I don't think there is any dispute that Bruce has a pretty nice collection. I've seen the video, and have seen a couple of things that are pretty incredible (Boston Garter uncut strip, for example.)

I'm also unsure that he closes 3 new deals every time someone makes fun of him.

I also know that he is a Luddite when it comes to 21st century technology. A few years ago he wanted a copy of something I have, but needed me to print it and mail it because he hadn't mastered downloading electronic images. I know on the rare occasion he has offered something for the board to look at, he would forward it to Leon and have him post it.

Given the depth of his understanding on the "Archive" issue, I'm OK that he doesn't try to post images.

Then again, if Hemingway were alive today, he would be, too.

As Jim mentioned the Group has sent me some pics to post before. They come over as weird file types but after working with them a bit I was able to post them. Here is one from their collection..

Rob D.: Here is the post I think you are referring to. The poster? Archive! Coincidence? I think not.

Thanks, David! It's even better than I remembered. Not "software" but "posting mechanism."

Good times, good times.

Here's one of the pretty nice items.

That Boston Garter is of course spectacular.

This is the funniest thread ever -- and I actually think Bruce is laughing a bit about it. Having met Bruce in person I can tell all that he is a very likeable guy. Of course, his owning that uncut BG strip which includes Hal Chase makes him extremely likeable in my eyes.

Haven't been around long enough to know any of this. Thanks for the you tube hit and the pics of those items. They are great. I assumed it was all talk and no action because I always hear alot of you giving him a hard time. I am confused as to why he has a you tube video but can't work a pic download. I read the post about why he doesn't post pics but that sounds more like a run around. The video really didn't show anything spectacular either, but the pics did.

Well I hope we all get to see more of this collection or any others out there. I am aware most of us have a pic of one of or best items or rarest on our computer (hopefully they are locked away for safety reasons). Sounds like a good thread to start. Would love to see them.

Nothing is wrong with this board. Nothing is gone. You act like an idiot...anymore questions?

Bigb13,

I'm not sure what you're looking for. All of your posts are still here. Nothing is gone. I responded, politely, to your question...twice. The answer was pretty simplistic, because the question was pretty easy. You didn't ask any additional questions.

What else do you want? More opinions on how to get your money back? What do you expect from the board?

Truth is, this wasn't a thread you started. How can you complain that it's gone off track?

Now, if Archive complains, we'll listen.

Not to worry Al. The first and third ones auctioned went to the same seller. And the second one, which went to Bigb13 has also been delivered.

I do find it interesting that the guy who was mad at everyone, received his card, and left positive feedback.

A month ago he wanted to know where to go to get his money back (GAI, Ebay, Paypal, the seller?)

Now, he's happy with the card.
