PGX just stepped on an Atom Bomb. A classic tale of deceit, trimming,and woe.

[Johnny G]

I think his explanations are more satisfying than any that Borock has given and he also has responded to more individual questions, unlike CGC. I still don't know what the truth is but I think that the amount of venom being spit at PGX may not be warranted. Having said that I'll have to admit that I have very little use for either company. Daniel should start going to conventions ( if he isn't already) so he can answer some of these questions face to face with his accusers.

 

He'll be in Seattle this weekend with the "team"

 

 

Won't Steve Be in Seattle too?? That might be worth the price of admission - I got $10 on the Hippie Dead Head.

 

I'll be there so I can take the action

 

2/1 on SB???

 

 

It should be interesting to say the least. I will keep an eye open for any "goings on" at the booth. I'll snap lots of pictures too!

Hey, let's compare hits for the month for your Green River site and mine!

 

 

 

I had to come back and address this......because I have to ask you......Do you think I ever had a large hit count as a goal when I set up a website devoted to a relatively obscure comic book collection? It's definitely a "boutique" website. As long as the wind doesn't whistle through there too loudly I'm happy.

[14 of spades]

 

That one looks sliced even without before/after scans.

 

 

After the seeing this book I only have one thing to say.

 

Danny, you either suck at detecting trimming, or doing the actual trimming.. eitherway.

 

You suck at it.

 

Ze-

 

 

 

how on earth is this kind of "grading" any better than the rampant over-grading that exists on ebay???

 

i mean - the book obviously wasn't a 9.4 BEFORE the trim - i guess they were trying whatever they possibly could do to FORCE IT to a 9.4. so they realized the book had to get a trim to get a 9.4, so they trimmed it. and therefore it's now a 9.4....

 

anyone with me on the apparent circular logic??

Dunno but I'd hate to be the fella who paid top dollar for that comic.

Although some sellers might say it differently.

[Red Hook]

You know....I keep looking at that right edge and thinking..."No WAY could that be trimmed, I mean it looks perfectly straight and even and........."

Sure I can, because he has no answers to respond with.

Would have thought he would at least TRY to feed us some horse [embarrassing lack of self control].

Is he permitted to be here?

I seriously don't know. I personally think anyone and everyone should be allowed here, but I could understand if Pepsi had a message board they might not want the owner of Coke to be dropping by.

PGX is no Coke.

They are more like an RC or a Nehi.

Nowhere near the league of Coke.

He's not allowed here, but many questions have been posed at the STL Boards where he is registered. He has not responded.

[Red Hook]

More like Kool-Aid. The Jonestown kind.

Understood, but analogies are useful and you knew what I was referring to.

My response was for those that were wondering why he isn't here telling us details.

 

Now, would he if he could? Most of us doubt it.

He can post on the Stl boards, but has not made an appearance there either.

So they answer is...No.

It would be intersting to see what sort of title" he would have if he was allowed to be here.

He regularly posts at the STL forum and usually gives half [embarrassing lack of self control] responses. Since the scandal he has stayed clear.

Other than that, by all means FLAME ON.
