My Last Words

I didn't photograph the Warren Spahn and the Braves Fence Busters but I did the same thing to them.

I'm sorry to burst anyone's bubble, but your grader of choice, the #1 company in the business sucks. Their graders don't have any special skills that the rest of us don't have. The grades that they assign to cards are meaningless and it's absolutely pathetic that people will spend $3,300 on a 1962 Topps common just because someone making $9 an hour to look at baseball cards said that the card is an 8 on a scale of 1-10.

It's my weekend and I've already downed a six pack. I'm not going to argue with anybody any more over this. You asked for evidence and I've provided it as best as I can over the internet. When I get my 1982 Topps Gary Templeton back I'm going to list it on E-bay so that some poor sucker who's building a set of 1982 Topps cards exclusively in PSA grades 8 or above will bid $200 on it and get his name on the PSA registry. Joe Orlando has seen the last of my money and if you're smart you will follow me. Collector's Universe has quite a racket going and I'm not going to be a sucker for it any longer.

Have fun collecting cards instead of plastic holders with labels.
