PWCC - Sorry, Yet Again

Johnny630 · #1 10-23-2021, 06:12 AM

If a indictment and criminal conviction of PWCC does happen then you will see major hit to the current prices as a whole for this industry. If nothing happens which I continue to think will be the case we continue to March on.

Is the juice worth the squeeze ? I’d say no. The court of public opinion and eBay has dealt with them, that’s enough for me.

Innocent until proven guilty.

John, I disagree. Most of us myself included are like rabbits on Viagra when it comes to buying cards. Half the industry could get thrown in jail and we'd just move to buying from the other half. I don't think a conviction of Brent would affect anything.

I agree. I don't see how PWCC going down would have an effect on overall market prices.

Guess it would depend on the collateral damage, and what exactly the went down for. I assume you dont mean their website went down. In that case, probably no effect.

List of altered cards, consignors, shillers, people unable to remove items from the vault, panic selling, pandemonium ensuing. Well I'd think that Might have an impact. They were, of course, the greatest Ebay sellers and always got a premium for their secure shipping

I'm assuming worst case scenario, conviction for selling altered cards and shill bidding. I'll even assume a couple of others go down with him. I don't see a market impact, this hobby is dug in way too deep to change its habits, it will move right past it.

I really like Johnny and I enjoy reading his posts, but he was the one telling people that the hobby was doomed and to sell back in ... wait for it ... 2019!

You really have to be careful who you listen to, kids!

I�m glad you like reading my posts, I like yours as well.

I�ll eat it, I�ve been wrong on the outlook of the card market since 2019.

Other than taking a pack of crooks out it wont make a bit of difference. Whatever they don't sell will just fall to the others to sell.

I don't know, but my intuition says they won't do as well as their own site. eBay is a unique place for what PWCC does. And I'm not talking about shilling or trimming, I'm talking about offering at auction 40,000 lots.
