Proudly display your winnings.

It's too early in the morning to laugh this hard.

Unfortunately Daniel did not have anything I just could not live without in this auction.

I'm still enjoying the run-around I got at his last auction...

[scooter729]

Picked up this one that I've always wanted - a red Cobb, I think? Guaranteed not trimmed so I'm good with their word!

Frank-- what is your assessment of their auction ending format ? Do we need to have Steve lobby them too ?

I can say I did not bid Daniel aka/Candiman and won’t be bidding again. Every one of his cards was not one grade off but 3-4 grades off. In fact he emailed me asking what low grades I got.

It is if someone cracks them out of holders because they think they are better and sells them for what they think or what public to think.

I saw the Jackie Robinson card I won and returned because it had creases, water staining, residue, etc. To me that would be a 3 but advertised as an Ex.

Can’t wait to see in that 3 holder.

Well it was NM in the first auction so it's coming closer to reality.

That is my biggest fear as well, when I sell NM/MT looking cards in SGC "A" holders. One was a Clemente rookie, I sold for $1,000 that looked like an '8'. I can just picture someone cracking it out and selling for for $10,000+.

You can picture? That was the clear cut definition of the Battlefield business.

Crack them out, pretend you don’t know sh*t, sell them and then block the smart people that warn others because you screw them.

Wasn’t that a great business model? It is called fck the public. And it worked until way too many complaints.

And today’s business model: create bullsht auction house, buy cards on eBay (again), crack out, pretend you don’t know anything about cards or grades, throw in some bible talk and then fck the public! As long as you mention Church you are “perceived” as honest in your own head!

Plus, they get a 20% BP when they sell through the auction house.

Ed said no such thing.
