Anyone want to tell this uhh individual who obviously has no idea what's going on, what I do for a living? Individual documents in a bankruptcy action can be sealed, sure. I didn't say that. I said that the fact that a company is filing for bankruptcy protection (or moving into liquidation) CANNOT. Your googled link does not disprove it, and hilariously even weakens your argument because that specific case sent back and UNSEALED the hearing because the court felt the public should have had the opportunity to challenge the sealing of the estimation hearing, and asked the court to consider any reasonable alternative to NOT seal it...

Oh okay so then people should just believe what "you" say rather than an unbiased business article that is completely on point. And I know you're probably heavily invested in trashy Voldy slabs as well but really is it any surprise to anyone that the company went bankrupt and got liquidated in an asset sale ? I mean seriously, outrageous turn times, virtually no presence at cons, slabs that routinely sell for a significant discount to comparably graded CGC slabs, and a market share that struggled to get just beyond infinitesimal would certainly lead one to believe that bankruptcy was the inevitability. Which is why I never went bargain hunting to buy any of them. -J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If bankrupt, wouldn't there be an asset auction, open to the public? For some reason, I can't find any evidence of them seeking or being granted protection from the bankruptcy courts. Has jb ever produced any evidence for his bizarre attacks on the company?

The other guy gives you 14,725 available and 6,207 sold or a 42.1% sold to available ratio. The sheer numbers can be much higher based on the length of time one company has been around compared to the other but the sold/available ratio should be fairly equal if both companies are equally desirable in the market. They are not even close. Not to derail the thread, but most of the CBCS subscribers tend to submit books to keep, or at least they did when I was involved with CBCS.
