So that I don't feel too slimy, I never actually reveal the exact cards that I have consigned. Each contest is designed for folks to guess what I consign out of many options.
So in my mind I feel like I am promoting the hobby, and a great auction company, with the side effect of having more eyes potentially seeing the lots I did consign.
I am a sneaky bastard, so I will award myself with this seal of approval:

I didn't remember who it was but those were the posts I was thinking of. My point was they aren't pretending to be something they're not and so, to me, are completely cool.
As opposed to this "look at this amazing card that I've never seen before" post where he was on this site posting about the same card a year ago.
