At this point, a million dollars of Jeff's money won't buy the card.... I do not do business like that period!

I don't care about "the hit" The problem with the hobby is it is all about money, I will gladly get buried with this card, I do not need the money... GET IT?

Bingo Luke! Thanks for the sensible post! Dan

I had nothing to do with him being Jewish, and could care less either way as I collect the Baltimore News Schedule cards.

You people are way to into the value part of the hobby, I have refused tons of money for cards that I will never be able to sell later for the same amount.

Classic! :)

Bingo..... Man you people are not as dumb as I look :)

Bingo again! You are all learning that Aeder is a cry baby.

Who cares/..... I am keeping it so if it is valued at $100 or $1,000,000.00 doesn't matter.... I have tons of other expensive cards so means nothing to me!

This is complete BULLSHIT! I sent him regular scans at 300 dpi

I sell as darby-s and you get what you see in my listings

Thanks for reminding me why I stopped posting here

Bingo again!! Some of you are much smarter than others here :)

Thanks Mark, you are a good friend

When this first happened I posted here asking if anyone has done business with Aeder because I had a bad transaction. One guy answered that this was the funniest thing he had ever heard.... well I hope he read the article.


Personally I thought the card belonged in Jeff's museum even though I never part with my schedule cards.


But with a deal gone sour, I am very happy to keep it whether it is worth the $2K I paid for it or not.

Dan Mckee.

I can attest to this statement. He has some sweet Gibson candy cards. Won't sell :(

This is ridiculous, I do not doctor photos, the guy viewing them is a complete ignorant non collecting idiot.

Someone please send me Irv's ebay ID so I can block it, anyone comparing me to that scumbag battlefield has no right ever doing business with me. Look at my feedback as darby-s, this is completely unwarranted.

Of course it didn't look like a 1, it is a gorgeous card, has color all the way to the edge like a 1971 topps, has a horizontal crease and a tiny spot of paperloss on back. Killer eye appeal but a technical grade of 1, and all he wanted was that it was authenticated because he is too stupid to know the cards himself. Let some 25 year old kid tell him it is real, well I didn't need that when I just mashed those Washington Times cards on ebay..... No need for some punk grading service to tell me they are real......

I am gone

Done with this chatboard stuff

Did you read my next post after the one I posted above, or did you conveniently skip that one so you could add drama to this one?

While you go retrieve that one to quote, read the one above and tell me where I personally accuse you of actually doing that. :confused:

Sadly Irv, I do not read well at 54 years old and a Redneck

But I truly hope you do not think I am near the scumbag Battlefield is.

I am a collector at heart and pride myself on good business.

Sorry I missed your follow up posts

Dan

I used to thrive on here, probably started more crap than I should have and was a real asshole at times.... Now I am old and too thin skinned to come back, kinda sad as I could really bring a lot of quality knowledge about the 1987 Topps set that I specialize in.

Damn and the 1987 Topps is in my 64th favorite Topps set.:)

Dan,

I have always wondered what kind of wood is used in the borders of the 1987 Topps set.

My gut says oak, but I wouldn't rule out bamboo (though that species wasn't as trendy 30 years ago.)

Likely cocobolo.

at least make it '68 Topps wood veneer..(and I get that it was Dan who made the first reference to 1987 Topps)....but just sayin'..

It was made from wood grain paneling stripped from the basement of a 1960's home or old medical office in a TB ward.

I just bought a T205 Broadleaf from Dan and no complaint about his scans. Good person to deal with in my opinion.

Pau Lope

There is a thread on the autograph forum about the 1987 Topps Baseball set that may be one of the most fascinating threads on this entire forum. And I'm not even kidding.

Dan,

I agree with you. As a 1987 Topps specialist, I have asked only you a question on Net54 and all I get is a bunch of fodder from a half a dozen other yahoos.:D


or is it 7 or 8 yahoos by now?;)

I too have bought from Dan. A beautiful T206 John Ganzel PSA 4.5 to be exact. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice the card looked after receiving it, never thinking it could be as beautiful in hand as it looked in Dan's crystal clear scans. :)

Dan is one of the good guys in the hobby and I am proud to call him my friend.

Done numerous dealings with Dan and he is a class act all the way.

I always thought 1968 was basket weave. :confused:

I've only Purchased one item from Dan in the past and it was one of the best transactions . He had a card listed in his Darby's eBay store that I really wanted as a buy it now ,but was out of my price range. His listing included a make an offer option. After contacting him he gave me a very fair price and also allowed me to pay it off in 3 installments . Since the card was very rare and ungraded I was unsure if it was altered and told him I was sending it to a grading co.to in -case it for protection. He concluded our transaction by telling me not to worry that if the card did not get a numerical grade I could send it back for a full refund. The card came back with a favorable grade . Truly amazing customer service and a pleasure to deal with.

(T206 Joe Tinker Port missing Red Ink)

Thanks again Dan!

No worries, Dan. My soon to be 53 yr old eyes aren't much better. :D

+1000 Dan is truly a class act and a hobby friend!!!

Burlap is how I understand it.

Dan the man! One of the true real guys of the hobby and in the top class of knowledge here in the board. One of my favorite cards he sold me two decades ago was a Joe DiMaggio Zeenut card with coupon and he was flexible on price which I appreciated. Plus, he is a great buyer as he doesn't even haggle that much which I feel is a lost art. Dan is like EF Hutton of the stock market. When Dan talks, collectors should listen. I know I do and I'm thankful to have him as a longtime friend.

Dan is always easy to work with.

For those who have not met Dan, he is one of the foremost experts on T206 oddities, amongst other early baseball collectibles.

I am fortunate to (still) be able to collect with my dad - and we have done several transactions with Dan. Dan has a truly remarkable collection and tends to price cards to remain in his collection (which I fully understand) but occasionally I just can't help myself.

On the other hand, when Dan has purchased an item from my dad or I, it's a very straightforward process ... "what are you asking for this xx card?" Once answered, this is followed immediately by either a payment or a small smile with "I'll pass".

Congrats Dan on some well deserved fame.

Congrats on the article Dan. Also do you have any of those rare Farino cards? :)
