Here is a can of worms....If I owned the forum I would....

Kind of combining a few ideas. Tiered memberships. Bronze ($10 a year) gives you access to autograph/grade opinions from Leon and other trusted members. Silver ($25 a year) gives you bronze access plus group grading specials. Gold ($50 a year) gives you bronze, silver, and VCP. Maybe throw in one of the levels the ability for a couple of mods to be intermediates in highend trades where the members do not feel comfortable shipping directly to each other.

Endless quantities of top shelf champagne, raw oysters, caviar, Beef Wellington and Baked Alaska served by scantily clad hostesses at the Net54 National dinner. All to be paid for by members who made obscene profits last year selling their Clemente, Koufax and Rose rookie cards. You know who you are.

Don't get tiered menberships, never one to pay for supposed value. Probably because memberships, to me, detract from value.

Besides, decided I was not the joiner type of guy since country club memberships and the 1971 draft taught me otherwise.

If you use these functions, which most members do, it gives you a group discount vs buying individually.
