Incredible Gesture by a Fellow Board Member

[KMayUSA6060]

I felt like this deserved its own thread.

I'd like to give a huge thank you to NJ Dunkin. Total stranger, aside from our conversations via email/PM on this board. He told me the other day he had a card he wanted to send me - said it would look good in my collection. He knows I'm slowly but surely putting together The Monster. So he sends me this card as a gift for absolutely no reason. I don't have the card, nor do I have the back. Unbelievable gesture. So thank you, NJ. I really appreciate it, and will get you back eventually!

Outstanding.

The hobby needs more NJs and less (fill in the blank).

Very nice. I've dealt with NJ and he has always been a good guy.

Great job NJ Dunkin, that's what it is all about !

I'd like to add a side story. About 4 1/2 years ago I started building
a low grade Monster T206 set for my then 8 year old son. I waited
until I had acquired roughly 350 different before I put together
and official want list. The first person I sent the list to was Sir Dan Mckee.
True to Dan's nature he drops me a quick email and says " I had a few
and I sent them to you" To that I replied great, thank you Dan. What do I owe you ?

He then says, " There for your son right?, there's no charge "

What can you say other than, great hobby, greater people !

Thanks again and again Dan !!!

NJ, you are the man !

I know your purchases have been budget minded, and for you to do something like that, you deserve every kind word that has been said.

Really nice gesture, NJ!

I have to give my shout out to John Dreker, when I was putting my T206 set together, I got down to two cards and received an email for John not to purchase them, they were heading my way. Sure enough a couple days later had the two cards at no charge from John, another great guy in the hobby. They are out there, a shame the bad ones put such a scar on the hobby.
