I think there's a more accurate market observation to be made about what's going on. For example, it's not that price on original art is exploding, but rather we are seeing high dollar pieces come to market that are normally locked up in collections. People are moving collectibles to generate cash f...

Pardon my ignorance but how does that work? Do I need a printer? There are set rules and a maximum envelope size, and to qualify I think cards need to be under a certain dollar threshold. When you do your shipping through eBay's shipping system, choose the "eBay Standard Card Mailer" option (it say...

So what is the best, cheapest, most efficient way to ship these if I sell on eBay? Is it OK to just pop them in a top loader and send in a regular envelope or does it have to be in something sturdier or a bubble mailer? Last time I used the bubble mailer but those were over $4 to ship. Same thing f...

Sell, sell, sell. Once submissions catch up to demand and those 10s become more and more frequent, assuming PSA will ever catch up, these are going to bottom out quickly. They were available in every comic store, gas station, and department store I frequented as a child. Hell, even a locally owned ...

Well, a. Sarcasm does not translate well on internet forums. I just re-read the post and nothing in it indicates sarcasm, possibly because.. b. As a comic book shop owner, I may be a little more sensitive to statements about the industry i am relying on for my livelihood and been part of for close ...

With the product that is being pumped out by so many publishers nowadays, I expect LCS's to all go out of business and comics to instead be sold in small coffee shops to yuppies who wear berets and scarves in any weather while they consume lattes by small, gentle sips. I don't know where you buy co...

We should uprise You do that in a civilized, capitalistic society first by not financially supporting the things that exploit you, are low quality or prey upon people. It's like Star Wars - the sheer number of people that hated the Last Jedi and what it represented, but then while espousing how awf...

LMAO I can't WAIT to see how the virtue signalers try to defend this one and swear up and down how excited for it they are....

OMG, LMFAO look at X-O's helmet - wtf is that? They designed an armor where the helmet is literally orbiting his head.....

My collection of records is nearing 2000. I will be selling some off once Covid takes a hike. Gonna get a table at our local record show probably in June and sell CDs, rare vinyl, laserdiscs and cassettes. The issue is weight with having a lot of these. When I moved, our movers said that the record...

Eniac #1 made it onto the CBSI top ten list, which I thought was cool!

That's pretty cool.
Post it on his Facebook and ask him.... Or I can do it if you want.

I think we are close to the peak bubble that sports card and comics experienced in the early 90's and we all know how that turned out. I collected West Coast Avengers as they came out, read them and still have my full fun run and I had to google to see what made issue 45 so special. I think major k...

This book has sold, but as a point of conversation there are two sides to the debate about this book that I'm seeing on social media and both are absolutely ridiculous. The first is the over speculation and pouring in because of a possible on-screen appearance. The second is slamming the people who ...

usually when people are rude and trolly, they are jealous of something... you might think that your opinion is the most important (most wife beaters do), but it's just one opinion

Ummm? Wurt?!? -durp-

The short of it is that they are scrub, agenda-laden comic book urinalism. It's like a bunch of lib-tards who have no writing outlet elsewhere for their folly, so they decided to write about comic books and lace their basement-dweller opinions into the fray as much as possible as if they are intelle...

Nice work, man. This is how you do it. Nice work. I would scan your pages into a PDF file and send them to Greg and maybe they can be archived onto the site forever. :) I'm on a really great Stone Temple Pilots community and this is how we do it as well. Share what we can that otherwise wouldn't hav...

There is a lot more than that..dude its 4 hours of hardcore jim shooter with tons of revelations, did you read the bleeding cool story? Sorry it didnt please you, other people don't feel the same as you The podcasts speaks for itself, if you didnt 'get it' I'm sorry Sigh. Maybe I'll check out the p...

I need a meme where instead of Snowjob saying "Doooonnnn't give him the stick!!! OOOOOOooohhhhhh!", he is saying "DOOooooonnnn't click on Bleeding Cool links!!! OOOOooooooohhhhh!"

Such a *SQUEE* show of fools publishing on that website.

Dude your whole hype train and multi-thread kindergarten excitement rallying was basically to market some guy's podcast. I'm not listening to some guys FIVE HOUR podcast to suss this crap out. And not only that, but from your oddly vague summary your entire "big reveal drop" was what? That Jim Shoot...

Marvel Metal is blowing up now I guess. I'm going to look into it tomorrow, but if what I read is verifiable I'm going to sell my base set with the original binder for 500.

I always planned on completing what I needed for the silver flasher set as well, but I never got around to it.

Good luck with the sale. I assume it is hot right now because of Wandavision.

Exactly. Buy what you love, but sell during the speculation.

Wow :o The first appearance of Mephisto goes for that in 8.0. It wasn't that many years ago when I was selling off my Marvel slabs I sold my 9.2 for $253 :!: :censored: facepalm (I just looked it up to see how badly I did). Books increase in price over the years. That's why the tried and true "buy ...
