Believe me, this is not exactly a distinguished group of business professionals, there are plenty of cry babies. But it never hurts to try and improve the atmosphere. Touché. -J.

1Cool Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 (edited) Why did my comment show up as hidden? Let me try it again. Can anyone explain to me the argument that Vol slabs would be collapsing in price just because of the sale of the company? If Vold folded up shop tomorrow would the price of their slabbed books come crashing down? I don't think so unless fraud was the reason for the company collapse. The books were graded by a legitimate grading company and I can't see how the future of the company would effect the prices of books encapsulated in the past. To broaden the argument - would CGC prices collapse if they went away tomorrow? Maybe in 10 - 20 years when buyers would have never heard of the company but wouldn't it take awhile for that to occur?

drotto Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 I doubt that the Voldy slabs are collapsing. They have always tended to sell slightly under CGC slabs, but a big dip seems unlikely. Any time a company changes hands people get nervous, but not bad enough to sell or crack everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadroch Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 To keep you folks from jumping off the cliff, please be assured I will buy almost any SA Marvel or DC in a Voldy slab and give you thirty percent of GPA. The line forms to the right. Tony S 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they were falling, there would be a pretty high floor for the price cuts. The market is hot right now, and it wouldn't take much of a percentage discount before dealers and quasi-dealers stepped in to price enforce and take advantage of cracking/resub to CGC arbitrage opportunities.

Mijael.Levy Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 (edited) If they become less expensive it could be a great opportunity because they are well graded its not like buying PGX. A lot of golden age books are graded by Steve himself Edited November 2, 2017 by Mijael.Levy ___ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
