Trae,

Awesome job as usual. I have already saved this in my favorites as everyone else should do for easy reference.

Of course it was self-serving (as are all cases of somebody linking to his own site). It wasn't intended to be rude, however; Trae asked for feedback and I merely said I didn't find what I was looking for...and then offered my own site as an example of something he could use to add if he'd like to add it.

For the record...I'd love to see Trae's site grow and will check it out again to see his progress. If it improves, I'd be glad to add it as a link because it can be a valuable reference (like Old Cardboard's site, for instance).

As for the tone of my post...I'm a native New Yorker, we are often accused of being rude when we're actually a little more direct than others. Sorry if you read into what I said and found more than what I had intended.

I like the site so far and think it is a very good start. Linking to some other sites about different sets like T206.org would be a good addition, as a viewer could get information about the cards and then find a card through ebay or a dealer. Were you thinking about adding an information section, or just leaving it as a way to search different dealers and sites?

Trae asked for feedback. Not just positive's either.
He's a long time member here, Im sure he can handle the critique. After all, it's just the internet.

Though brutally honest to some here., I didn't find the post Chris made over the top. He had the cajones to step up when many other members were deafiningly quiet.

Incidentally Trae, though I do appreciate your work and enjoyed your original T206 site... I'm not a fan of any site with a lot of dealer content either and have to agree with the NY'r in that regard. I think many of we older, grumpy and frugal collectors feel the same, but just wont say so. Steve

Thank you, Steve, right on the money.

In the last 18 hours I've received many replies, PM's, and emails through the site. The feedback, good and/or bad, is very much appreciated. Over the next few days (definitely into the weekend) I'll address and respond to each contact and thought individually, including executing the feedback by upating the site with new links, categories and information.

Thanks again.
