Good point....

I have found Heritage Auctions to be very user friendly and their customer service, whenever I have won cards, has been great. I think they have come a long way in the last 3 years and I have no hesitation on bidding in their various auctions.
Just my 2 cents.

I am looking at threads from 2006 to revive as we speak...

Thanks Leon. I still maintain that when people are anonymous they say any outrageous thing they want. When their name is out there they will behave more respectfully.

Wow-this was a strange one to wake up to

I must admit I'm confused-is Aaron M.(who posted in Oct.2007) really gordonanalytic (Andrew Gordon) reviving this archived thread and responding to himself (under different screenname)?

Maybe I just need more coffee

No, Andrew Gordon is not Aaron M, as far as I know. Aaron M reminds me of the other 2-4 people (real people as opposed to trolls) that have been banned in the last 5 yrs. They just wouldn't let things go, even after warnings, and their sh** to equity ratio on the board was very poor. As for reviving the old thread, that is a common tactic of disgruntled people/customers. There isn't a technical rule against it but it shouldn't be done too frequently. New threads should be started, generally speaking. When the banners ads went up on this board, around 3 yrs ago, the biggest controversy was over "protection" of advertisers. While I know most personally, and consider them to be friends, I won't "protect them", and don't, as it would make the forum less effective. From those that have been on here long enough you probably won't see a lot of disagreement with what I am saying. There is a fine line between one's rights and one's responsibilities when they are part of a community. regards

Thanks for the clarification Leon

It's always tempting... and funny when it happens.

I've never had a problem with Heritage either and other than the arrogance shown on the memorabilia side of this forum I think they handle their customer relations pretty well. I would simply caution you all that just because an auction house sends your cards quickly, packages them well, has a user-friendly internet presence, etc. does not mean that the company is ethically or legally clean. I'm not referring at all to Heritage, obviously, but as an example, Mastro was the best in the business in packaging, shipping, etc., while at the same time robbing us all blind. Just don't confuse apples with oranges.
