Why is overstreet unrealistic?

[infinite_comics-migration]

Now that Overstreet has been sent packing...er... relocated to Mississippi,

does this mean that Arnold will be taking over the helm of

gathering the information for the price guide?

 

IIRC, Arnold doesn't work for Overstreet at all anymore (the 3rd edition OGG was his last for them, again, IIRC)

IIRC...????

 

Then who is in charge of the asylum ?

 

It would certainly help if it was someone with comicbook collecting experience.

IIRC...????

 

If I Remember Correctly.

So...I wonder who the new Gemstone Price Guide Guru will be... .

...or will Bob be working all alone in his basement again ?

I wouldn't have any problem having Overstreet listing lots of 80s to present as "nominal" instead of $3.00. I do have an interesting dollar bin scenario though. A friend of mine bought a copy of Rootie Kajootie in a quarter bin at A-1 Comics recently, listed it in his ebay store, and sold it pretty quickly near-guide at $9.99. So is this a quarter comic? Or a $9.99 comic?

exactly my thoughts. there's plenty of stuff sitting in 25 cent - $1 boxes that can and does fetch $3 - $50 on ebay. there's also plenty of stuff sitting in those boxes that doesn't fetch 25 cents in bulk on ebay.
