Anyone else have any trouble with the Crazy Uncle auction last night?

the proprietors of Crazy Uncle Auctions never heard the expression:

You only have 1 chance to make a good first impression.

I hope this is just poor business practice, lack of preparation and dismal customer service and nothing worse.

it's hilarious I quote various sayings and idioms at work all the time...to mostly youngsters...and they usually scoff at them.

A patient of mine who is a teacher told me the other day that the kids today expect "do overs" for practically everything so they do a half assed job the first time figuring they will have a chance to "do it again!"

But it's so many boomers in this hobby who repeatedly have shown the willingness to turn a blind eye toward the questionable and downright fraudulent people and businesses. The "do over" business plan works very well in this hobby, because so many people aren't willing to call a spade a spade, which allows the questionable businesses to keep rolling right along.

Someone won, and presumably paid $39K for a 52 Mantle in that auction!

My lot was less than $200. Though I really wanted the cards (51 Bluebacks), it's time to call the credit card company.

the "boomers" are heavily invested and don't want to lose their eggs!
