Jason, I agree with most of what you're saying. Here's the problem. Most people I know and talk to don't want any part of an immigration bill until AFTER the border is secured, not BEFORE. It makes no sense to pass an immigration bill for the illegals that are already here, but then leave the borders unsecure for more to come over.

If you wanted to buy a dog, would you buy the dog and then repair all the holes in your fence, or would you repair all the holes in your fence and then buy the dog? This is common sense.

Mr. James, I do not exchange dialogue with you because you are a prick. I will make a brief exception here to point out that my sources, had you chosen to read them, were often from Fox News and were of Republicans, not the “liberal media”. I have “a clue”, and my views as expressed herein are embraced by more Americans than not, although that too is irrelevant to their validity.

You will recall that you went on ad nauseum with attacks against my honesty as a collector, my professional and personal integrity, and you clamored how collectors would put me on their blocked list. For those who have forgotten, the thread I called Carterscards2006–it’s a long read:
http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=133471

You seemed to take delight in having notified an ebay dealer with whom I had a dispute so that he would take to the forum and show me what’s what. Of course, it turns out he was a convicted felon who had only rather recently been released from prison for embezzlement of over a million dollars. In addition, when he came on the board and laid out his defense– an outlandish fabrication that was pounced on by the rest of the forum and decried as rubbish–your decision to intermeddle made you look even more foolish. Oh and by the way, I did in fact receive my full refund, so you were wrong on that too.

Now more recently you once again decided to be the vanguard for the hobby, intermeddling when a board member pointed out how a Cy Symour Lenox went for cheap. You of course had to get involved and contact the seller, who ultimately refused to ship the card and claimed to have made a pricing error–although his pricing history of other cards suggested he simply did not know what he had. Many here would consider that to be poor form at best.

Now today you insult the entire State of Arizona, calling it a crap hole state.

This is a watercooler forum in which I like anyone can express my views and I like anyone can choose with whom I wish to have dialogue. I have no problem if others choose to agree with you, whatever their reasoning. I may even chime in on topics where you have posted, but I will not engage you directly, because again, you are a prick. I have had nothing but good business dealings with the folks on this forum, and am pleased to have made a great number of friends here. I am equally pleased to know that you are not one of them.

Wow, I don't even know where to start with this one. For anybody that doesn't want to read 53 pages of back and forth nonsense, here’s the synopsis: Todd bought a GAI graded card and decided to send it to SGC for cross over. It wouldn’t cross, so Todd wanted his money back. Some agreed that he should have been refunded, an equal number disagreed. I don’t want to re-hash the issue, but I do want to address Todd’s typical lies he posted. First, Todd, show me where I notified the seller. Second, you did not win the case, nor receive a refund – see page 46, post #452. Todd has a history of lying and backing out of deals. Below is a screenshot of 3 negatives Todd received for doing such. That was when sellers could leave negatives. From what I’ve heard Todd continues to back out of deals, only now the sellers can’t leave negative feedback to warn others. Joey, is that really you???

Yes, I did warn the seller of his pricing mistake because he was also a personal friend. You failed to mention that part, Todd. You wouldn’t do the same for a friend?

People can form their own conclusions.

This is why we should not have political discussions on the board, as they always end badly....although I have been reading it.

I have written a post 3 different times, seriously 3, and not hit the "submit" button. I have been reading it too and was letting it go to try to be nice. As long as it doesn't get totally vile this thread will stay open. The rules against talking politics remains. Please don't do it on this board......this one thread...well, it's one thread.

[nolemmings]

Indeed people can draw their own conclusions. For example, please read post 275 in the Carter's thread, in which Mr. James tells P.Spaeth "Oh, I promise you it will get a lot better tomorrow. A little birdie told me so." Several hours later Pup6913 posts he was contacted by the felon who said he was alerted to the site by another board member; hmmm, I wonder who, and then two or so hours after that the con himself posts.

As for a refund,



So by all means, please judge for yourselves. BTW, that so-called history of lies and backing out of deals is explained in the thread, and of course went back 7 (now 10) years-- I also will explain them again to anyone who PMs me other than the prick. I would also invite anyone here who has had a bad or even discourteous transaction or pm exchange with me on net54 to alert the board to such event.
