It's getting more and more difficult.

Between the increasing number of collectors added to the registry every day and the determination of existing collectors who are continually adding to their sets, I am having a heck of a time staying in the top 500! Selfish I know, and I?m sure I?m the only one who cares about overall ranking, but I like being in the top 500. Besides, we?re in a recession people- you should be saving your money! What?s that? You are saving money by investing in a stable market like comics instead of losing it in the stock market? Oh, OK then, that makes sense I guess. I?ll just look on the bright side- it?s a great sign for the future of our hobby when so many people choose to invest this much time and resources into expanding their collections. That can never really be a bad thing...except when I get outbid.

P.S. I?ll be submitting a number of books to CGC in the next couple of weeks- keep an eye out for my next post and I?ll give you all the details.

Til next time?
