Why is there no "Silver Age Comics That Are Heating Up on Ebay" thread?

 

 

Because speculating on comics has everything to do with loving money and not loving funny books. :mad:

 

I disagree. It's precisely the love of funny books that make us go :insane: and spend stupid amounts of cash, spend countless hours of our lives talking about it here and treking across the country to hit cons.

 

The "loving money" part is mearly a way of keeping score. We love to "win". It's no different in any other hobby (sports cards, coins, fine art, wine, etc...).

We all have our egos and we want to have the best or the biggest or the brightest...and then we want other people to know we have it....Being able to brag out how much something is worth or what we sold something for is really about being #1.

 

Read the books "Mint Condition", "The Billionare's Vingear" and "The Card" . The authors talk about the same mentality of greed, ego and fraud that we complain about here.

 

With respect, I not sure your argument invalidates my statement. :shy:
