Default George Carlin would agree with OldJudge, I think

I have also never posted a WTB in BST. I can see that the wording OldJudge lampooned is actually highly efficient at communicating meaningful information that helps minimize time wasted making offers that would be DOA. But, I have to admit, I got a chuckle out of his point, which I took along the lines of George Carlin asking: "Why do we drive on parkways, but park on driveways?".

If you post that you are looking to buy a specific card people will show you every other card but that card LOL

Say for example you were looking for a 1965 Mickey Mantle PSA 6 Only a PSA 6. People will show you Beckett, SGC, or RAW card with all grades other then a 6.

They will say I don’t have that but I have this meaning trying to offload their junk on you. Hahahah
