Jeff KennedyHello All,
Keeping with the "pat on the back" thread, I wanted to express my sincere appreciation to Scott Brockelman and T206Monsta (Pat Roche). Prior to discovering this board in mid-January, my options for obtaining vintage material was limited to EBay and what other dealers I could find on the internet. After discovering the board, I was able to meet Pat and began chatting on a nightly basis with him about T206's. Since Pat had already completed the T206 set in the early 80's and then bagan to collect dupes soon thereafter, he seemed to have an endless supply of T206 cards that I had been searching for. Pat was not only top notch to deal with, but he was also crazy fair with his prices selling me many high end cards at a fraction of what he could make off them if he listed them on EBay. So if I have'nt told you enough Pat, THANKS! You are one of the good guys. After T206's came another obsession of mine T207's. Enter Scott Brockelman stage left. Like Pat, Scott seemed to have a disturbing amount of rare T207's. I say disturbing because life in my house was'nt too pleasant night after night while I tried to justify to my wife why I was spending so much on little pieces of cardboard. In the end it all worked out, thanks to a very understanding wife and a patient Scott Brockelman. With the help of both of these guys I now have some of the cards that I use to just look at in books and drool over. THANKS GUYS!!! And THANKS to Elliot, whom if it was'nt for this board, i would probably still be drooling over some of these cards in books.
