Why does a dealers inventory count in the Registery?

[action1kid]

Ive noticed that most of the top 20 collectors in the registry are dealers.

Why are books in there inventory[that they dont own] counted towards the dealers registry points.That dosnt sound fair to me as it throughs off what[ TRUE COLLECTORS] really have.You call it Competitive Sets. Sounds competitivly unfair to me.

I can see the registry catagory is not goin to win an academy award for most hits in 2007.

I'd have to agree with you. On the bright side, many collectors don't bother or I'd be ranked 251. It probably all equals out.

who's listing a bunch of books they don't own?

I agree with Pirate, the books that are registered to the dealers are supposed to be ones they currently own or have for sale. A book cannot be registered by more than one user, so if the book is sold to a registry user who then registers it, it is transferred from that dealer's registry set to the new owner. So, the dealers either have bigger collections or the buyers of their comics are not on the registry.

 

I hope that helps you!

If it was just up to me I would award action1 a gazillion points for his Action 1 copy. Nobody beats that book

I think that's the point action1kid is trying to make. Mixing in dealer inventory with collectors does take away some of the competitive nature of the registry.

I understand his point but I like that everyone is mixed in together.

And if it is their book, then there is nothing to grumble about. The books belong to them until that time that someone buys it from them.

Seems simple enough to me.

But there are instances where it is NOT there book and it is being counted on their registry points.
