Default Forever Thread topics -alway come up every once in awhile

I had a thread about Net54 speak and its a little bit like this but this is about common thread topics that we keep seeing over and over

'Prices are falling'- someone posts this and just watches how people fire away with their own agenda

Auction house recent sales were strong- someone hoping their cards go up wants to hear positive things..



SGC sales are just as good as PSA- the SGC lovers say this then the PSA people start citing past sales.

Is this auto real?- no it isnt...

Im leaving the hobby - please talk me out of it..

Covid is good or bad- Fun to see people argue

Tell me how to make money selling and buying cards/collections- I dont care if you make a living already doing this, tell me all your secrets.. i want to know how to make money and take it out of your pocket.. tell me exactly what to buy and sell so i can make money because of course everyone wants to help in that..

Should seller keep their sell price on net 54 after its sold- I always comment on that one usually, it always get me!

Which super card should i buy?- I cant affored any of them...

Should i buy this card in a crazy third party holder KSA or whatever, will PSA grade it the same...of course i am buying the card for 70% then what the PSA grade would sell for----- no it wont grade the same..

"I know nothing about autographs, is this autograph real?"

"No, sorry, its fake"

I know nothing about cards, then makes serious lowball offer on your cards.

When deal is reached they pay with PP account linked to the card shop they own/work at.

Similar one is when selling asking crazy high pricing because they don't know anything about cards. Then when you make a trade plus cash offer they lowball you with every low sold price on the internet for your card.

It is amazing how many people say they know nothing about the hobby when negotiating that really work at/own card shops/AHs.

I have this great card in an xxx holder, I want to cross it over to a yyy holder, think it will get the same grade or better? -- Freaking NO.

I just got my card back from yyy company and they downgraded my card!!!! What can I do?? -- learn from the errors in your ways and soon you will know the ways of the card grading force.

Should I cross over a card or send it to them raw?

if someone tells me they dont know nothing about the hobby, its a red flag as they will ask for so much so they dont make a 'mistake' or just a lie...i just dont even bother trying.. . plus doesnt feel right to try to deal with someone who says that if talking any real money......
