I had shifted to buying the stale, rock hard gum that used to be included in the packs. But after breaking a tooth, I had to exit the hobby completely.

I'm looking forward to the episode where investors in an AH buy Jordan rookies from the AH for eye-catching, publicity worthy sums— and then the card subsequently proceeds to struggle to garner half that record sum. Or did that episode already air?

Hmmm.. those first sales sound a bit incestuous.

Let's Wait and See
I'm of the opinion that it is only fair to wait and see. Yes, when you listen to that Don West youtube segment posted earlier you can't help but think of Mr. Goldin as a huckster. But people mature, change and evolve.
IF the show actually gets on the air it comes with a huge responsibility. The news release doesn't make it clear what the show will be like on a regular basis. Here's my biggest concern. I've read a couple of "behind the scenes" articles about reality shows. One point that comes up is the producers wanting to interject what I will call "false conflict" to keep people watching. I just hope that if the producers sit down with Mr. Goldin and ask him to say or do something that he knows is downright unethical that he has the intestinal fortitude to say, "No. I won't go there. That is wrong and not what the hobby is all about." I am sure he will be asked to cross a line. How he reacts in these producer meetings (that we will never see) will be critical. I think it's fair to say we've all been tested at some point in our lives when it comes to our personal ethics. I can only hope that Mr. Goldin doesn't let the hobby down. We shall see. |

Goldin show
I am looking forward to it. I hope the emphasis will be on the classic cards rather than all the created rarities recently. Anything that helps the hobby stay popular is fine with me. If it promotes Goldin and it will, that is fine. We are part of a wonderful hobby, investment, or whatever else you want to call it.

It is May 9th.
I just received an automated email from Goldin Auction to notify me on my bidding status for their "April Premium Card Auction" ending April 24th. And most of the times I attempt to view their multi-card lots, their website freezes on both my iPhone & laptop. Maybe Ken should get his ass off of TV and fix his damn computer issues.
