Well here it is boys and girls, the hobby at it's worst. Greed and jealousy has reared its ugly head. I hate to see when people jump on the morally right pedestal just make them seem like an angel. This hobby is just one big sin, with all the coveting, desire, and greed rolled up in a big wad of $100's. I don't even post hear anymore because of all the bickering, complaining about grading companies, and what's fake on ebay, but I read everyday. I can hear the reply now good reddens. I have just recently found the chat room. It's a lot more civil and fun. I recommend you come and check it out.

I just wanted to defend the seller here as he is a nice guy and isn't trying to screw anyone. I know that's not what is being questioned here but what is, ending an item early, I don't believe one person here when they say would never or have never tried to end an auction early with other bids on it. Now I personally believe that you have to be high bidder at the time you get the auction closed, but hay that's what I think. Do I make the rules, YES, but just for my hobby fun. WOW that was weird, it's been a long time seance I have wrote hobby and fun in the same sentence. Like I said, it's like a swap-meet, they (the seller) have the right to do what ever they want with THERE items. I have no problem with other people emailing the seller with a higher offers, the problem I have is when they email them with a fake offer and when they get what they want and the seller re-lists THEY DON'T EVEN PLACE ONE BID!!!!!

Oh well this is where cards have gone right now so play the game or change sports right.

By the way I would also like to say that Dan has been nothing but kind to me in all my dealings with him. He and his Father brought back a lot of great memories of me and my family collecting together.

The funny thing is so much is lost when you don't have the personal interaction anymore, and when you do finally meet at the National you A. Have so much resentment built up you never really get to find out that they are great people or B. You sit down and talk about collecting 33 Goudeys with a guy who got them straight from the pack back in 33.

Man look at this thing sorry for the BLAH BLAH BLAH I'm done posting again. I'm sure I won't be missed. I'll be in the chat room if you need me HEHE

CHATers RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
