Bob is also a recognized bridge player. But having seen him teach a class I can tell you using him as an instructor is not for the feint of heart, or anyone with half an ego..

The 88 Cloth are a neat set, one of the harder Topps 80 issues.
I have been rather frustrated with another person I was dealing with who has seemingly taken my money and cards. It is so nice to have found someone who was the exact opposite of that knucklehead!

The story had a lot of back door action butt it was very entertaining. Congrats on the pick ups .
So true about it being a dream!

Incredibly kind of Bob to send you a card for free that you just got done basically saying "name your price" about. I've seen some great hobby gestures, and been the recipient of a couple, but this one might take the cake.

We should all strive for hobby harmony like Bob.
Take the cake, ice cream and dinner for sure for me!

Tanner that is awesome and Bob sounds like a great guy!!!

Some day when/if I ever grow up I aspire to be like Bob.

There are some great people in this hobby and there are several on this board that have sent me some amazing stuff. Including one gentleman that posted in this thread that sent me a complete run of vintage Bowman reprint sets minus the 1955 set.
