While I understand where your coming from, this blanket statement of "newbies" shouldn't be applied to everyone. I for one am just getting into vintage autos and memorabilia after nearly seven years of collecting modern stuff. As well as being an active member on another game used forum for five. My first post on this site was about a ruth auto, not because I was attempting to scam or "test the waters" it was simply because I saw the plethora of knowledge on this site.

Shelly said "most", so it wasn't a blanket statement.

"Anyone" to me means all. Don't want to take the thread off track, just my 2 cents.

Holy cow.

Shelly - I am beginning to lean more in your direction on this.

I appreciate the opinions that are given here. I used to collect HOF signed plaques but stopped. If I was concerned about the authenticity of a signature I would definitely ask here. From what I have seen posted, there are some who are trying to slip items by but for the most part I think its just people looking for advice.

I LOVE this forum and especially appreciate the help of Richard, Shelly, Jim Stinson and Chris 'thetruthisoutthere'!

The fact that these people will offer for free, what some of them make a living doing, is appreciated beyond words.

I agree.. Kudo's to our members who consistently help and give of their time. The only way to stay ahead of the curve is to be vigilant.

And I think it is important to always question everything. People coming on this and other forums, with very posts asking questions about what to look for, is this good or bad etc... always get the courtesy of being vetted, overtly or covertly. I guess I am just a suspicious person.

I did mean anyone in regards to not helping them if there on here 3 years or less.
I meant most when it came down to comments made.
