I used post number 68, by Leon, in this thread, http://www.net54baseball.com/showthr...=146321&page=7 to link starcard1234@gmail.com to the person who was trying to scam me. That thread was about Joey Farino so I assumed that it was already determined that he was Sam1952. I guess that's still yet to be absolutely proven.

Here's the bottom line as I see it... Joey Farino is about a 3/10 when it comes to someone you can trust in this hobby. Taxman/mrmint23 makes claims that Joey is a 1/10 so Joey wants to come defend himself. Whether or not Joey has done EVERY thing he's been accused of, he's done enough to not be trusted. Backing out of eBay deals and threatening with negative feedback to get a discount is all I need to hear to know that he is someone that I do not want to deal with at all.
The only person I EVER had to threaten with negative feedback was for the Joe Namath rc I bought almost 2 yrs ago. Seller sold it as raw and told me multiple times the card had never been altered and said he paid $2000 for it. I bought it, overnighted it to SGC and it came back as trimmed. confronted seller for a refund and he denied it and said SGC was wrong. Told me he would not refund any of my money and argued with me over it. I told him i was going to leave him negative feedback and let people know what a bad seller he was if i didnt get a refund. Kirk offered me $400 for the card knowing it was trimmed. Sold the card to kirk and also got a $400 refund from the seller after much hassle. I broke even
