In my opinion he was an Awful grader., Terrible at determining alterations,and a huckster of the highest order. I think he was an asshole and did not make the hobby despite him constantly telling people he did. He was a dinosaur in the business as early as 1990. He made money sire but a lot of the guys he flipped the cards to made more than he did. His business acumen and card knowledge are both greatly exaggerated. If you caught him on the right day he could be charming but more often than not he was just a conceited jerk. I hope he found peace because he seemed to always be in the eye of the storm here on earth usually by situations he himself created. Frankly I don’t think it's a coincidence the hobby grew even larger financially after he basically left it.
