Re: huh oh SGC president quits...
I don’t think a merger between BGS and CGC is necessary for a new #2. What they need is a deep pocketed owner to invest into the business so that they can compete with PSA.
I think BGS would be the best option for #2 grader since they have the history and better hobby name compared to CGC.
Assuming they can retain and get enough new graders, the new BGS should do the following:
- Change the BGS 9.5 Gem Mint to 10 and keep the black label.
- Remove the subgrades except for the Gem Mint and Black Label.
- Change the holder to be PSA height and width. It can still be thicker like a fat PSA holder but it needs conform to the gorilla in the marketplace.
- Offer a cost effective reslab offer to encourage the transition.
So far PSA has generally been good for my hobby experience but I do want competition so that the hobby continues to innovate.

Re: Morgans selling far below PCGS Price Guide
PSGS guide is notoriously overpriced and as far as I can remember has never been an accurate indication of the true market. Realizing 10-20% under their number, I'd say you did very good. RGDS!
Re: Comic Art 24-Karat Gold Proof Coin – Superman™ Unofficial order thread
This ^^^^. PLENTY of people bought yesterday because it was heading towards sell out. And then sold out.
Sales picked up today when the HHL was lifted, and dealers got what they wanted. They are still not sold out, AND the price will drop by $40 next week, based on today's spot price.
Anyone who bought as a free option to see what happens will be bailing. Whether that shows up in the next few days or the next few weeks will depend on when the Mint returns them to inventory. But these are now DOA, because selling them for $2K per ounce above spot was just obnoxious for anything with a 10K mintage.

Re: With all this talk about packages been lost or stolen how many have you had stolen or lost?
@Mr_Spud said:
We’ve had packages disappear from our front porch over the years. One was an Amazon delivery and Amazon promptly delivered a replacement. The 2nd was a box full of Christmas presents from my in laws. Two weeks later our next door neighbor brought it over, one of his friends stole it and when he found out he brought it back with nothing missing.
annoying porch pirates
Re: PCGS Cert Verification update
The aesthetics are awful imo, and on safari, everything near the search bar is overlapped and jumbled. TV of the coin is proportionally tiny, looks like an underdeveloped beta of a brand new website before any of the bugs are worked out.
Re: Caitlin Clark Card Sells for $660K
For those of us at a certain age I remember all the similar conversations when the Honus Wagner sold for over a million.
After all this time I don't even pretend to think I can predict how much a card will (or will not) be worth in the future. People are going to pay what they want for what they want.
Congratulations to this seller and buyer for both getting what they wanted.

I personally won’t delete PM’s but wish I could redact personal info without leaving the conversation entirely
