If he works out a deal he will pay, if he fails he will break his word and back out of the deal. That is not a flipper, that is a scumbag.

However, I do think Borock will find his "one right buyer" at that price eventually. May take a few years though.

Well, thoughts on this..... 1) What the hell does CGC have to do with a random mid-low-end bronze horror page? 2) I think the seller might be a little misguided in his market analysis when he states "When you say Steve Ditko Bronze Age horror page, you say $ cha-ching $" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
