Most been noticing people just selling, even at the local level.

I mean, logistically it is loads easier to sell and use the funds towards that.

I see a lot more selling since it’s probably easier to manage and then buy what you want. But once in a while I do see people trading

Closer to the holidays or evens aka SDCC you will see more selling than trading. Many collectors are either trying to get funds for the holidays or events. I've thought about getting out several times myself but I like my DC collection and just need a Green Arrow #15 to feel completed. :freddy3:

easier to sell and then buy what you want. unless its a big event with alot of people then theres a better chance to get what you want.

I'm thinking about selling a few grails to my local toy shop here! But they do pay more value if you trade in for store credit.

I'd say a good majority are selling but there are still trades taking place. You see it quite a bit (in the few groups I'm in) where folks do trade (or prefer to trade). It's usually the same folks but it's all good.

Exactly, the one or 2 pieces I'm looking for almost no one has for trade!

Trade and cash is always an option but agreed that it’s hard to find 2 people trading exact pops
