6 months from joining until you can sell on here.

 

Makes total sense. This ain't facebook.

Or how about fewer rules - unless they are absolutely necessary to protect us from own cupidity or dumbness - then people like you and I - who prefer to decide for themselves not to buy from noobs here - can just decide for ourselves.  So, e.g., maybe Joe Doe already knows Noobie X who just joined and doesn't think waiting six months offers him/her/it any extra protection.

If you guys think it would be better, I can erase the one that takes you to the forum you are already at.

Makes sense from a pure logic (redundant links) pov.

But I suggest you leave them in from a convenience/familiar template pov - we'll get used to clicking on the left-most link, and a static location of that G/S/B link is much simpler to habit-driven normie like me.

I guess if you can’t grade, just add ‘solid’ before each over-graded book.

Gets you one sale at least, until you eventually reach everyone. Now everyone knows you can’t grade for sh*t

Or the classic “mid-grade”.  Wow.  Thanks for the vague range, ding dong.

Why does it matter if the grade is right as long as the money's right ? GOD BLESS....

There are some sales threads that when I see them, I immediately hear this in my head.

Should a non comic book girlie magazine from the fifties be listed in the G/S/A sales forum, or in the Misc. section?

I think either is fine, as long as the print date fits in the category.  At some point, rule #1 should be rewritten, seems it states comic related only.  We do allow concert posters, magazines, and other items CGC grades.

1. A sale thread must contain books that are CGC-certified or raw only, or items directly related to comics.

this would be helpful. Maybe something about collections as well? "reprints may be placed in either age when the material was originally published OR age when reprint was published" or some clarification, it is an oft asked question

Can you be more specific?

How do others feel about this?

I frequently see people ask (and wonder myself) where should a collection of GA be placed? In GA or modern if it is a recent reprint? Either seems to be the answer boardies often give and it seems to be logical as well. EC reprints in modern won't be seen by EC heads? (or is that EC dismebodied heads?)

If I am wrong stick a needle in my eye!

Hopefully, others will chime in, and I will go with whatever the majority decides.
