I gotta claim ignorance here. Other than seeing The Charlton Guy on ebay a few times..... I'm confused. He posts regularly of that forum and the forum is showing up as account suspended. It was a fairly popular board, but it did focus more on selling. I think the best thread was the one where people posted their purchases an there was a lot of obscure 40's and 50's comics posted.

I take it this is a bad thing if the account has been suspended? At first I thought you were talking about your own account.

The owner of the comics corral site had tried to create a comics auction site last year to compete with eBay. It never got any visitors, so he closed it up. Not sure what's up now. It's very unusual not to see him post somewhere. Defiant1 |

Ahh I see. He'd have to be extremely lucky for it to be something that visitors would want to use over Ebay.

In order to maximize profits for an auction site, you need the maximum number of users visiting and searching for comics to buy. It doesn't matter how many good sellers you get. If you can't get word out to the buyers, the the sellers won't do well. Several people have tried to create an ebay alternative for comics. Ebay has the market locked up because because everyone knows about it. Even big sites like Yahoo weren't able to compete.

This board has been defaced/hacked. Some of the pages work.

Still not fixed. They had pissed this guy off. He was pretty much flooding the board with crap and eventually violated the terms by posting adult pictures. He got banned. www.tumblr.com/tagged/comics+corralDefiant1 |
