Without question, he packs them up and sends them to me. Without negotiation, we agree on a fair price for both of us. By adding this group of 57, I am only 18 Blankets away from the 181 set, no I'm not going to chase the "Reds" There are truly some amazing people here. They treat you fair and honor. Reputation is more precious than any of my possessions, guard it folks.

Kris Sweckard you are a treasure to this community. Thank you sir.

Here is how my set looks in their binders. My new additions are already put away.

Great story. Honor, integrity, trust, keeping your word, being grateful and letting people that helped you know it. Seems so out of fashion doesn't it? But so refreshing when you find people who believe in those values.

I've sent complete strangers thousands of dollars based on the word of another member here and it's the best feeling in the world.

Love to hear stories like this one. So many great people in this hobby, including on the business end. I've always been proud to be associated with it, even through some dark times brought on by a few rotten apples.
