after a few years on the comicpriceguide.com boards which were/are a bit of a joke. Started learning a ton, realized there are some great deals to be had here so I've hung around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoChance Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 I started trying to join many, many years ago. But the forum software thought my totally awesome email address was fake and would never deliver the confirmation link Finally, I decided to try another email address and was able to sign up. After 5+ years of trying to search the forums and having to wait 60 seconds to fix my search typo and try again, I decided maybe I need to post a few things to see if searching gets any better.
