impossible to get through for the last 45 minutes. Oh--and no callbacks! "We only have three people here, manning the phones,"--this is the guy who appeared on the cover of SCD for like HUNDREDS of years! EVERY WEEK!

So, you don't know if you've won until TA TAAA!

The next day, he personally calls all the winners! I was sitting in the living room with my other half, feeling fairtly pleasaed that I didn't have to pay 800+ for a Cracker Jack Brown (I said, this was several years ago!)--when he calls. "This is Alan Rosen. You hasve been successful in your bid of $800 (+) for the 1915 Cracker Jack Mordecai Brown." Goof grief--Bob can't know I spent over 800 on a baseball card!.. "ER..what's the damage?" He tells me. "Mmm...Mint, or Rosen?" "Rosen" "Thank you very much. Goodbye. "Goodbye." Nice card, huh?

Hee...
