Also back in the 90's and early 2000's I used to give out free opinions on McGwire signed items. Even stuff I was planning on bidding on. Some really great stuff would get ended early on Ebay and I didn't know why. Then a few years later the guy who was asking for my opinions on signatures came to me trying to sell me all the stuff that ended early on Ebay at a marked up price. Not everyone is a nice guy so you protect yourself.

Here is the full photo. It sold for almost $800 without the juice. Too rich for me.

I know I have asked your opinion on an item maybe 10 years ago and around the same time actually purchased a signed '85 McGwire from you and you were so generous you threw in a signed Beckett of Big Mac on the house. You're the best and I, as well as others, appreciate your help and generosity.
