Let me introduce myself

Hello All,

I just recently joined the boards but I have been reading them for almost 2 decades and I
have learned quite a bit from many of you.

I am a long time collector of PSA cards and currently have almost 9700 PSA graded baseball cards
in my personal collection. It includes multiple Ken Griffey Jr. sets, Basic Topps set of several HOF
baseball players, multiple All-Star sets, as well as complete 1954,1957,1961, and 1975 Topps sets.

My current project is a PSA graded 1971 Topps set in PSA 7 or 8 (prefer 7's) and have most of the
star cards already.

I look forward to continuing to learn from the members here and hopefully I can contribute to a
few of the discussions and well as help others in their collecting needs

Thanks for your time,

Stephen

      Well, after 9700 cards I'm starting to get a feeling I might possibly be addicted.

    Welcome to the forum. Your screen name sounds very familiar to one of the HOF registry guys.



    Thanks,

    I was a member about 15-20 years ago. I joined mainly to defend myself. I had bought
    a defective card on eBay and the seller not only refused to accept a return and issue a
    refund, he posted a bunch of lies about our transaction on this board. Although PSA ended
    up banning him from the boards the experience was not pleasant and I discontinued posting here.
    I still read the boards now and then and noticed that PSA had been taking a more active interest
    in banning the more toxic posters. Once I decided to rejoin it had been so long I had to re-register.

    Your screen name is familiar as well. If you are a Griffey collector the odds are high we've chatted before.
