Default Shout Out to mantlerulz...

On ebay searching for cards that could advance my 1962 Topps Green Tints 'research,' I came across a wildly miscut card that would be helpful to my efforts. I sent the seller (mantlerulz) a message asking if he sent the card in a plain white envelope (instead of the usual $3+ shipping methods), would he accept a lower price for it (It's a card no normal human being would want. Ha ha.). He got back to me and talked about ebay's BS (my word, not his) TRS status policy, and how problematic it would be to not have a tracking number, etc. (I'm paraphrasing), but since he likes net54 so much, he offered to send me the card for free. He had my address from past purchases, dropped the card in the mail and it arrived quickly. It was such a magnanimous gesture, and he keeps rejecting my efforts to send him a couple of bucks, so let me say it here. Mantlerulz is beyond a stand-up seller. Go buy stuff from him!!!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
