It sounds like the CU has declared war on collectors. Pay, or you can not play.

How unfortunate.  It will prove to be a poor business decision, I'm sure.

I have a long memory for this kind of thing, too.  While there are other TPGs who are more understanding and collector-friendly, we still have options.


BTW, I can view the general price guide but not details. (not a current member)

The Forums and price guide and B/S have just gone back up and are now available to me.
Perhaps it was a test of what is to come. Something is going on over at CU and I do not believe
that it is good.

Normally, when they do periodic maintenance, folks are warned and this time there was a strange notice.
Its as if it was a test and they hoped that no one would notice it............................but we did!
