They're flippers.
They'd be flippers if they actually sold something. Who buys from them? I know there's occasions like when Mike bit the bullet and bought something from them, but how often does that happen? Can't be that many collectors out there desperate enough to deal with them hehe...no offense, Mike..you did what you had to do.

I did not get to screwed. I bought a $3400 Spider-Woman cover in 2005. At the time it was probably a $2,000 cover. Not as big of a hose job as most.

There is a Ghost Rider cover up right now also with the Hulk on it for over $11,000. Guess who is selling that piece.

What cover did you find that irresistable?

P.S. Might I ask what you do for a living?

The stuff these guys do boggles my mind. Every piece of art I see these idiots get their hands on it looks like they've pasted the title, logos and credits all over the actual artwork. Are those actually affixed permanently, or do they at least set it up so they can be removed with minimal hassle? Or is it just a photoshop job and nothing is done to the artwork?
