"Since the entire DP staff wants the guide to be the "Beckett for our hobby", I can tell you we're heading in opposite directions on this issue, you and I. Sorry. "
I made my point sound confusing. What I meant was that every card store in the country has price guides up the wazoo. It's nearly impossible to go into a card store and have an amazing score, where as with video games, I can still walk into stores and find great stuff, at great prices. If every game store and every flea market guy has a DP guide, that will take a lot of the fun out of collecting. This post wasn't necessarilly about the guide though, so I'm probably going off on another rant. The guide is a great tool though, and it is the Beckett of video game collecting. I just can't type and make sense today.![]()
As to the other stuff, what kind of promotion has been going on? The only stuff I've noticed are the magazine articles and such. I'd consider that good promotion, seeing as an everyday gamer probably won't go out of there way to a site like this unless they really had an interest in classiscs. I guess I wasn't reading the original post carefully enough. When I first read it, it sounded like you were planning something huge.
