Quote:Sifu ... I hope that your post was in jest. If the
RCM uses coin sites to get feedback, they certainly haven't been listening. If the comic book coins make you happy, more power to you, but the
RCM has taken Canadian coin collecting culture in exactly the wrong direction. My heavens, silver at $50, $60, $100 an ounce .. what are newbies going to feel when they try to resell what they bought and get 30-40 cents on the dollar?
They use it to get feedback on coin design and likes.
At least the
RCM is attempting to market coins to millennials in mass. And what better way to do that, than at the biggest concentration of millennials. You have to start somewhere. I do not see coin stores/coin clubs doing much at all for 20 somethings. Their waiting for them to walk through the door? It will be long wait. Contrary to popular belief they do have $$$. 1/3 of my IT office workers is made up of millennials. Yes and with that a lot of high priced iPhones and Android devices.
You are worried about price?
Takara Megatron $250.00 to $325.00
Takara Tomy Transformers masterpieces $64.00 to $159.00
Marvel Legends action figures $24.00 to $32.00 the scarcer ones get bought and flip for higher prices on
ebay.
This is for pieces of moulded plastic. Walked into a Toy's R Us lately?
Resell? I still and plenty of others have my bronze age comics in long boxes. Right beside my 80s hockey cards. The Canadian way of storage.
Wayne Gretzky O'Pee Chee rookie hockey card
First appearance of Deadpool
First appearance of Venom
First appearance of Cable
1st issue of Suicide Squad
Full run series of Mike Grell's The Warlord Comic starting in the 70s
etc.
The one fun thing missing from children right now, we grew up having Saturday morning cartoons.
Geek out!
