Popular Post Tnexus Posted August 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 23, 2021 So full disclosure, this video below is primarily about Heritage Auctions and WATA Games and some very sketch market manipulation they appear to be involved in. However, there is one section that talks about how allegedly the owner of HA, Jim Halperin shill bids his own comic auctions on the website to boost the price. The video, done by Karl Jobst who is a well respected video game Youtuber is fantastic in its own right. It's a long watch, but absolutely worth watching as I think a lot of it relates to the comic market as well. With CGC entering the video game market, I'm curious to see what's going to happen. bronze johnny, Claire_Thing, Upgrayedd2 and 5 others 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catman76 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 So? People are still willing to bid even higher and buy the stuff. So he's making rich people pay even more, who cares. Maskedvigilante , jimjum12 and aardvark88 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanCooper Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 I imagine the David Wilson who shows up at the 25:00 minute mark of the video is Mark Wilson's (former PGC Mint, dealer and Heritage employee) son? Interesting.... MatterEaterLad and Icculus308win 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
