Yeah, gotta find some way to move my tax residency to Hong Kong since it looks like they don't even have any capital gains tax at all

Plus HK doesn't tax dividends or interest. 

Okay, future roomie to be............you've convinced me, although I don't know how your lovely family's going to feel about me moving in. :baiting:

I've already booked my flight and expect you to pick me up when I arrive at the Hong Kong Int'l Airport.  :bigsmile:

I can't wait and just imagine that................no taxes of any kind to worry about at all and living right in Stanley, the exclusive ritzy quiet seaside coastal town of Hong Kong where all of the wealthy ex-pats live.  :takeit:

That can't be true because we in the US have been told that would lead to the collapse of society.

Okay okay, you've seen through the facade that HK presents to the rest of the world.

Here's the real HK:

Yeah, I imagine all of your single highest graded CGC 9.8 books will freak out and curl right up in their slabs from fright once I move my boxes of CGC 1.8 slab worthy books right next to them.  lol

This is the first book I’ve seen that looks like it was actually read by one of the brothers

Promise books now on Ha. weekly auctions, look for some super deals here. This is currently at $1,950 and the #8 is a lot cheaper.  The best book for this week is the Web of Mystery #1 at a sharp 7.0...great book, look for a lot of promise books to be under the radar here, I count 5 including the GA Action for this week.

HA has started seeding the books in, playing catch up.  The 7/26 auction ending 8/1 just placed 61 Promise books - so far.  They may drop down to 30 or so each week down the road.  As has been mentioned, that's what they'd need every week on the "regular" auctions, 300 or so on the bi-monthly Sigs, to sell off 5000 books in 18 months.

Sitting at $7500 (7 x Guide) with 9 hrs left before live bidding. It looks undergraded, so that may be the explanation

I believe it's all to do with the seemingly continuing ongoing PROMISE from @Mmehdy that we all need to get these books right now because if we miss our opportunity here, these books will only be going up in price from here in.  lol
