Posted By: <b>scott brockelman</b><p>There is no Uncle Jacks Registry listing, so I guess he just felt like paying big.<br /><br />Sounds like this Mckee guy has a problem with Registry folks. Perhaps he never met one in person.<br /><br /><br /><img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14>)))))))))))))))))))))))))))<br /><br />Geez, your posting your phone number? sure to get a few unpleasant calls or a date?

Posted By: <b>Todd Schultz</b><p>but I'll buy UJ HOFers all day at $200 in that grade if you have any for sale. Not to be argumentative, but last I looked there are no UJ sets on the PSA registry, and only one on SGC (and he didn't win this). I paid more than $400 for this very Lindstrom card in SGC 40 a couple of years ago.

Posted By: <b>fkw</b><p>Ive been laughing at the prices of these for a year now. The guys buying these for these crazy prices missed the boat, 4-5 years ago they could have picked them up for $100-$200 or less.

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>ok, I admit it, I just hate registry folks and I was prejudice. I apologize. But I am 3 away from this set and am getting really pissed that I can't collect any more because of this grading bull ****! I obviously need to sell and move on. Or burn everything and film it.

Posted By: <b>Mike Pugeda</b><p>Hey Dan,<br /><br />You got me on the W. Johnson Piedmont stamp, I thought I had it all the way, but something told me you might put a late bid in. Then I tried to win the Ruth Connie Mack and guess what...Oh well, congrats. Maybe next time. Take care and I'll see you at the next Reading show.<br /><br />Mike Pugeda

Posted By: <b>Steve Murray</b><p>Dan, I'm curious, if this is a $200 card why did you bid $1,498?

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>Matt</b><p>Steve - can't you read? The idiots pay $1500 for a $200 card - he didn't want to be an idiot, so he only bid $1498.

Posted By: <b>steve yawitz</b><p>$200 for the card, $1,298 for the plastic?

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>Because I am an idiot trying to complete a set with all of the grading fools out there eating me for breakfast. I know you guys know exactly how I feel trying to complete a set I have been working on for 30 years so I must eat crow here.

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>Very sour grapes, but pay backs are bitch.

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>I made sure if I lost someone was paying $1500 for it. How long have you guys been collecting???

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>Sorry again, I didn't realize Lindstrom was in the HOF. Ok, $500 at best.

Posted By: <b>John</b><p>Dan;<br /><br />You have to keep the registry "Whale's" at bay, the only way I know how buy feeding them a steady diet of Wonka brand Whale feed!<br /><br /><img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/piojohn3/junkforumimages/websize/561%20copy.jpg"><br /><br />We start with the finest high numbered certification slips grind them to a pulp, simmer with old world spices then bake in a 350 degree oven for 45 mins with just a hint of brown sugar and cinnamon.<br /><br />If you like this you may also want to try Wonka's "I cant believe it's not graded!" spread.<br />

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>John, I have tried that stuff and wouldn't feed it to my worst enemies!! It does keep u regular though!!! God collecting is a pain in the ARSSSSS

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>Rawn Hill</b><p>I feel your pain brutha. I collect a certain common T-206 and have recently found an ebay stalker driving up the totals on the card. No way to contact them now that ebay has made everything private. Hell I'll give them my best card just to layoff.

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>Jantz</b><p>...I was watching that T206 also (figured that you were too) and thought that it went high. I didn't bid when I saw the price nearing the auction's end & passed....quickly.<br /><br /><br />Jantz

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>James Feagin</b><p>Dan,<br /><br />So I assume if you would have had that card in your personal collection for some time, and had set up at a show, say Reading, you would put a $500 price tag on it?<br /><br />James

Posted By: <b>Rawn Hill</b><p>I can't keep up with these new terms, "crack me up" is that something with a pipe in the city?

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>no new term, meant just made myself laugh. YES STEVE NICE! I am tired of losing to people who care nothing about cards but care about a number on a stupid label that some idiot put there!! Nice is right! If I lose, someone is paying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>Yes James, that is exactly correct. I had a red Simmons in a PSA 7 holder for $900 at several shows so darn tootin. A Lindstrom in a 4 would be $500. NEXT QUESTION?

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>Rawn Hill</b><p>Just as soon buy raw cards, it makes no difference to me as long as they are not friggin' reprints. BUY THE CARD AND NOT THE HOLDER!

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>Come on now, any more chumps want to chime in while I am on a roll????

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>Steve</b><p>From the looks of the bidding history it appears that their were at least 3 idiots.<br /><br /><br />Steve<br /><br /><br />

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>JK</b><p>Am I missing something - looks to me like the idiot paid nearly 2k for the card.

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>I agree, and I was one of them. I am sure those other ones are close to finishing the set. What a joke

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>I posted this when it was at $1500. I was early on my blasting as usual. Probably just a true set collector that needed it to finish the set like Steve here. I am 3 away and Steve and the winner are probably just 1 away from completing this set.

Posted By: <b>Steve</b><p>Dan you are acting like a spoiled school child. You have no idea about the people <br />that are also bidding on the cards that you are. They too may want the card as much as you do and for whatever reason.<br /><br />Steve

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>Interesting, the winner bids on coins and the seller's Uncle Jacks only. Very interesting. It looks like the only fool involved in this auction was me.

This must be a REGISTRY IDIOT
 

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>I agree Steve, I am a very spoiled school child who has been collecting 38 years and used to get whatever he wanted up until about 7 years ago. I can't argue with you about that. But I do appreciate having this forum to come and cry to because it makes me feel better. I appreciate you listening and feeling my pain too. thanks. Looking at the winner I would have to say that he is a coin collector that was helping a friend run up his auctions. Or quite possibly a coin collector that only collects UJ's? And yes, you are absolutely correct, he may be more passionate about collecting these than I am, I do not know him. Dan.

Posted By: <b>James Feagin</b><p>Dan,<br /><br /> I have no interest in getting into a tiff with you, and calling me a chump is out of line. You don't know me personally, but you do business with my company, and I'm shocked the way you're reacting to a loss (over a baseball card). Maybe you're a bit intoxicated, if you're not though, then wow. How can you judge who is a TRUE hobbyist and who isn't?
