JP, there is an auction house under criminal investigation for ripping off hobbyists for millions of dollars, there are card doctors trimming thousands of cards a year, there is a psychotic, apparently neo-Nazi collector named Scott Elkins who lives in a trailer and gets off on violating roosters, and you think that Rob and Jim are the "perfect example of everything that is wrong with this hobby?" Dude, really?

Rob and Jim are examples of what is wrong with the hobby. Disrespectful, belittling others. Fraternity mentality that yields "that guy" who shows up at his high school reunions and doesn't realize everyone else has grown up. You won't see me throwing the first stone against anyone... |

Ha! Rob is what's wrong with the hobby. I have been promoted to what's wrong with humanity!

Uh, OK.......
IMO Besides "Doyle", and "Broadleaf 460"..... "Rare" and "T206" should never be used in the same sentence. |

Frank- 100% agreed! Prediction... Prices may start to come down accross the board for the t206 set. There are just too many of them.

I don't think the T206's prices will come down too much,but wouldn't mind if they did-I still have a long way to go
![]() It is true,lots of other cards that seem way rarer than T206's. Sincerely,Clayton |

![]() Just out of curiousity, during your long duration on the board, who have I ever been disrespectful or belittling to, besides Dorskind and you? (And don't count me calling Rob an asshat. I only do that when it's true.) |

None of them asked questions when another board member bought a card on Ebay for @$250, sold it to JP on the BST for @160, and then promptly bought it back from JP on Ebay a week later for @185. (numbers are estimates.) None of them commented when he demanded that a thread be deleted/locked because it asked questions about one of his completed ebay auctions. None of them laughed pubicly when JP bought a card in early March, flapped in the wind for 3-4 days, changing his mind multiple times, then flipped it in REA in April. Yes. I am everything that is wrong with this hobby. I hang my head in shame! ![]() Last edited by Jim VB; 04-02-2010 at 11:13 PM. |

To be fair, Jim, maybe he sells the cards to his sons on Ebay.

Jim, you're an a**hole. No two ways about it....you've already been warned by Leon once about talking about my kids (my son is 4 years old) so I'm hoping you just blew your second chance.

You're on my ignore list for now. I'm guessing you've made the roster with other people as well in the past. I strongly suggest you never mention my kids again. Banishment will be the least of your concerns. This is my last post on the subject. (Here's where you can make one of your smartass remarks like "how will you be able to read when I talk about your kids when I'm on your ignore list?" Others will let me know if you do, and that will be enough.) |

Calvindog, it would be foolish for a mailman to assume that all dogs just bark and don't bite, would it not?
