Zod could understand if these values/suggested prices were in closer proximity to actual prices/values, but the disparity is astonishing.
It's like Bizarro World vs Earth; fantasy vs reality.
Don't get Zod wrong - he dutifully orders his copy every year, and gets a fanboy thrill when cracking it open.
But values/prices off by anywhere from 50% to 100% and more?
Zod understands that no one wants to see their Moby Duck collection valued less this year than last, or that their Charlton western comics weren't the best investment (in anything other than pure, confusing fun; trying to figure out if a page is missing, or the story was actually conceived & produced that way always a great challenge!), but that disparity...
Zod knows of many who haven't bought a new OPG in years (or decades) due to this credibility gap, and while he understands some of the reasons for Overstreet's disconnect, Zod still asks:
WHY does it persist?
