Arkturus

This is the only item I saved after selling off my VGAs and minty CIBs.  Would WATA consider grading this?

Beautiful guys. Loving it.

These prices on ebay are crazy now, jesus!!  Influx of a small group of rich buyers or just overall a spike in interest in our what was once a niche hobby?  I want my titles back!!  Who has em?! Where is my qualified big box gyro lol.  Lost in space I suppose.  /cry

Have we any CIB and/or VGA show off collection threads?  My most fun time was drooling over everyone’s setups and titles.  I cant find em anywhere...

Hey I remember you! Wutsup man.  
 

I wish I didnt sell off my high grade nes VGAs and even more my CIBs but I had to for the kid.  I want to get back in into collecting just not sure what route I want to take.

Hey good to see you again, been a long time.  You collected a lot of VGA, sold them off and disappeared around 2013 IIRC.  Now VGA has a competitor in Wata, comic book collectors piled in droves and prices have gone insane but have finally started to cool a bit.

As for NA - Go Collect bought it with half assed promised and let it collapse into the ground.

Wow your memory is better than mine!  Yes that is about right.  I also had about 400 minty CIBs and HT BB’s as well which I sold off entirely.  All that is left is my signed MTPO CIB haha.  

2013 is right.  The year my child was born.  Dun dun dunnnn.  He is 6 now.  At this point I am just perusing around.  Wanted to see what was going on.

Wow that sucks.  So much nostalgia, old collection posts, memories from that forum.  That is horrible.  So everyone from there migrated here now for the most part?

I was a long time member (vga collector) for many years.  After a long hiatus I wanted to get back into it and the forum is gone?  What happened?
